Abstract: Almost Kähler Hodge numbers vary with metric choices.

Extends Kodaira Spencer to higher-dimensional Calabi-Yau manifolds.

Study finite deformations from heterotic superpotential, leading to new complex effective action.

In this thesis, we study deformations of compact holomorphic Poisson manifolds and algebraic Poisson schemes in the framework of Kodaira-Spencer's analytic deformation theory and Grothendieck's algebraic deformation theory.

The paper develops a deformation theory for Dolbeault cohomology classes.

New theory connects string theory to swampland distance conjecture.

Study on degeneration of spectral sequence in complex manifolds under deformations.

We shall develop a new deformation theory of geometric structures in terms of closed differential forms. This theory is a generalization of Kodaira -Spencer theory and further we obtain a criterion of unobstructed deformations. We apply this theory to certain geometric structures: Calabi-Yau, HyperKähler, $\G$ and $\Sp…

Study on Einstein deformations of negative Kähler Einstein metrics.

Holomorphic supergravity theory simplifies anomaly cancellation in heterotic moduli.

Historically tensor calculus emerged in an attempt to formalize Rie- mann's ideas. We show that tensor calculus can be based also on Lie's idea of a transformation group and this approach leads quite naturally to the concept of deformation of a transformation group and the Kodaira- Spencer map.

The goal of the memoir is to develop a new cohomology theory which encompasses De Rham and Dolbeault cohomology as well as Deligne Beilinson cohomology, in the context of general complex analytic manifolds. The special case of the Iwasawa manifold is investigated as a typical example of what occurs in the non Kähler ca…

We prove several formulas related to Hodge theory and the Kodaira-Spencer-Kuranishi deformation theory of Kähler manifolds. As applications, we present a construction of globally convergent power series of integrable Beltrami differentials on Calabi-Yau manifolds and also a construction of global canonical family of ho…

Survey on SYZ mirror symmetry using Morse theory.

In this paper, we define a concept of a family of compact holomorphic Poisson manifolds on the basis of Kodaira-Spencer's deformation theory and deduce the integrability condition. We prove an analogue of their `Theorem of existence for complex analytic structures' under some analytic assumption, and establish an analo…

This research constructs hypercomplex structures from twistor spaces.

There is a natural sequence of CY manifolds that are double covers of the projective g dimensional spaces ramified over 2g+2 hyperplanes. We observe that some of them are obtained as quotient of the action of the semi-direct product of g-1 copies of cyclic Z/2Z groups with the symmetric g group on the product of g-copi…

Paper solves a metric-independent problem on almost Kähler 4-manifolds.

Study curvature of direct image bundles in deformations of maps.

We characterise, in the setting of the Kodaira-Spencer deformation theory, the twistor spaces of (co-)CR quaternionic manifolds. As an application, we prove that, locally, the leaf space of any nowhere zero quaternionic vector field on a quaternionic manifold is endowed with a natural co-CR quaternionic structure. Also…

The deformation theory of a Dirac structure is controlled by a differential graded Lie algebra which depends on the choice of an auxiliary transversal Dirac structure; if the transversal is not involutive, one obtains an $L_\infty$ algebra instead. We develop a simplified method for describing this $L_\infty$ algebra a…

Let $M= G/Γ$ be a compact nilmanifold endowed with an invariant complex structure. We prove that, on an open set of any connected component of the moduli space ${\cal C} ({\frak g})$ of invariant complex structures on $M$, the Dolbeault cohomology of $M$ is isomorphic to the one of the differential bigraded algebra ass…

This article gives an exposition of the deformation theory for pairs $(X, E)$, where $X$ is a compact complex manifold and $E$ is a holomorphic vector bundle over $X$, adapting an analytic viewpoint à la Kodaira-Spencer. By introducing and exploiting an auxiliary differential operator, we derive the Maurer--Cartan equa…

The Seiberg-Witten family of elliptic curves defines a Jacobian rational elliptic surface $\Z$ over $\mathbb{C}\mathrm{P}^1$. We show that for the $\bar{\partial}$-operator along the fiber the logarithm of the regularized determinant $-1/2 \log \det' (\bar\partial^* \bar\partial)$ satisfies the anomaly equation of the …

In this paper we obtain a stability theorem of generalized Kahler structures with one pure spinor under small deformations of generalized complex structures. (This is analogous to the stability theorem of Kahler manifolds by Kodaira-Spencer.) We apply the stability theorem to a class of compact Kahler manifolds which a…

This paper is a sequel to \cite{Berndtsson}. In that paper we studied the vector bundle associated to the direct image of the relative canonical bundle of a smooth Kähler morphism, twisted with a semipositive line bundle. We proved that the curvature of a such vector bundles is always semipositive (in the sense of Naka…

For a given multicusp $f=c_{(θ_0,..., θ_i)}$ $(1\le i)$, we present a direct sum decomposition theorem of the source space of ${}_i\barωf$, where ${}_i\barωf$ is a higher version of the reduced Kodaira-Spencer-Mather map $\barωf$. As a corollary of our direct sum decomposition theorem, we show that for any $i\in \mathb…

By use of a natural map introduced recently by the first and third authors from the space of pure-type complex differential forms on a complex manifold to the corresponding one on the small differentiable deformation of this manifold, we will give a power series proof for Kodaira-Spencer's local stability theorem of Kä…

In a family of compact, canonically polarized, complex manifolds equipped with Kähler-Einstein metrics the first variation of the lengths of closed geodesics was previously shown in by the authors in [arXiv:0808.3741v2] to be the geodesic integral of the harmonic Kodaira-Spencer form. We compute the second variation. F…

Given an effectively parameterized family $f:X\to S$ of canonically polarized manifolds, the Kähler-Einstein metrics on the fibers induce a hermitian metric on the relative canonical bundle $K_{X/S}$. We use a global elliptic equation to show that this metric is strictly positive everywhere and give estimates. The dire…

Solves generalized Kähler Calabi-Yau problem on compact manifolds.

Given a family $f:\mathcal X \to S$ of canonically polarized manifolds, the unique Kähler-Einstein metrics on the fibers induce a hermitian metric on the relative canonical bundle $\mathcal K_{\mathcal X/S}$. We use a global elliptic equation to show that this metric is strictly positive on $\mathcal X$, unless the fam…

Unified Higgs bundle vacua from M-theory on Spin(7) spaces.

This is the first paper in a series introducing a generalized Fredholm theory in a new class of smooth spaces called polyfolds. The theory will be illustrated in upcoming papers by applications to Floer Theory, Gromov-Witten Theory and Symplectic Field Theory.

Researchers find new $G_2$-conifolds in $M$-theory with potential field theory duals.

We survey three different ways in which K-theory in all its forms enters quantum field theory. In Part 1 we give a general argument which relates topological field theory in codimension two with twisted K-theory, and we illustrate with some finite models. Part 2 is a review of pfaffians of Dirac operators, anomalies, a…

Main mathematical applications of Frobenius manifolds are in the theory of Gromov - Witten invariants, in singularity theory, in differential geometry of the orbit spaces of reflection groups and of their extensions, in the hamiltonian theory of integrable hierarchies. The theory of Frobenius manifolds establishes rema…
