The recent result of Strominger, Yau and Zaslow relating mirror symmetry to the quantum field theory notion of T-duality is reinterpreted as providing a way of geometrically characterizing which Calabi-Yau manifolds have mirror partners.…
A symplectically invariant definition of special K\"ahler geometry is discussed. Certain aspects hereof are illustrated by means of Calabi-Yau moduli spaces.
We give an account of old and new results concerning many types of non-K\"ahler metrics, with focus on the problem of their coexistence on compact complex manifolds, and their behaviour at deformations and blow-up. We also describe a…
We study the Calabi-Yau phase of a certain class of (0,2) models. These are conjectured to be equivalent to exact (0,2) superconformal field theories which have been constructed recently. Using the methods of toric geometry we discuss in a…
We establish the existence of complete K\"ahler metrics of semi-positive holomorphic sectional curvature with many zeroes in an interesting and natural geometric setting. Specifically, we use Calabi's Ansatz in the form due to Koiso-Sakane…
In this paper, we extend our geometrical derivation of expansion coefficients of mirror maps by localization computation to the case of toric manifolds with two K\"ahler forms. Especially, we take Hirzebruch surfaces F_{0}, F_{3} and…
The limiting procedure of special Kahler manifolds to their rigid limit is studied for moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau manifolds in the neighbourhood of certain singularities. In two examples we consider all the periods in and around the rigid…
We systematically construct a class of two-dimensional $(2,2)$ supersymmetric gauged linear sigma models with phases in which a continuous subgroup of the gauge group is totally unbroken. We study some of their properties by employing a…
This is a double exposure of the probabilistic construction of Kahler-Einstein metrics on a complex projective algebraic variety X - where the Kahler-Einstein metric emerges from a canonical random point process on X - and the variational…
We present closed form expressions for the ranks of all cohomology groups of holomorphic line bundles on several Calabi-Yau threefolds realised as complete intersections in products of projective spaces. The formulae have been obtained by…
Given two Calabi--Yau threefolds which are believed to constitute a mirror pair, there are very precise predictions about the enumerative geometry of rational curves on one of the manifolds which can be made by performing calculations on…
This paper concerns the explicit construction of extremal Kaehler metrics on total spaces of projective bundles, which have been studied in many places. We present a unified approach, motivated by the theory of hamiltonian 2-forms (as…
We study quantum Kahler moduli space of Calabi-Yau fourfolds. Our analysis is based on the recent work by Jockers et al. which gives a novel method to compute the Kahler potential on the quantum Kahler moduli space of Calabi-Yau manifold.…
We construct many new examples of complete Calabi-Yau metrics of maximal volume growth on certain smoothings of Cartesian products of Calabi-Yau cones with smooth cross-sections. A detailed description of the geometry at infinity of these…
Some curvature properties of Kahler manifolds of indefinite metrics are studied. Analogues of a Kulkarni's theorem are proved for such manifolds.
A numerical framework for approximating $\mathrm{G}_2$-structure 3-forms on contact Calabi-Yau manifolds is presented. The approach proceeds in three stages: first, existing neural network models are employed to compute an approximate…
This article studies Kummer K3 surfaces close to the orbifold limit. We improve upon estimates for the Calabi-Yau metrics due to R. Kobayashi. As an application, we study stable closed geodesics. We use the metric estimates to show how…
Based on the method by [K\"uc95], we give a procedure to list up all complete intersection Calabi--Yau manifolds with respect to direct sums of irreducible homogeneous vector bundles on Grassmannians for each dimension. In particular, we…
This is an expository paper which aims to give a simple proof of the existence of Ricci-flat metrics on certain K3 surfaces, as an illustration of general "glueing" techniques.
This article finds constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics on certain compact complex surfaces. The surfaces considered are those admitting a holomorphic submersion to a curve, with fibres of genus at least 2. The proof is via an adiabatic…
