Abstract: We use the gluing method to give a refined description of the collapsing Calabi-Yau metrics on Calabi-Yau 3-folds admitting a Lefschetz K3 fibration.


Let \(X\) be a compact Calabi-Yau 3-fold with a Lefschetz \(K3\) fibration \(\pi:X\to Y = \mathbb P^1\). Given reference Kähler metrics \(\omega_X\) on \(X \) and \(\omega_Y\) on \(Y\), the aim is to describe the collapsing family of Calabi-Yau metrics \(\tilde{\omega}_t\) representing the Kähler class \([\omega_X+\frac{1}{t} \pi_*\omega_Y]\) where \(0 < t < < 1\). A main result is that, if \(t\to 0\), the family of CY metrics \(\tilde{\omega}_t\) based at the nodal point converges in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense to the metric product \(X_0\times \mathbb C\). Moreover, \(\omega_{\mathbb C^3}\) arises as a blow up limit of the collapsing metrics \(\tilde{\omega}_t\) near the node. Roughly speaking, the metric ansatz is constructed by gluing the model metric \(\omega_{\mathbb C^3}\) to the semi-Ricci-flat metric. The key issue is to understand the harmonic analysis of the Laplace operator for the metric ansatz. The difficulty is the simultaneous presence of several scales with very different characteristic behaviours, an issue inherent in any collapsing problem and made more acute by the presence of singular fibres.
