In this paper, we prove the Kobayashi hyperbolicity of the coarse moduli spaces of canonically polarized or polarized Calabi-Yau manifolds in the sense of complex $V$-spaces (a generalization of complex $V$-manifolds in the sense of…
In this work we construct an analytically completely integrable Hamiltonian system which is canonically associated to any family of Calabi-Yau threefolds. The base of this system is a moduli space of gauged Calabi-Yaus in the family, and…
In this paper, we study the analogue of the Shafarevich conjecture for polarized Calabi-Yau varieties. We use variations of Hodge structures and Higgs bundles to establish a criterion for the {\it rigidity} of families. We then apply the…
F-theory compactifications on elliptic Calabi-Yau manifolds may be related to IIb compactifications by taking a certain limit in complex structure moduli space, introduced by A. Sen. The limit has been characterized on the basis of SL(2,Z)…
In the context of string dualities, fibration structures of Calabi-Yau manifolds play a prominent role. In particular, elliptic and K3 fibered Calabi-Yau fourfolds are important for dualities between string compactifications with four flat…
We study threefolds fibred by K3 surfaces admitting a lattice polarization by a certain class of rank 19 lattices. We begin by showing that any family of such K3 surfaces is completely determined by a map from the base of the family to the…
We prove a generic Torelli theorem for a class of three-dimensional log Calabi--Yau pairs $(Y, D)$ with maximal boundary.
This paper first generalises the Bogomolov-Tian-Todorov unobstructedness theorem to the case of Calabi-Yau threefolds with canonical singularities. The deformation space of such a Calabi-Yau threefold is no longer smooth, but the general…
We construct a family of Calabi-Yau metrics on $\C^3$ with properties analogous to the Taub-NUT metric on $\C^2$, and construct a family of Calabi-Yau 3-fold metric models on the positive and negative vertices of SYZ fibrations with…
We find a simple geometric construction of Tonoli's examples of Calabi--Yau threefolds of degree 17 in complex $\mathbb{P}^6$. We prove that the rank of the Picard group of elements of one of these families is at least $2$.
We realize higher-form symmetries in F-theory compactifications on non-compact elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau manifolds. Central to this endeavour is the topology of the boundary of the non-compact elliptic fibration, as well as the…
We study Calabi-Yau manifolds constructed as double covers of ${\mathbb P}^3$ branched along an octic surface. We give a list of 85 examples corresponding to arrangements of eight planes defined over ${\mathbb Q}$. The Hodge numbers are…
We propose a way to examine N=1 and N=2 string dualities on Calabi-Yau three-folds or extensions. Our way is to find out or to construct two types of toric representations of a Calabi-Yau three-fold, which contain phases topologically…
Given a polarized family of varieties over the unit disc, smooth except over the origin and with smooth fibers Calabi-Yau, we show that the origin lies at finite Weil-Petersson distance if and only if after a finite base change the family…
In this paper, a family of smooth multiply connected Calabi--Yau threefolds is investigated. The family presents a counterexample to global Torelli as conjectured by Aspinwall and Morrison.
We verify the Morrison--Kawamata conjecture for a certain class of rational threefolds, namely blowups of P^3 in the base locus of a net of quadrics with no reducible members. This seems to be the first verified case of the conjecture for…
The goal of this paper is to describe certain nonlinear topological obstructions for the existence of first order smoothings of mildly singular Calabi-Yau varieties of dimension at least $4$. For nodal Calabi-Yau threefolds, a necessary and…
We discuss some aspects of F-theory in four dimensions on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau fourfolds which are Calabi-Yau threefold fibrations. A particularly simple class of such manifolds emerges for fourfolds in which the generic…
We extend the notion of lattice polarization for K3 surfaces to families over a (not necessarily simply connected) base, in a way that gives control over the action of monodromy on the algebraic cycles, and discuss the uses of this new…
We conduct a systematic search of codimension 2 Complete Intersection Calabi--Yau threefolds (CICY3) in rank 2 toric ambient spaces and fibered by complete intersection of a quadric and a cubic in $\C\P^4$. We classify both the nonsingular…
