In this paper, we investigate the space of certain weak stability conditions on the triangulated category of D0-D2-D6 bound states on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 3-fold. In the case of a quintic 3-fold, the resulting space is interpreted as a universal covering space of an infinitesimal neighborhood of the conifold point in the stringy K¨ahler moduli space. We then associate the DT type invariants counting semistable objects, which give new curve counting invariants on Calabi-Yau 3-folds. We also investigate the wall-crossing formula of our invariants and their interplay with the Seidel-Thomas twist.

We study the dynamics of polynomial automorphisms of$C$^{$k$}. To an algebraically stable automorphism we associate positive closed currents which are invariant under$f$, considering$f$as a rational map on$P$^{$k$}. These currents give information on the dynamics and allow us to construct a canonical invariant measure which is shown to be mixing.

In this paper, we present a staggered discontinuous Galerkin immersed boundary method (SDGIBM) for the numerical approximation of fluid-structure interaction. The immersed boundary method is used to model the fluid-structure interaction, while the fluid flow is governed by incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. One advantage of using Galerkin method over the finite difference method with immersed boundary method is that we can avoid approximations of the Dirac Delta function. Another key ingredient of our method is that our solver for incompressible Navier-Stokes equations combines the advantages of discontinuous Galerkin methods and staggered meshes, and results in many good properties, namely local and global conservations and pointwise divergence-free velocity field by a local postprocessing technique. Furthermore, energy stability is improved by a skew-symmetric discretization of the convection term. We will present numerical results to show the performance of the method.
