In this paper we illustrate an algorithmic procedure which allows to build projective wonderful models for the complement of a toric arrangement in a n-dimensional algebraic torus T. The main step of the construction is a combinatorial…
In this article we investigate diffeomorphism classes of Calabi-Yau threefolds. In particular, we focus on those embedded in toric Fano manifolds. Along the way, we give various examples and conclude with a curious remark regarding mirror…
We determine the cone of nef divisors on the Igusa and Voronoi compactifications of the moduli space of principally polarised abelian 4-folds. We also show that the canonical bundle on the Igusa compactification of A_4(n) is ample for n at…
We classify contact toric 3-manifolds up to contactomorphism, through explicit descriptions, building off of work by Lerman [Lerman03]. As an application, we classify all contact structures on 3-manifolds that can be realised as a concave…
This paper studies invariants of 3-manifolds derived from certain fin ite dimensional Hopf algebras. The invariants are based on right integrals for these algebras. It is shown that the resulting class of invariants is distinct from the…
The main result of this paper is that every (separated) toric variety which has a semigroup structure compatible with multiplication on the underlying torus is necessarily affine. In the course of proving this statement, we also give a…
We present a smooth, complete toric threefold with no nontrivial nef line bundles. This is a counterexample to a recent conjecture of Fujino.
In this work, we construct some irreducible components of the space of two-dimensional holomorphic foliations on $\mathbb{P}^n$ associated to some algebraic representations of the affine Lie algebra $\mathfrak{aff}(\mathbb{C})$. We give a…
We construct and study a natural homeomorphism between the moduli space of polynomial cubic differentials of degree d on the complex plane and the space of projective equivalence classes of oriented convex polygons with d+3 vertices. This…
Using the theory of dimer models Broomhead proved that every 3-dimensional Gorenstein affine toric variety Spec R admits a toric non-commutative crepant resolution (NCCR). We give an alternative proof of this result by constructing a…
Through making use of a Borel measure and a piecewise-Riemannian inner scalar product, it is shown that over a Lorentzian manifold every three diffeomorphisms generate a conformal space, whose elements are smooth vector-valued functions…
This is an outline of work in progress concerning an algebro-geometric form of the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture. We introduce a limited type of degeneration of Calabi-Yau manifolds, which we call toric degenerations. For these, the…
I extend the definitions of schemes relative to monoids with zero - and therefore, toric geometry - to the world of formal schemes. This expands the usual framework to include, for instance, models for Mumford's degenerating Abelian…
We classify non-algebraic compact K\"ahler threefolds admitting an endomorphism $f: X \to X$ of degree at least two.
In this paper, we give a method to describe the numerical class of a torus invariant surface on a projective toric manifold. As applications, we can classify toric 2-Fano manifolds of Picard number 2 or of dimension at most 4.
In this manuscript we sharpen the lower bound on the codimension of the irreducible components of the Noether-Lefschetz locus of surfaces in projective toric threefolds given in [BG17]. We also provide a simpler proof of Theorem 4.11 in…
We associate to each toric vector bundle on a toric variety X(Delta) a "branched cover" of the fan Delta together with a piecewise-linear function on the branched cover. This construction generalizes the usual correspondence between toric…
Toric quiver varieties (moduli spaces of quiver representations) are studied. Given a quiver and a weight there is an associated quasiprojective toric variety together with a canonical embedding into projective space. It is shown that for a…
There exist exactly 166 4-dimensional reflexive polytopes such that the corresponding 4-dimensional Gorenstein toric Fano varieties have at worst terminal singularities in codimension 3 and their anticanonical divisor is divisible by 2. For…
Firstly, we see that the bases of the miniversal deformations of isolated $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein toric singularities are quite restricted. In particular, we classify the analytic germs of embedding dimension $\leq 2$ which are the bases of…
