چکیده
In this note we search the parameter space of Horrocks-Mumford quintic threefolds and locate a Calabi-Yau threefold which is modular, in the sense that the L-function of its middle-dimensional cohomology is associated to a classical modular form of weight 4 and level 55.

A Modular Non-Rigid Calabi-Yau Threefold
We construct an algebraic variety by resolving singularities of a quintic Calabi-Yau threefold. The middle cohomology of the threefold is shown to contain a piece coming from a pair of elliptic surfaces. The resulting quotient is a two-dimensional Galois representation. By using the Lefschetz fixed-point theorem in étale cohomology and counting points on the variety over finite fields, this Gal...
متن کاملM ar 2 00 4 Computing the level of a modular rigid Calabi - Yau threefold Luis
In a previous article (cf. [DM]), the modularity of a large class of rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds was established. To make that result more explicit, we recall (and re-prove) a result of Serre giving a bound for the conductor of “integral” 2-dimensional compatible families of Galois representations and apply this result to give an algorithm that determines the level of a modular rigid Calabi-Yau...
متن کاملSome Siegel threefolds with a Calabi-Yau model
2009 Introduction In the following we describe some examples of Calabi-Yau manifolds that arise as desingularizations of certain Siegel threefolds. Here by a Calabi-Yau mani-fold we understand a smooth complex projective variety which admits a holo-morphic differential form of degree three without zeros and such that the first Betti number is zero. This differential form is unique up to a const...
متن کاملModular Calabi–yau Threefolds of Level Eight
If X̃ is a Calabi–Yau threefold defined over Q, and p is a good prime (i.e., a prime such that the reduction of X̃ mod p is nonsingular) then the map Frob∗p : H i ét(X̃,Ql) −→ H i ét(X̃,Ql) on l–adic cohomology induced by the geometric Frobenius morphism gives rise to l–adic Galois representations ρl,i : Gal(Q/Q) −→ GLbi(Ql). If a Calabi–Yau threefold X̃ is rigid (i.e., h(X̃) = 0 or equivalently b(X̃)...
متن کاملSemistability of Certain Bundles on a Quintic Calabi-Yau Threefold
In a recent paper Douglas and Zhou aim for explicit examples of string theory compactifications that have a different number of generations and can be connected. For this purpose, they provide a list of bundles on a quintic Calabi-Yau threefold. They need to show that (at least some of) these bundles are semistable and leave this as an open question. In this paper we prove the semistability of ...
