Calabi-Yau varieties

with extreme behavior

A projective variety X is called Calabi-Yau if its canonical divisor is Q-linearly equivalent to zero. The smallest positive integer m with mK_X linearly equivalent to zero is called the index of X. Using ideas from mirror symmetry, we construct Calabi-Yau varieties with index growing doubly exponentially with dimension. We conjecture they are the largest index in each dimension based on evidence in low dimensions. We also give Calabi-Yau varieties with large orbifold Betti numbers or small minimal log discrepancy. Joint work with Louis Esser and Burt Totaro.

      Geometry of moduli spaces of quadratic differentials and applications

      Abstract Moduli spaces of quadratic differentials on Riemann surfaces appear in quite different contexts such as the dynamics of polygonal billiards and spaces of stability conditions. This talk provides an introduction to the geometry of these moduli spaces and compares the state of the art with the knowledge on the classical moduli space of curves.About the Speaker Martin MöllerGoethe-Univers...

      Polar foliations on symmetric spaces

      报告摘要:The notion of polar foliations is a generalization of the concept of polar actions on Riemannian manifolds. In space forms, polar foliations coincide with isoparametric foliations. In general Riemannian manifolds, these two notions are different from each other. This talk will focus on polar foliations in simply connected symmetric spaces with nonnegative curvature. I will describe re...
