These are introductory lecture notes on complex geometry, Calabi-Yau manifolds and toric geometry. We first define basic concepts of complex and Kahler geometry. We then proceed with an analysis of various definitions of Calabi-Yau manifolds. The last section provides a short introduction to toric geometry, aimed at constructing Calabi-Yau manifolds in two different ways; as hypersurfaces in toric varieties and as local toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. These lecture notes supplement a mini-course that was given by the author at the Modave Summer School in Mathematical Physics 2005, and at CERN in 2007.

  1. Cohomological lifting of multi-toric graphs

    math.DG 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Compact edges of a G2 multi-moment graph lift from the base via cohomological formulas, and in the toric case the loop closes exactly when the cohomological condition [ω]∪[F]=0 holds.

  2. Symbolic Approximations to Ricci-flat Metrics Via Extrinsic Symmetries of Calabi-Yau Hypersurfaces

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper proposes that Calabi-Yau flat metrics inherit extra symmetries from the surrounding space, and uses this to build compact symbolic approximations and exact expressions on special loci.

  3. Lectures on Naturalness, String Landscape and Multiverse

    hep-th 2020-08 unverdicted novelty 1.0 of 10

    Lecture notes providing a technical introduction to naturalness problems and the string theory landscape for graduate students.
