On the construction of asymptotically conical Calabi-Yau manifolds

This thesis is concerned with the construction of asymptotically conical (AC) Calabi-Yau manifolds. We provide an alternative proof of a result by Goto that states that the basic (p, 0)-Hodge numbers of a positive Sasaki manifold vanish for p > 0. Our main theorem then gives sufficient conditions...
