Title：

Non-Kahler Degenerations of Calabi-Yau Threefolds

Abstract：

It was proposed in the works of Clemens, Reid, Friedman to connect Calabi-Yau threefolds with different topologies by a process which degenerates 2-cycles and introduces new 3-cycles. This operation may produce a non-Kahler complex manifold with trivial canonical bundle. In this talk, we will discuss the geometrization of this process by special non-Kahler metrics. This talk will survey joint works with T.C. Collins, B. Friedman, C. Suan, and S.-T. Yau.

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...

Locally stable degenerations of log Calabi-Yau pairs
Abstract We study the birational boundedness of special fibers of log Calabi-Yau fibrations and Fano fibrations. We show that for a locally stable family of Fano varieties or polarised log Calabi-Yau pairs over a curve, if the general fiber satisfies some natural boundedness conditions, then every irreducible component of the special fiber is birationally bounded.About the speaker 焦骏鹏，清华...
