We construct S-linear semiorthogonal decompositions of derived categories of smooth Fano threefold fibrations X/S with relative Picard rank 1 and rational geometric fibers and discuss how the structure of components of these decompositions is related to rationality properties of X/S.

In this article, we introduce and study singular foliations of b^k-type. These singular foliations formalize the properties of vector fields that are tangent to order k along a submanifold W subset M. Our first result is a classification of these foliations, relating them to geometric structures defined in a formal neighborhood of the submanifold, such as jets of distributions that are involutive up to order k-1. When W is a hypersurface, singular foliations of b^k-type are Lie algebroids. In this particular case, they are generalizations of the b^k-tangent bundles introduced by Scott. Indeed, they are always locally isomorphic to b^k-tangent bundles, but globally such an isomorphism is obstructed by a holonomy invariant. Our second main result is a Riemann-Hilbert-style classification of singular foliations of b^k-type in terms of holonomy representations. In this paper, we study singular foliations of b^k-type from several different perspectives. In particular: (1) We study the problem of extending a k-th-order foliation to a (k+1)-th order foliation and prove that this is obstructed by a characteristic class. (2) When W is a hypersurface, we give a detailed study of algebroid differential forms and extend Scott's calculation of the cohomology. (3) We study algebroid symplectic forms in terms of the geometric structures induced on W. In particular, we find that there is a close relationship between the above obstruction class for extensions and the symplectic variation of the symplectic foliation induced on W.

A homogeneous roof is a rational homogeneous variety of Picard rank 2 and index r equipped with two different mathbb P^{r-1}-bundle structures. We consider bundles of homogeneous roofs over a smooth projective variety, formulating a relative version of the duality of Calabi--Yau pairs associated to roofs of projective bundles. We discuss how derived equivalence of such pairs can lift to Calabi--Yau fibrations, extending a result of Bridgeland and Maciocia to higher-dimensional cases. We formulate an approach to prove that the DK-conjecture holds for a class of simple K-equivalent maps arising from bundles of roofs. As an example, we propose a pair of eight-dimensional Calabi--Yau varieties fibered in dual Calabi--Yau threefolds, related by a GLSM phase transition, and we prove derived equivalence with the methods above.

We propose a general theory of the Open Gromov-Witten invariant on Calabi-Yau three-folds. We introduce the moduli space of multi-curves and show how it leads to invariants. Our construction is based on an idea of Witten. In the special case that each connected component of the Lagrangian submanifold has the rational homology of a sphere we define rational numbers F_{g,h} for each genus g and h boundary components.
