Calabi-Yau manifolds are higher dimensional generalizations of elliptic curves and K3 surfaces. They can be defined as the compact complex Kähler manifolds with trivial canonical bundle, and play a central role in mirror symmetry. This tag can also be used for Calabi-Yau algebras and categories. These algebraic notions are inspired by the properties of the derived categories of coherent sheaves on Calabi-Yau manifolds.

A question on the topological change of dualizing a SLAG fibration.

I am not completely sure what is meant by this statement since the topology of the torus fibration certainly changes if the fibration doesn't have a section. If on the other hand we follow your prescr …

Finite fundamental groups of 3-dimensional Calabi-Yau manifolds

This intuition seems to be only loosely right. There are many smooth compact CY threefolds with large fundamental groups. For instance $\mathbb{Z}/3\times \mathbb{Z}/3$, $\mathbb{Z}/8\times \mathbb{Z …
