We prove the rationality of the K\"ahler cone and the positivity of $c_2(X)$, if $X$ is a Calabi-Yau-threefold with $\rho(X)=2$ and has an embedding into a ${\bb P}^n$-bundle over ${\bb P}^m$ in the cases $(n,m)=(1,3),(3,1)$. The case…
We prove the general diagram method theorem valid for the quite large class of 3-folds with Q-factorial singularities (see Basic Theorem 1.3.2 and also Theorem 2.2.6). This gives the generalization of our results about Fano 3-folds with…
For the Calabi-Yau threefolds $X$ constructed by C. Schoen as fiber products of generic rational elliptic surfaces, we show that the action of the automorphism group of $X$ on the K\"ahler cone of $X$ has a rationally polyhedral fundamental…
We classify all smooth Calabi-Yau threefolds of Picard number two that have a general hypersurface Cox ring.
We ask about the simply connected compact smooth 6-manifolds which can support structures of Calabi-Yau threefolds. In particular, we study the interesting case of Calabi-Yau threefolds $X$ with second betti number 3. We have a cup-product…
We prove a type of the Lefschetz hyperplane section theorem on Q-Fano 3-folds with Picard number one and $1/2(1,1,1)$-singularities by using some degeneration method. As a byproduct, we obtain a new example of a Calabi-Yau 3-fold $X$ with…
We prove that the automorphism group of an odd dimensional Calabi-Yau manifold of Picard number two is always a finite group. This makes a sharp contrast to the automorphism groups of K3 surfaces and hyperk\"ahler manifolds and birational…
In this paper, we will construct new examples of derived equivalent Calabi--Yau 3-folds with Picard number greater than one. We also study their mirror Calabi--Yau manifolds and find that they are given by Schoen's fiber products of…
We study Galois rational maps between smooth projective varieties with trivial canonical bundle, with a particular interest in the case where the codomain is Hyper-K\"ahler. We obtain results about the birational geometry and the Galois…
First, we classify Calabi-Yau threefolds with infinite fundamental group by means of their minimal splitting coverings introduced by Beauville, and deduce that the nef cone is a rational simplicial cone and any rational nef divisor is…
We study type III contractions of Calabi-Yau threefolds containing a ruled surface over a smooth curve. We discuss the conditions necessary for the image threefold to by smoothable. We describe the change in Hodge numbers caused by this…
Inspired by well-known examples of hyperk\"ahler manifolds, we show that any hyperk\"ahler manifold $X$ of K3$^{[n]}$-type with Picard number $\rho(X) \geq 4$ is always isomorphic to a moduli space of twisted stable sheaves on a K3 surface.…
We study a projective Calabi-Yau threefold which has been constructed in an earlier paper. It is rigid and has Picard number two. We construct a pair of divisors which give a basis of the Picard group and determine all intersection numbers…
In this paper, we study the degeneration and stability of K\"ahler structures on Calabi--Yau manifolds, namely compact K\"ahler manifolds with trivial canonical bundles, from the viewpoint of deformation theory and Hodge theory. Using the…
A bidouble cover is a flat $G:=\left(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\right)^2$-Galois cover $X \rightarrow Y$. In this situation there exist three intermediate quotients $Y_1,Y_2$ and $Y_3$ which correspond to the three subgroups…
We consider a compact Kaehler manifold whose dual Kaehler cone contains a rational interior point. The general problem we have in mind is how far the manifold is from being projective; i.e. we ask for the algebraic dimension. We prove e.g.…
We derive a canonical symmetry reduction associated to a compact non-K\"ahler Bismut-Hermitian-Einstein manifold. In real dimension $6$, the transverse geometry is conformally K\"ahler, and we give a complete description in terms of a…
This note is a report on the observation that the Enriques-Fano threefolds with terminal cyclic quotient singularities admit Calabi-Yau threefolds as their double coverings. We calculate the invariants of those Calabi-Yau threefolds when…
Let $X$ be a complex projective variety with only canonical singularities and with trivial canonical bundle. Let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $X$. Assume that the pair $(X,L)$ is the flat limit of a family of smooth polarized Calabi-Yau…
We show that for any smooth Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ of Picard number $2$ with infinite birational automorphism group, the numerical dimension $\kappa_\sigma$ of the extremal rays of the movable cone of $X$ is $\frac{3}{2}$. Furthermore, we…
