Derived varieties were invented by P. Cohn in [4]. Derived varieties of a given type were invented by the authors in [10]. In the paper we deal with the derived variety Vσ of a given variety, by a fixed hypersubstitution σ. We introduce the notion of the dimension of a variety as the cardinality κ of the set of all proper derived varieties of V included in V. We examine dimensions of some varie...

Let Σ be a smooth projective complex curve and g a simple Lie algebra of type ADE with associated adjoint group G. For a fixed pair (Σ, g), we construct a family of quasiprojective Calabi-Yau threefolds parameterized by the base of the Hitchin integrable system associated to (Σ, g). Our main result establishes an isomorphism between the Calabi-Yau integrable system, whose fibers are the interme...
