A log Calabi–Yau pair consists of a proper variety X and a divisor D on it such that $$K_X+D$$KX+D is numerically trivial. A folklore conjecture predicts that the dual complex of D is homeomorphic to the quotient of a sphere by a finite group. The main result of the paper shows that the fundamental group of the dual complex of D is a quotient of the fundamental group of the smooth locus of X, hence its pro-finite completion is finite. This leads to a positive answer in dimension $$\le$$≤4. We… Expand
The dual complex of log Calabi–Yau pairs on Mori fibre spaces
In this paper we show that the dual complex of a dlt log Calabi-Yau pair $(Y, \Delta)$ on a Mori fibre space $\pi: Y \to Z$ is a finite quotient of a sphere, provided that either the Picard number ofExpand

We associate a ring R to a log Calabi-Yau pair (X,D) or a degeneration of Calabi-Yau manifolds X->B. The vector space underlying R is determined by the tropicalization of (X,D) or X->B, while theExpand
