Calabi-Yau manifolds from pairs of non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds
Abstract
Most of Calabi-Yau manifolds that have been considered by physicists are complete intersection Calabi-Yau manifolds of toric varieties or some quotients of product types. Purpose of this paper is to introduce a different and rather new kind of construction method of Calabi-Yau manifolds by pasting two non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds. We will also in some details explain a curious and mysterious similarity with construction of some G2-manifolds (also called Joyce manifolds), which are base spaces for M-theory.
