In this paper, we provide new necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Kähler–Einstein metrics on small deformations of a Fano Kähler–Einstein manifold. We also show that the Weil–Petersson metric can be approximated by the Ricci curvatures of the canonical L^2 metrics on the direct image bundles. In addition, we describe the plurisubharmonicity of the energy functional of harmonic maps on the Kuranishi space of the deformation of compact Kähler–Einstein manifolds of general type.

We introduce block maps for subfactors and study their dynamic systems. We prove that the limit points of the dynamic system are positive multiples of biprojections and zero. For the \mathbb{Z}_2 case, the asymptotic phenomenon of the block map coincides with that of the 2D Ising model.The study of block maps requires a further development of our recent work on the Fourier analysis of subfactors.We generalize the notion of sum set estimates in additive combinatorics for subfactors and prove the exact inverse sum set theorem. Using this new method, we characterize the extremal pairs of Young's inequality for subfactors, as well as the extremal operators of the Hausdorff-Young inequality.

We supply a detailed proof of the result by P.S. Green and T. H$\ddot{\text{u}}$bsch that all complete intersection Calabi--Yau 3-folds in product of projective spaces are connected through projective conifold transitions (known as the standard web). We also introduce a subclass of small transitions which we call \emph{primitive} small transitions and study such subclass. More precisely, given a small projective resolution $\pi : \widehat{X} \rightarrow X$ of a Calabi--Yau 3-fold $X$, we show that if the natural closed immersion $\Def(\widehat{X}) \hookrightarrow \Def(X)$ is an isomorphism then $X$ has only ODPs as singularities.

We consider in this work stochastic differential equation (SDE) model for particles in contact with a heat bath when the memory effects are non-negligible. As a result of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, the differential equations driven by fractional Brownian noise to model memory effects should be paired with Caputo derivatives and based on this we consider fractional stochastic differential equations (FSDEs), which should be understood in an integral form. We establish the existence of strong solutions for such equations. In the linear forcing regime, we compute the solutions explicitly and analyze the asymptotic behavior, through which we verify that satisfying fluctuation-dissipation indeed leads to the correct physical behavior. We further discuss possible extensions to nonlinear forcing regime, while leave the rigorous analysis for future works.
