We consider F-theory compactifications on a mirror pair of elliptic Calabi-Yau threefolds. This yields two different six-dimensional theories, each of them being nonperturbatively equivalent to some compactification of heterotic strings on…
We study an odd-dimensional analogue of the Goldberg conjecture for compact Einstein almost K\"ahler manifolds. We give an explicit non-compact example of an Einstein almost cok\"ahler manifold that is not cok\"ahler. We prove that compact…
In this paper, we first prove that a compact K\"ahler manifold is projective if it satisfies certain quasi-positive curvature conditions, including quasi-positive $S_2^\perp,\, S_2^+,\,\mbox{Ric}_3^\perp, \,\mbox{Ric}_3^+$ or…
We consider some conditions under which a smooth projective variety X is actually the projective space. We also extend to the case of positive characteristic some results in the theory of vector bundle adjunction. We use methods and…
Using examples of compact complex 3-manifolds which arise as twistor spaces, we show that the class of compact complex manifolds bimeromorphic to K\"ahler manifolds is not stable under small deformations of complex structure.
We formulate a concrete geometric approximation hypothesis (Hypothesis~BB) asserting that codimension-$2$ Hodge classes on a smooth projective threefold can be realized as specializations of families whose general members are…
We record two remarks. First, for a compact K\"ahler manifold with semi-positive holomorphic sectional curvature, the rational dimension of the MRC fibration is exactly the number of non-truly-flat directions. Second, for compact K\"ahler…
We study the diameters of axion moduli spaces, focusing primarily on type IIB compactifications on Calabi-Yau three-folds. In this case, we derive a stringent bound on the diameter in the large volume region of parameter space for…
We study Mori fiber spaces over a two-dimensional base which satisfy the semistability assumption. As an application of our technique we give a new proof of the existence of semistable 3-fold flips.
We study the class of compact complex manifolds whose first Chern class vanishes in the Bott-Chern cohomology. This class includes all manifolds with torsion canonical bundle, but it is strictly larger. After making some elementary remarks,…
We prove that the LMMP works for projective threefolds over function fields of characteristic $p>5$ when the canonical divisor is not pseudo-effective. In the process we show that ACC for log canonical thresholds holds in complete…
Compactifications of type II theories on Calabi-Yau threefolds including electric and magnetic background fluxes are discussed. We derive the bosonic part of the four-dimensional low energy effective action and show that it is a…
We investigate compact complex manifolds of dimension three and second Betti number $b_2(X) = 0$. We are interested in the algebraic dimension $a(X)$, which is by definition the transcendence degree of the field of meromorphic functions…
We prove that if a compact smooth polarized complex manifold admits in the corresponding Hodge K\"ahler class a conformally K\"ahler, Einstein--Maxwell metric, or more generally, a K\"ahler metric of constant $(\xi, a, p)$-scalar curvature,…
We construct a family of 1-convex threefolds, with exceptional curve C of type (0,-2), which are not embeddable in C^m \times CP_n. In order to show that they are not Kaehler we exhibit a real 3-dimensional chain A whose boundary is the…
In this paper, we consider $n$-dimensional compact K$\ddot{a}$hler manifold with semi-ample canonical line bundle under the long time solution of K$\ddot{a}$hler Ricci Flow. In particular, if the Kodaira dimension is one, Ricci curvature…
In this paper, we study MRC fibrations of compact K\"ahler manifolds with partially semi-positive curvature. We first prove that a compact K\"ahler manifold is rationally connected if its tangent bundle is BC-$p$ positive for all $1\leq…
Our main goal in this article is to prove a new extension theorem for sections of the canonical bundle of a weakly pseudoconvex K\"ahler manifold with values in a line bundle endowed with a possibly singular metric. We also give some…
The conullity of a curvature tensor is the codimension of its kernel. We consider the cases of conullity two in any dimension and conullity three in dimension four. We show that these conditions are compatible with non-negative sectional…
In an earlier work, we investigated some consequences of the existence of a K\"ahler metric of negative holomorphic sectional curvature on a projective manifold. In the present work, we extend our results to the case of semi-negative (i.e.,…
