Non-birational Calabi-Yau threefolds that are derived equivalent

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

We argue that the existence of genus one fibrations with multisections of high degree on certain Calabi-Yau threefolds implies the existence of pairs of such varieties that are not birational, but are derived equivalent. It also (likely) implies the existence of non-birational counterexamples to the Torelli problem for Calabi-Yau threefolds.
