Klt degenerations of projective spaces

Algebraic Geometry 2024-07-19 v2

Abstract

We study degenerations of complex projective spaces Pn\mathbb P^n into normal projective klt varieties XX. If the tangent sheaf of XX is semi-stable, we show that XX itself is a projective space. If XX is a threefold with canonical singularities, we show that there are only three varieties which satisfy all the conditions.
