We study canonical and pluricanonical maps of varieties isogenous to a product of curves, i.e., quotients of the form $X = (C_1 \times \dots \times C_n)/G$ with $g(C_i)\ge 2$ and $G$ acting freely. For this purpose, we provide a technical…
An invariant kernel for the pluricanonical system of a projective manifold of general type is introduced. Using this kernel we prove that the Yau volume form on a smooth projective variety has seminegative Ricci curvature. As a biproduct we…
We develop a technique to study curves in a variety which has a degeneration into some union of varieties. The class of such varieties is very broad, but the theory becomes particularly useful when the variety has a degeneration into a…
In this note we speculate about the structure of maximal product subvarieties in moduli stacks of Calabi-Yau manifolds. We discuss examples for quintic hypersurfaces in the four dimensional projective space.
In this paper we study \emph{threefolds isogenous to a product of mixed type} i.e. quotients of a product of three compact Riemann surfaces $C_i$ of genus at least two by the action of a finite group $G$, which is free, but not diagonal. In…
In this article we present a formula for the plurigenera of minimal models of nondegenerate toric hypersurfaces, which is valid in arbitrary dimension and which expresses these invariants through lattice points on the Fine interior. From…
This article discusses the geometric application of the method of multiplier ideal sheaves. It first briefly describes its application to effective problems in algebraic geometry and then presents and explains its application to the…
This is a short expository note about Calabi-Yau manifolds and degenerations of their Ricci-flat metrics.
We investigate a method of construction of Calabi--Yau manifolds, that is, by smoothing normal crossing varieties. We develop some theories for calculating the Picard groups of the Calabi--Yau manifolds obtained in this method. Some…
A product-quotient surface is the minimal resolution of the singularities of the quotient of a product of two curves by the action of a finite group acting separately on the two factors. We classify all minimal product-quotient surfaces of…
In this paper we will prove that for a threefold of general type and large volume the second plurigenera is positive and the fifth canonical map is birational.
We construct an algebraic variety by resolving singularities of a quintic Calabi-Yau threefold. The middle cohomology of the threefold is shown to contain a piece coming from a pair of elliptic surfaces. The resulting quotient is a…
In this article we suggest a new approach to the systematic, computer-aided construction and to the classification of product-quotient surfaces, introducing a new invariant, the integer gamma, which depends only on the singularities of the…
In this article we study combinatorial degenerations of minimal surfaces of Kodaira dimension 0 over local fields, and in particular show that the `type' of the degeneration can be read off from the monodromy operator acting on a suitable…
This note is a report on the observation that the Enriques-Fano threefolds with terminal cyclic quotient singularities admit Calabi-Yau threefolds as their double coverings. We calculate the invariants of those Calabi-Yau threefolds when…
A threefold isogenous to a product of curves $X$ is a quotient of a product of three compact Riemann surfaces of genus at least two by the free action of a finite group. In this paper we study these threefolds under the assumption that the…
This paper gives sharp linear bounds on the genus of a normal surface in a triangulated compact, orientable 3--manifold in terms of the quadrilaterals in its cell decomposition---different bounds arise from varying hypotheses on the surface…
The aim of this note is to treat one distinguished example of a Calabi--Yau variety that appears as a small resolution of a Picard modular variety
In this article, we investigate some properties of cyclic coverings of complex surfaces of general type branched along smooth curves that are numerically equivalent to a multiple of the canonical class. The main results concern coverings of…
In order to find novel examples of non-simply connected Calabi-Yau threefolds, free quotients of complete intersections in products of projective spaces are classified by means of a computer search. More precisely, all automorphisms of the…
