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…

Given a compact Kaehler manifold, we consider the complement U of a divisor with normal crossings. We study the variety of unitary representations of the fundamental group of U with certain restrictions related to the divisor. We show that…

Convex hexagons that can tile the plane have been classified into three types. For the generic cases (not necessarily convex) of the three types and two other special cases, we classify tilings of the plane under the assumption that all…

Twisted K-theory on a manifold X, with twisting in the 3rd integral cohomology, is dis- cussed in the case when X is a product of a circle T and a manifold M. The twist is assumed to be decomposable as a cup product of the basic integral…

We study holomorphic 2-forms on projective (or compact Kaehler) threefolds not of general type and prove that in almost all cases the 2-form is created by some standard process. This means roughly that every 2-form is induced by a…

In this paper, we study the deformation theory of degenerate algebraic curves on singular varieties which appear as the degenerate limit of families of varieties. For this purpose, we systematically develop a new method to calculate the…

We show that a weight variety, which is a quotient of a flag variety by the maximal torus, admits a flat degeneration to a toric variety. In particular, we show that the moduli spaces of spatial polygons degenerate to polarized toric…

We develop the deformation-obstruction calculus for morphisms of complexes with a fixed lift of the codomain, to derived categories of flat nilpotent deformations of abelian categories. As an application, we give an alternative proof that…

First, we shall formulate and prove Theorem of Lie-Kolchin type for a cone and derive some algebro-geometric consequences. Next, inspired by a recent result of Dinh and Sibony we pose a conjecture of Tits type for a group of automorphisms…

Let $(X,\check{X})$ be a mirror pair of a complex torus $X$ and its mirror partner $\check{X}$. This mirror pair is described as the trivial special Lagrangian torus fibrations $X\rightarrow B$ and $\check{X}\rightarrow B$ on the same base…

We develop the deformation theory of Calabi-Yau threefolds, by which we mean 3-dimensional complex manifolds with a nowhere-vanishing holomorphic 3-form, on manifolds with boundary. The boundary data is a closed, real 3-form on the…

The category of exploded torus fibrations is an extension of the category of smooth manifolds in which some adiabatic limits look smooth. (For example, the limits considered in tropical geometry appear smooth, also degenerations…

First three sections of this overview paper cover classical topics of deformation theory of associative algebras and necessary background material. We then analyze algebraic structures of the Hochschild cohomology and describe the relation…

This note discusses recent new approaches to studying flopping curves on 3-folds. In a joint paper, the author and Michael Wemyss introduced a 3-fold invariant, the contraction algebra, which may be associated to such curves. It…

We consider representations of tensors as sums of decomposable tensors or, equivalently, decomposition of multilinear forms into one--forms. In this short note we show that there exists a particular finite strongly orthogonal decomposition…

We study multi-parameters deformations of isolated singularity function-germs on either a subanalytic set or a complex analytic spaces. We prove that if such a deformation has no coalescing of singular points, then it has constant…

In this paper, we investigate the topology of a class of non-K\"ahler compact complex manifolds generalizing that of Hopf and Calabi-Eckmann manifolds. These manifolds are diffeomorphic to special systems of real quadrics in $\Bbb C^n$…

The purpose of these notes is to present a fairly complete proof of the classification Theorem for compact surfaces. Other presentations are often quite informal (see the references in Chapter V) and we have tried to be more rigorous. Our…

We discuss deformations of orbifold singularities on tilted tori in the context of Type IIA orientifold model building with D6-branes on special Lagrangian cycles. Starting from $T^6/(\mathbb{Z}_2 \times \mathbb{Z}_2)$, we mod out an…

Let $\mathcal{K}$ be the space of properly embedded minimal tori in quotients of $\R^3$ by two independent translations, with any fixed (even) number of parallel ends. After an appropriate normalization, we prove that $\mathcal{K}$ is a…
