We show that the dynamics of automorphisms on all projective complex manifolds X (of dimension 3, or of any dimension but assuming the Good Minimal Model Program or Mori’s Program) are canonically built up from the dynamics on just three types of projective complex manifolds: complex tori, weak Calabi-Yau manifolds and rationally connected manifolds. As a by-product, we confirm the conjecture of Guedj [20] for automorphisms on 3-dimensional projective manifolds, and also determine π1(X).

We present new results concerning the solvability, or lack of thereof, in the Cauchy problem for the $\bar\partial$ operator with initial values assigned on a weakly pseudoconvex hypersurface, and provide illustrative examples.

A Calabi–Yau threefold is called of type K if it admits an ´etale Galois covering by the product of a K3 surface and an elliptic curve. In our previous paper [16], based on Oguiso–Sakurai’s fundamental work [24], we have provided the full classification of Calabi–Yau threefolds of type K and have studied some basic properties thereof. In the present paper, we continue the study, investigating them from the viewpoint of mirror symmetry. It is shown that mirror symmetry relies on duality of certain sublattices in the second cohomology of the K3 surface appearing in the minimal splitting covering. The duality may be thought of as a version of the lattice duality of the anti-symplectic involution on K3 surfaces discovered by Nikulin [23]. Based on the duality, we obtain several results parallel to what is known for Borcea–Voisin threefolds. Along the way, we also investigate the Brauer groups of Calabi–Yau threefolds of type K.

We classify three dimensional isolated weighted homogeneous rational complete intersection singularities, which define many new four dimensional N = 2 superconformal field theories. We also determine the mini-versal deformation of these singularities, and therefore solve the Coulomb branch spectrum and Seiberg-Witten solution.
