Calabi-Yau Threefold Singularities and their Universal Quilts
We introduce the notion of universal quilt for toric CY3 singularities and construct examples when the universal quilts are themselves smooth Calabi-Yau threefolds. Such quilts are designed to contain all of the crepant resolutions of the given singularity. To obtain universal quilts we implement an algorithm that computes all triangulations for any given planar polygon. We also introduce the notion of quilt stack, to address the question of finding the most likely smooth configuration preceding a given singularity.
