On real Calabi-Yau threefolds twisted by a section

Abstract

We study the mod $2$ cohomology of real Calabi-Yau threefolds given by real structures which preserve the torus fibrations constructed by Gross. We extend the results of Castaño-Bernard-Matessi and Arguz-Prince to the case of real structures twisted by a Lagrangian section. In particular we find exact sequences linking the cohomology of the real Calabi-Yau with the cohomology of the complex one. Applying SYZ mirror symmetry, we show that the connecting homomorphism is determined by a ``twisted squaring of divisors'' in the mirror Calabi-Yau, i.e. by $D \mapsto D^2 + DL$ where $D$ is a divisor in the mirror and $L$ is the divisor mirror to the twisting section. We use this to find an example of a connected $(M-2)$-real quintic threefold.

G3-Criteria and Applications

The G3-property of a subvariety was introduced by Hironaka-Matsumura, and plays an important role for deducing connectedness and extension results. Unfortunately, it's a rather elusive notion, which is not always easy to establish. Most of the existing work is concentrated on subvarieties of homogeneous varieties. The first goal of this article is to show that mobility assumptions on the subvariety, considered in works of Badescu, Chow, Debarre, Voisin, yield a certain partial positivity property, slightly stronger than G3, previously introduced by the author. Second, we apply the result to prove that, in numerous situations, the splitting of the normal bundle of a smooth two-codimensional subvariety implies that it is a complete intersection.

Nodal degeneration of chiral algebras I: Global structure and gluing formula

We define a natural extension of a universal factorization algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to families of stable punctured curves, by integrating over all semistable modifications. We prove that the resulting sheaf of factorization homology satisfies a natural gluing formula, by tensoring over a certain derived associative algebra $\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}^0$, generalizing the Verlinde formula for gluing of conformal blocks.
