Calabi-Yau Metrics for Quotients and Complete Intersections
نویسندگان
چکیده
We extend previous computations of Calabi-Yau metrics on projective hypersurfaces to free quotients, complete intersections, and free quotients of complete intersections. In particular, we construct these metrics on generic quintics, four-generation quotients of the quintic, Schoen CalabiYau complete intersections and the quotient of a Schoen manifold with Z3 × Z3 fundamental group that was previously used to construct a heterotic standard model. Various numerical investigations into the dependence of Donaldson’s algorithm on the integration scheme, as well as on the Kähler and complex structure moduli, are also performed.

In this short note we construct Calabi-Yau threefolds with nonabelian fundamental groups of order 64 as quotients of the small resolutions of certain complete intersections of quadrics in P that were first considered by M. Gross and S. Popescu.

We use a generalization of the Gibbons-Hawking ansatz to study the behavior of certain non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds in the large complex structure limit. This analysis provides an intermediate step toward proving the metric collapse conjecture for toric hypersurfaces and complete intersections.

We use Batyrev-Borisov’s formula for the generating function of stringy Hodge numbers of Calabi-Yau varieties realized as complete intersections in toric varieties in order to get closed form expressions for Hodge numbers of Calabi-Yau threefolds in five-dimensional ambient spaces. These expressions involve counts of lattice points on faces of associated Cayley polytopes. Using the same techniq...
