Abstract

The second Chern class $c_2$ plays a special role in studying Calabi-Yau threefolds. Among other things, we discuss about KSC (Kawaguchi-Silverman's Conjecture) and the finiteness problem of real forms of Calabi-Yau threefolds with $c_2$-contractions. Though nothing appears in the title and main statements, our arguments use dynamical degrees due to Dinh-Sibony and current work on slow dynamics due to Dinh-Lin-O-Zhang in essential ways.


Speaker

I am a Professor at University of Tokyo. I am studying Calabi-Yau manifolds in wider sense, mostly K3 surfaces,Calabi-Yau manifolds in the strict sense and compact hyperkaeher manifolds. Currently, I am mainy studying the existence problem of primitive automorphisms, the Kawamata-Morrison cone conjecture, and the(non-)liftability problem of automorphisms of K3 surfaces from positive characteristic to characteristic zero, from both birational geometrical view and complex dynamical view.

      On attractor points on the moduli space of Calabi-Yau threefolds

      AbstractWe briefly review the origin in physics of attractor points on the moduli space of Calabi-Yau threefolds. We turn to their mathematical interpretation as special cases of Hodge loci. This leads to fascinating conjectures on the modularity of the Calabi-Yau threefolds at these points in terms of their periods and L-functions. For hypergeometric one-parameter families of Calabi-Yau threef...
