Nov 24, 2020 at 9:31 comment added Urs Schreiber @Emily thanks for the pointer. Have added it to the nLab here ncatlab.org/nlab/show/K3-spectrum#Nogami10 with discussion here: nforum.ncatlab.org/discussion/5946/k3spectrum/…
Nov 24, 2020 at 4:21 comment added Emily @UrsSchreiber Do you know about this thesis? It seems relevant (though surprisingly hard to come across!).
May 19, 2014 at 15:21 comment added Urs Schreiber (Szymik 10) ($\leftarrow$ mouseover) points in his reference item [19] to a "report" by Jack Morava on Mike Hopkins’ work on Calabi-Yau cohomology, which apparently, as I mentioned above, was presented in 1992 at the Midwest topology Seminar. But I haven't seen this report. The earliest mentioning that I have seen in print (so far) is (Sati 05), where the terminology is proposed on the last page.
May 19, 2014 at 14:27 comment added bananastack can I ask where the term "calabi-yau cohomology" was first coined?
May 18, 2014 at 19:38 comment added Urs Schreiber @CharlesRezk, true, I should have mentioned this. For completeness I have now added a brief remark on that to the relevant nLab entry: ncatlab.org/nlab/show/… (just as Matt says, of course).
May 18, 2014 at 1:45 comment added Matt To guarantee that $\Phi^n$ be prorepresentable by a formal group, it suffices to have $\Phi^{n-1}$ be formally smooth. The condition that $H^{n-1}(X, \mathcal{O}_X)=0$ is an overly strong way to guarantee that. Then yes, $\dim H^n(X, \mathcal{O}_X)$ gives the dimension of the formal group $\Phi^n$, so for a Calabi-Yau it is one-dimensional.
May 18, 2014 at 1:37 comment added Charles Rezk A naive question: I chased your link to the nforum page on Artin-Mazur fg. Looking at it, I don't see what is special about Calabi-Yau varieties, over arbitrary ones of dim n. I'm guessing the CY condition is what's need to make the AMfg one dimensional, yes?
