What is the meaning of $(h^{11},h^{21})\to (h^{11}-240,h^{21}+240)$ in Calabi-Yau threefolds?
By browsing through the Hodge data of known Calabi-Yau threefolds, I stumbled upon an observation that frequently enough a pair of Hodge numbers $(h^{11},h^{21})$ comes together with the pair $ (h^{...

Positivity properties of virtual Hodge numbers of Calabi-Yaus
Let $X$ be a normal, projective complex variety with an anticanonical divisor $D$. Do the virtual Hodge numbers of the noncompact Calabi-Yau variety $X$ \ $D$ enjoy some sort of positivity property?

Analytical point of view of Kawamata's Unipotent reduction condition for Calabi-Yau family
Motivation: Unipotent reduction condition is very important for study of family of algebraic varieties. For example for algebraic fiber space if we have such condition then the direct image of ...

Hodge coniveaux of Calabi-Yau manifolds
Let $X$ be a strict compact Calabi-Yau manifold of dimension $n$. By this, I mean that $X$ is a simply connected projective manifold whose holomorphic forms are generated by a nowhere zero top degree ...

Minimal Betti numbers of simply-connected threefolds with trivial canonical class
By a threefold, I mean a compact complex manifold of dimension three.
For a simply-connected threefold with trivial canonical class, its Betti numbers satisfy:
$$b_2 \ge 0, b_3 \ge 2.$$
I am wondering ...
