Euler characteristics of crepant resolutions of Weierstrass models

M Esole, P Jefferson, MJ Kang - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2019 - Springer
Based on an identity of Jacobi, we prove a simple formula that computes the pushforward of
analytic functions of the exceptional divisor of a blowup of a projective variety along a …

Singularities and gauge theory phases II

M Esole, SH Shao, ST Yau - arXiv preprint arXiv:1407.1867, 2014 - arxiv.org
We present a simple algebraic construction of all the small resolutions for the SU (5)
Weierstrass model. Each resolution corresponds to a subchamber on the Coulomb branch …

The Geometry of F-Models

M Esole, P Jefferson, MJ Kang - arXiv preprint arXiv:1704.08251, 2017 - arxiv.org
We study the geometry of elliptic fibrations satisfying the conditions of Step 8 of Tate's
algorithm. We call such geometries F $ _4 $-models, as the dual graph of their special fiber …

M Esole, SH Shao - arXiv preprint arXiv:1504.01387, 2015 - arxiv.org
We consider the 8-supercharge 5d su (N) gauge theories from M-theory compactified on
elliptic Calabi-Yau threefolds. By matching the triple intersection numbers in the elliptic …

Characteristic numbers of crepant resolutions of Weierstrass models

M Esole, MJ Kang - arXiv preprint arXiv:1807.08755, 2018 - arxiv.org
We compute characteristic numbers of crepant resolutions of Weierstrass models
corresponding to elliptically fibered fourfolds $ Y $ dual in F-theory to a gauge theory with …

Intersection Theory on Weighted Blowups of F-theory Vacua

V Arena, P Jefferson, S Obinna - arXiv preprint arXiv:2305.00297, 2023 - arxiv.org
Generalizing the results of 1211.6077 and 1703.00905, we prove a formula for the
pushforward of an arbitrary analytic function of the exceptional divisor class of a weighted …

Stringy Hirzebruch classes of Weierstrass fibrations

J Fullwood, M van Hoeij - arXiv preprint arXiv:1810.10150, 2018 - arxiv.org
A Weierstrass fibration is an elliptic fibration $ Y\to B $ whose total space $ Y $ may be given
by a global Weierstrass equation in a $\mathbb {P}^ 2$-bundle over $ B $. In this note, we …

Two Views on Gravity: F-Theory and Holography

J Kang - 2019 - search.proquest.com
We investigate two different views towards gravitational theories using mathematical
frameworks. First, we study gravitational theories with supersymmetries in various …
