We prove a new rigidity criterion for families of polarized Calabi-Yau manifolds. Motivated by known non-rigid examples, we conjecture that a family over a quasi-projective curve is rigid if it admits a smooth compactification whose…
The main result of this note is an effective uniform bound for the number of deformation types of certain nonisotrivial families of canonically polarized manifolds. It extends the author's earlier such bound for the classical Shafarevich…
We consider degenerations of complex projective Calabi--Yau varieties and study the singularities of $L^2$, Quillen and BCOV metrics on Hodge and determinant bundles. The dominant and subdominant terms in the expansions of the metrics close…
We establish the geometric Shafarevich boundedness conjecture for the moduli stack of stable minimal models, including in particular the moduli stack of KSB pairs.
We study Calabi-Yau manifolds constructed as double covers of ${\mathbb P}^3$ branched along an octic surface. We give a list of 85 examples corresponding to arrangements of eight planes defined over ${\mathbb Q}$. The Hodge numbers are…
Motivated by the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture, we study fibre spaces whose total space has trivial canonical bundle. Especially, we are interest in Calabi-Yau varieties with fibre structure. In this paper, we only consider semi-stable…
We study the predictions of mirror symmetry for the 1-parameter family of Calabi-Yau 3-folds $\tilde{X}$ with hodge numbers $h^{11}=31,h^{21}=1$ constructed in \cite{BN}. We calculate the Picard-Fuchs differential equation associated to…
The moduli stacks of Calabi-Yau varieties are known to enjoy several hyperbolicity properties. The best results have so far been proven using sophisticated analytic tools such as complex Hodge theory. Although the situation is very…
In this paper we first study the moduli spaces related to Calabi-Yau manifolds. We then apply the results to the following problem. Let $C$ be a fixed Riemann surface with fixed finite number of points on it. Given a CY manifold with fixed…
We formulate a version of the integral Hodge conjecture for categories, prove the conjecture for two-dimensional Calabi-Yau categories which are suitably deformation equivalent to the derived category of a K3 or abelian surface, and use…
Motivated by Lang-Vojta's conjectures on hyperbolic varieties, we prove a new version of the Shafarevich conjecture in which we establish the finiteness of pointed families of polarized varieties. We then give an arithmetic application to…
For any degenerating Calabi-Yau family, we introduce new limit space which we call galaxy, whose dense subspace is the disjoint union of countably infinite open Calabi-Yau varieties, parametrized by the rational points of the…
We give a simplified and more algebraic proof of the finiteness of the families of Calabi-Yau n-folds with non-vanishing of Yukawa-coupling over a fixed base curve and with fixed degeneration locus. We also give a generalization of this…
The aim of this paper is to construct families of Calabi--Yau 3-folds without boundary points with maximal unipotent monodromy and to describe the variation of their Hodge structures. In particular five families are constructed. In all…
In this article, we prove a rigidity criterion for period maps of admissible variations of graded-polarizable mixed Hodge structure, and establish rigidity in a number of cases, including families of quasi-projective curves, projective…
Given a polarized family of varieties over the unit disc, smooth except over the origin and with smooth fibers Calabi-Yau, we show that the origin lies at finite Weil-Petersson distance if and only if after a finite base change the family…
We show that the number of deformation types of canonically polarized manifolds over an arbitrary variety with proper singular locus is finite, and that this number is uniformly bounded in any finite type family of base varieties. As a…
We algebraically prove K-stability of polarized Calabi-Yau varieties and canonically polarized varieties with mild singularities. In particular, the} "stable varieties" introduced by Kollar-Shepherd-Barron and Alexeev, which form compact…
Calabi--Yau manifolds have risen to prominence in algebraic geometry, in part because of mirror symmetry and enumerative geometry. After Bershadsky--Cecotti--Ooguri--Vafa (BCOV), it is expected that genus 1 curve counting on a Calabi--Yau…
Complex structure moduli of a Calabi-Yau threefold in $N=1$ supersymmetric heterotic compactifications can be stabilized by holomorphic vector bundles. The stabilized moduli are determined by a computation of Atiyah class. In this paper, we…
