We compute global log canonical thresholds, or equivalently alpha invariants, of birationally rigid orbifold Fano threefolds embedded in weighted projective spaces as codimension two or three. As an important application, we prove that most…
We introduce a notion of uniform Ding stability for a projective manifold with big anticanonical class, and prove that the existence of a unique K\"ahler-Einstein metric on such a manifold implies uniform Ding stability. The main new…
Assume that a projective variety together with a polarization is uniformly K-stable. If the polarization is canonical or anti-canonical, then the projective variety is uniformly K-stable with respects to any polarization sufficiently close…
We define K-stability of a polarized Sasakian manifold relative to a maximal torus of automorphisms. The existence of a Sasaki-extremal metric in the polarization is shown to imply that the polarization is K-semistable. Computing this…
We explore connections between existence of $\Bbbk$-rational points for Fano varieties defined over $\Bbbk$, a subfield of $\mathbb{C}$, and existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on their geometric models. First, we show that geometric…
Certain curvature conditions for stability of Einstein manifolds with respect to the Einstein-Hilbert action are given. These conditions are given in terms of quantities involving the Weyl tensor and the Bochner tensor. In dimension six, a…
In this paper, we discuss the relative $K$-stability and the modified $K$-energy associated to the Calabi's extremal metric on toric manifolds. We give a sufficient condition in the sense of convex polytopes associated to toric manifolds…
We embed polarised orbifolds with cyclic stabiliser groups into weighted projective space via a weighted form of Kodaira embedding. Dividing by the (non-reductive) automorphisms of weighted projective space then formally gives a moduli…
The Hitchin-Kobayashi correspondence for vector bundles, established by Donaldson, Kobayashi, Luebke, Uhlenbeck and Yau, states that an indecomposable holomorphic vector bundle over a compact Kaehler manifold is stable in the sense of…
We give some non-existence results for K\"ahler-Einstein metrics with conical singularities along a divisor on Fano manifolds. In particular we show that the maximal possible cone angle is in general smaller than the invariant R(M). We…
We analyze the stability of the Einstein static universe by considering homogeneous perturbations in the context of f(G) modified Gauss-Bonnet theories of gravity. By considering a generic form of f(G), the stability region of the Einstein…
We prove the existence of Kahler-Einstein metrics on Q-Gorenstein smoothable, K-polystable Q-Fano varieties, and we show how these metrics behave, in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense, under Q-Gorenstein smoothings.
We formulate a notion of stability for maps between polarised varieties which generalises Kontsevich's definition when the domain is a curve and Tian-Donaldson's definition of K-stability when the target is a point. We give some examples,…
Recently, Sun-Zhang have developed an algebraic theory for K\"ahler-Ricci shrinkers showing that they admit the structure of a polarized Fano fibration $(\pi: X \to Y, \xi)$. In particular, they conjecture that existence of a K\"ahler-Ricci…
In this paper, we study the K-stability of polarized spherical varieties. After reduction, it can be treated as a variational problem of the reduced functional of the Futaki invariant on the associated moment polytope. With the convexity…
This is an expository article. Among other topics, we discuss the existence of Kahler-Ricci soliton metrics on toric Fano manifolds, and Kahler-Einstein metrics on deformations of the Mukai-Umemura 3-fold
We prove some criteria for uniform K-stability of log Fano pairs. In particular, we show that uniform K-stability is equivalent to $\beta$-invariant having a positive lower bound. Then we study the relation between optimal destabilization…
We prove the finite step termination of bubble trees for singularity formation of polarized K\"ahler-Einstein metrics in the non-collapsing situation. We also raise several questions and conjectures in connection with algebraic geometry and…
In this paper, improving a preceding work, we obtain asymptotic polybalanced kernels associated to extremal Kaehler metrics on polarized algebraic manifolds. As a corollary, we have a stronger asymptotic relative Chow-polystability for…
We apply a recent theorem of Li and the first author to give some criteria for the K-stability of Fano varieties in terms of anticanonical Q-divisors. First, we propose a condition in terms of certain anticanonical Q-divisors of given Fano…
