Abstract

This article presents a new approach to the unobstructedness result for deformations of Calabi-Yau varieties by introducing the tangent lifting property for a functor on artinian local algebras. The verification that the deformation functor of a Calabi-Yau variety in characteristic 0 fulfills the tangent lifting property uses, just as the verification of the $T^1$-lifting property, the degeneration of the Hodge to de Rham spectral sequence. Our main use of our methods is however to the mixed characteristic case. In that case to be able to verify the conditions needed one needs an extension of the criterion introducing divided powers.

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.
