The aim of this project is to investigate the properties of a certain type of surface, called a K3 surface. K3 surfaces are the two-dimensional case of a class of manifold called Calabi-Yau manifolds, whose special properties mean that they appear in many areas of pure mathematics: from a central position in classification problems in algebraic geometry, to the use of 1-dimensional Calabi-Yau manifolds (a.k.a. elliptic curves) in number theory, and the special role played by K3 surfaces and 3-dimensional Calabi-Yau manifolds in mathematical physics and string theory.The proposed project involves the construction and study of degenerations of K3 surfaces. These degenerations involve mathematically deforming K3 surfaces until they break up, or degenerate, into a collection of simpler pieces. The project will study a certain class of degenerations, called Tyurin degenerations, which play a special role in the mathematics of mirror symmetry and yet are currently poorly understood. The aim of the project is to construct new examples of Tyurin degenerations, study their properties, and work towards a broader classification theory for them.

这个项目的目的是研究某种类型的表面，称为K3表面的属性。K3曲面是一类称为卡-丘流形的流形的二维情况，其特殊性质意味着它们出现在纯数学的许多领域：从代数几何中分类问题的中心位置，到一维卡-丘流形的使用（a.k.a.椭圆曲线），以及K3曲面和三维Calabi-Yau流形在数学物理和弦理论中的特殊作用。建议的项目涉及K3曲面的构造和退化研究。这些退化涉及数学变形K3曲面，直到它们分解或退化为更简单的片段的集合。该项目将研究一类退化，称为Tyurin退化，它在镜像对称的数学中起着特殊的作用，但目前还知之甚少。该项目的目的是构建新的Tyurin退化的例子，研究它们的特性，并为它们建立更广泛的分类理论。
