Science
- Calabi conjecture, conjecture about the existence of certain "nice" Riemannian metrics on certain complex manifolds, made by Eugenio Calabi

- Calabi–Yau manifold, also Calabi–Yau space, special type of manifold that is described in certain branches of mathematics such as algebraic geometry
- Calabi–Eckmann manifold or often, Calabi–Eckmann space, named after Eugenio Calabi and Beno Eckmann, complex, homogeneous, non-Kähler manifold, homeomorphic to a product of two odd-dimensional spheres of dimension ≥ 3.
- Calabi–Yau algebra, introduced by Victor Ginzburg to transport the geometry of a Calabi–Yau manifold to noncommutative algebraic geometry
