Lecture Series on Geometry - Variations of Hodge structures of Calabi-Yau threefolds
Variations of Hodge structures of Calabi-Yau threefolds are special instance special Kaehler geometry. In this lecture, we review the relation between the two formulations.

Lecture Series on Geometry - Special Kaehler geometry of the moduli space of Calabi-Yau threefolds and BCOV propagators
In this lecture we review special Kaehler geometry of the moduli space of Calabi-Yau threefolds, and introduce the BCOV propagators in the B-model language.

Lecture Series on Geometry - Differential rings arising from special Kahler geometry
This lecture series is a continuation of the colloquium talk. I will discuss properties of certain differential rings constructed from period integrals for a class of one-parameter families of Calabi-Yau threefolds, focusing on the mirror quintic family example.

Hong Kong Geometry Colloquium - Geometric properties of Gromov-Witten generating series and quasi-modular forms
The generating series of Gromov-Witten invariants of a Calabi-Yau manifold are a priori defined as a formal series in the Novikov variable.

Hong Kong Geometry Colloquium - Periods and quasiperiods of modular forms
Weakly hoiomorphic forms play an important role in various areas of mathematics, the prominent example being the j-invariant.
