Let $X$ be a compact Calabi-Yau 3-fold, and write $mathcal M,bar{mathcal M}$ for the moduli stacks of objects in coh$(X),D^b$coh$(X)$. There are natural line bundles $K_{mathcal M}tomathcal M$, $K_{bar{mathcal M}}tobar{mathcal M}$, analogues of canonical bundles. Orientation data on $mathcal M,bar{mathcal M}$ is an isomorphism class of square root line bundles $K_{mathcal M}^{1/2},K_{bar{mathcal M}}^{1/2}$, satisfying a compatibility condition on the stack of short exact sequences. It was introduced by Kontsevich and Soibelman arXiv:1006.270 in their theory of motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants, and is important in categorifying Donaldson-Thomas theory using perverse sheaves. We show that natural orientation data can be constructed for all compact Calabi-Yau 3-folds, and also for compactly-supported coherent sheaves and perfect complexes on noncompact Calabi-Yau 3-folds $X$ with a spin smooth projective compactification $Xhookrightarrow Y$. This proves a long-standing conjecture in Donaldson-Thomas theory. These are special cases of a more general result. Let $X$ be a spin smooth projective 3-fold. Using the spin structure we construct line bundles $K_{mathcal M}tomathcal M$, $K_{bar{mathcal M}}tobar{mathcal M}$. We define spin structures on $mathcal M,bar{mathcal M}$ to be isomorphism classes of square roots $K_{mathcal M}^{1/2},K_{bar{mathcal M}}^{1/2}$. We prove that natural spin structures exist on $mathcal M,bar{mathcal M}$. They are equivalent to orientation data when $X$ is a Calabi-Yau 3-fold with the trivial spin structure. We prove this using our previous paper arXiv:1908.03524, which constructs spin structures (square roots of a certain complex line bundle $K_Ptomathcal B_P$) on differential-geometric moduli stacks $mathcal B_P$ of connections on a principal U$(m)$-bundle $Pto X$ over a compact spin 6-manifold $X$.
Borisov-Joyce constructed a real virtual cycle on compact moduli spaces of stable sheaves on Calabi-Yau 4-folds, using derived differential geometry. We construct an algebraic virtual cycle. A key step is a localisation of Edidin-Grahams square roo
We prove that rationally connected Calabi--Yau 3-folds with kawamata log terminal (klt) singularities form a birationally bounded family, or more generally, rationally connected $3$-folds of $epsilon$-CY type form a birationally bounded family for $e
Motivated by S-duality modularity conjectures in string theory, we define new invariants counting a restricted class of 2-dimensional torsion sheaves, enumerating pairs $Zsubset H$ in a Calabi-Yau threefold X. Here H is a member of a sufficiently pos
Let X be an n-dimensional Calabi-Yau with ordinary double points, where n is odd. Friedman showed that for n=3 the existence of a smoothing of X implies a specific type of relation between homology classes on a resolution of X. (The converse is also
Gromov-Witten theory is used to define an enumerative geometry of curves in Calabi-Yau 5-folds. We find recursions for meeting numbers of genus 0 curves, and we determine the contributions of moving multiple covers of genus 0 curves to the genus 1 Gr
