Generic regularity of intermediate complex structure limits

TL;DR
The paper analyzes collapsing Ricci-flat Kähler metrics on Calabi–Yau manifolds near intermediate complex structure limits ($0<m<n$). It constructs ansatz reference metrics from a non-Archimedean Monge–Ampère framework and proves a trimmed Harnack inequality together with a De Giorgi iteration to obtain $C^0$ convergence of the Ricci-flat metric $\omega_{CY,t}$ to the ansatz $\omega_t$ on the generic region, with $C^\infty$ control after rescaling by $|\log|t||^{1/2}$. This extends the large complex structure results ($m=n$) to the intermediate case by modeling the geometry as a $Z$-fibration over a Calabi–Yau base and unwrapping $T^m$-fibers, handling the two-scale degenerate geometry. The methods open avenues for later construction of special Lagrangian or coisotropic fibrations on the generic region and have potential applicability to collapsing settings of HT-type, where similar two-scale analysis arises.
Abstract
We study certain polarized degenerations of Calabi-Yau manifolds near an intermediate complex structure limit, and improve the potential $C^0$-convergence to a metric convergence result on the generic region for the corresponding collapsing Ricci-flat Kähler metrics.
