Equations of mirrors to log Calabi--Yau pairs via the heart of canonical wall structures

Abstract

Gross and Siebert developed a program for constructing in arbitrary dimension a mirror family to a log Calabi--Yau pair $(X,D)$, consisting of a smooth projective variety $X$ with a normal-crossing anti-canonical divisor $D$ in $X$. In this paper, we provide an algorithm to practically compute explicit equations of the mirror family in the case when $X$ is obtained as a blow-up of a toric variety along hypersurfaces in its toric boundary, and $D$ is the strict transform of the toric boundary. The main ingredient is ``the heart of the canonical wall structure'' associated to such pairs $(X,D)$, which is constructed purely combinatorially, following our previous work with Mark Gross. In the case when we blow up a single hypersurface we show that our results agree with previous results computed symplectically by Aroux--Abouzaid--Katzarkov. In the situation when the locus of blow-up is formed by more than a single hypersurface, due to infinitely many walls interacting, writing the equations becomes significantly more challenging. We provide the first examples of explicit equations for mirror families in such situations.

Perverse Euler Characteristics of Hermitian Locally Symmetric Spaces

We prove that finite-volume locally Hermitian symmetric spaces of noncompact type have nonnegative perverse Euler characteristics. To show this, we obtain a nefness result for the logarithmic cotangent bundle of a smooth toroidal compactification. Combining this with a positivity criterion for Euler characteristics of perverse sheaves, we deduce the nonnegativity result. We further prove that the inequality is strict for perverse sheaves with full support. As applications, we get nonnegativity results for perverse Euler characteristics on various moduli spaces.

Coupled Pklt Tuples and Varieties of Pklt Type

We introduce asymptotic multiplier ideal sheaves and log canonical thresholds associated with tuples of pseudoeffective divisors on a projective klt pair. We prove that the threshold of a coupled potentially klt tuple is computed by a quasi-monomial valuation. For varieties of potentially klt type, we prove that every big divisor admits a birational Zariski decomposition with semiample positive part. We also prove finite generation of multisection rings of big divisors and give a criterion for a variety of potentially klt type to be a Mori dream space.

Graded Betti numbers of general curves of large degree

Let $C$ be a smooth projective complex curve of genus $g$ and gonality $k$, and $L$ be a very ample line bundle on $C$. When $L$ has sufficiently large degree, the vanishing and nonvanishing of the Koszul cohomology groups $K_{p,q}(C,L)$ have been determined previously, but the exact values of the graded Betti numbers $\kappa_{p,q}(C, L)$ remain largely unknown. In this paper, we give explicit closed formulas for all graded Betti numbers $\kappa_{p,q}(C, L)$ when the Brill--Noether locus $W_k^1(C)$ has the expected dimension and $H^1(C, L \otimes \omega_C^{-1})=0$. Consequently, we determine the complete Betti table for a general curve when $\deg L \geq 4g-3$ or when $\deg L \geq 3g-3$ and $L$ is general. We also explicitly compute the Boij--S\"{o}derberg coefficient of the section ring $R(C, L)$ governing asymptotic purity, and show eventual monotonicity of the remaining coefficients: they decrease for hyperelliptic curves and increase under a natural generic reducedness assumption on the relevant Brill--Noether loci.
