In this paper, I prove a very general extension theorem for log pluricanonical systems. The main application of this extension theorem is (together with Kawamata's subadjunction theorem) to give an optimal subadjunction theorem which…
In this paper, we prove that klt singularities are invariant under deformations if the generic fiber is $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein. We also obtain a similar result for slc singularities. These are generalizations of results of Esnault-Viehweg…
This article gives a short proof that all ideal polygons admit a short orthogeodesic decomposition. Specifically, all $n$-gons admit an orthogeodesic decomposition with orthogeodesics all of length at most $\sim 2 \log(n)$, and this is…
