We prove that the 4-dimensional Galois representations associated with a certain Calabi-Yau threefold are reducible, with 2-dimensional composition factors coming from specific modular forms of weights 2 and 4, both level 14. This was…
We exhibit three double octic Calabi--Yau threefolds over the certain quadratic fields and prove their modularity. The non-rigid threefold has two conjugate Hilbert modular forms of weight [4,2] and [2,4] attached while the two rigid…
We study the limit of Calabi-Yau modular forms, and in particular, those resulting in classical modular forms. We then study two parameter families of elliptically fibred Calabi-Yau fourfolds and describe the modular forms arising from the…
In the paper [FSM] we described some Siegel modular threefolds which admit a Calabi-Yau model. Using a different method we give in this paper an enlarged list of such varieties that admits a Calabi-Yau model in the following weak sense:…
In this note we consider M-theory compactified on a warped Calabi-Yau fourfold including the eight-derivative terms in the eleven-dimensional action known in the literature. We dimensionally reduce this theory on geometries with one Kahler…
We consider rigid Calabi--Yau threefolds defined over $\QQ$ and the question of whether they admit quadratic twists. We give a precise geometric definition of the notion of a quadratic twists in this setting. Every rigid Calabi--Yau…
In this survey paper we present recent results obtained by Khare, Wintenberger and the author that have led to a proof of Serre's conjecture, such as existence of compatible families, modular upper bounds for universal deformation rings and…
In this paper, we introduce new enumerative invariants of curves on Calabi-Yau 3-folds via certain stable objects in the derived category of coherent sheaves. We introduce the notion of limit stability on the category of perverse coherent…
In this paper, we show that an odd Galois representation rhobar: Gal(Qbar/Q) --> GL_2(F_9) satisfying certain local conditions at 3 and 5 is modular. Our main tool is an idea of Taylor, which reduces the problem to that of exhibiting points…
This is the author's PhD thesis. Two main sections address various aspects of mirror symmetry for compact Calabi-Yau threefolds and the roles that classically modular varieties play in string theory compactifications. The main results…
This paper presents five new examples of modular rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds arising from the modular elliptic surface of level 6. Explicit correspondences to newforms of weight 4 and level 10, 17, 21, and 73 are given.
We investigate the moduli theory of Calabi--Yau threefolds, and using Griffiths' work on the period map, we derive some finiteness results. In particular, we confirm a prediction of Morrison's Cone Conjecture.
In this note we describe a method to calculate the action of a particular Fourier-Mukai transformation on a basis of brane charges on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds with and without a section. The Fourier-Mukai kernel is the…
Modular invariance is known to constrain the spectrum of 2d conformal field theories. We investigate this constraint systematically, using the linear functional method to put new improved upper bounds on the lowest gap in the spectrum. We…
This paper continues the authors' program of studying mirror symmetry via log geometry and toric degenerations, relating affine manifolds with singularities, log Calabi-Yau spaces, and toric degenerations of Calabi-Yaus. The main focus of…
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…
We revisit moduli stabilization on Calabi-Yau manifolds with a discrete symmetry. Invariant fluxes allow for a truncation to a symmetric locus in complex structure moduli space and hence drastically reduce the moduli stabilization problem…
We use Serre construction and deformation to construct stable bundles and reflexive sheaves on Calabi-Yau threefolds.
By the modularity theorem every rigid Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ has associated modular form $f$ such that the equality of $L$-functions $L(X,s)=L(f,s)$ holds. In this case period integrals of $X$ are expected to be expressible in terms of…
Assuming the standard framework of mirror symmetry, a conjecture is formulated describing how the diffeomorphism group of a Calabi-Yau manifold Y should act by families of Fourier-Mukai transforms over the complex moduli space of the mirror…
