We define an integer-valued virtual count of embedded pseudo-holomorphic curves of two times a primitive homology class and arbitrary genus in symplectic Calabi--Yau $3$-folds, which can be viewed as an extension of Taubes' Gromov…

A short, fairly self-contained proof is given of the Poincar\'e Conjecture. In the previous version there was an error on Page 8. This gap has now been filled.

We study trisections of smooth, compact non-orientable 4-manifolds, and introduce trisections of non-orientable 4-manifolds with boundary. In particular, we prove a non-orientable analogue of a classical theorem of Laudenbach-Po\'enaru. As…

We study type III contractions of Calabi-Yau threefolds containing a ruled surface over a smooth curve. We discuss the conditions necessary for the image threefold to by smoothable. We describe the change in Hodge numbers caused by this…

We discuss two conjectures. (I) For each x_1,...,x_n \in R (C) there exist y_1,...,y_n \in R (C) such that \forall i \in {1,...,n} |y_i| \leq 2^{2^{n-2}} \forall i \in {1,...,n} (x_i=1 \Rightarrow y_i=1) \forall i,j,k \in {1,...,n}…

For Poincare series of binary polyhedral groups and Coxeter polynomials there are obtained statements close to the Euclid algorithm and orthogonal polynomials theory: generalized Ebeling formula, decompositions into ramified continued…

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…

Given sphere preserving (M\"obius) transformations in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space one can use the Poincar\'e extension to obtain sphere preserving transformations in a half space of $n+1$ dimensions. The Poincar\'e extension is usually…

We show that the Poincare polynomial associated with the orbifold cell decomposition of the moduli space of smooth algebraic curves with distinct marked points satisfies a topological recursion formula of the Eynard-Orantin type. The…

In this note we construct conifold transitions between several Calabi-Yau threefolds given by Pfaffians in weighted projective spaces and Calabi-Yau threefolds appearing as complete intersections in toric varieties. We use the obtained…

The similarity between the Polya's conjecture and the Bonomol'nyi bound remind us to consider a physical approach to Polya's conjecture. We conjecture a duality between the waves and the soliton solutions on the surface. We consider the…

In this article, we study the generalized Poincare problem from the opposite perspective, by establishing lower bounds on the degree of the vector field in terms of invariants of the variety.

We establish a C^0 a priori bound on the solutions of the quaternionic Calabi-Yau equation (of Monge-Ampere type) on compact HKT manifolds with a locally flat hypercomplex structure. As an intermediate step, we prove a quaternionic version…

We prove Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture for local toric Calabi-Yau manifolds. It's also proved that the local Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of a given class at large genus vanish.

Our main result offers a new (quite systematic) way of deriving bounds for the cup-length of Poincare spaces over fields; we outline a general research program based on this result. For the oriented Grassmann manifolds, already a limited…

We describe examples of computations of Picard-Fuchs operators for families of Calabi-Yau manifolds based on the expansion of a period near a conifold point. We find examples of operators without a point of maximal unipotent monodromy, thus…

We introduce some new algebraic structures arising naturally in the geometry of Calabi-Yau manifolds and mirror symmetry. We give a universal construction of Calabi-Yau algebras in terms of a noncommutative symplectic DG algebra resolution.…

Gromov-Witten theory is used to define an enumerative geometry of curves in Calabi-Yau 4-folds. The main technique is to find exact solutions to moving multiple cover integrals. The resulting invariants are analogous to the BPS counts of…

In this paper we will prove the Calabi-Yau conjectures for embedded surfaces. In fact, we will prove considerably more. The Calabi-Yau conjectures about surfaces date back to the 1960s. Much work has been done on them over the past four…

In this article, we summarize combinatorial description of complete intersection Calabi-Yau threefolds in Hibi toric varieties. Such Calabi-Yau threefolds have at worst conifold singularities, and are often smoothable to non-singular…
