The notion of asymptotically log Fano varieties was given by Cheltsov and Rubinstein. We show that, if an asymptotically log Fano variety $(X, D)$ satisfies that $D$ is irreducible and $-K_X-D$ is big, then $X$ does not admit…
The notion of (strongly) asymptotically log Fano varieties was introduced in 2013 by Cheltsov--Rubinstein, who posed the problem of classifying all strongly asymptotically log del Pezzo surfaces with smooth boundary that admit…
We study global log canonical thresholds on anticanonically embedded quasismooth weighted Fano threefold hypersurfaces having terminal quotient singularities to prove the existence of a Kahler-Einstein metric on most of them, and to produce…
In dimension two, we reduce the classification problem for asymptotically log Fano pairs to the problem of determining generality conditions on certain blow-ups. In any dimension, we prove the rationality of the body of ample angles of an…
The global log canonical threshold (or Tian's alpha-invariant) plays an important role in the geometry of Fano varieties. Tian showed that Fano manifolds with big alpha-invariant can be equipped with a Kahler-Einstein metric. In recent…
Motivated by the problem for the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein edge metrics, Cheltsov and Rubinstein conjectured the K-polystability of asymptotically log Fano varieties with small cone angles when the anti-log-canonical divisors are not…
There are several variations of the definition of log del Pezzo pairs in the literature. We define their suitable smooth models, and we show that they are the same. In particular, we obtain a characterization of smooth log del Pezzo pairs…
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…
For Fano varieties, significant progress has been made recently in the study of $K$-stability, while the understanding of the weaker but more algebraic concept of $(-K)$-slope stability remains intricate. For instance, a conjecture…
We prove the Yau-Tian-Donaldson's conjecture for any $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano variety that has a log smooth resolution of singularities such that the discrepancies of all exceptional divisors are non-positive. In other words, if such a Fano…
We provide a sufficient condition for polarisations of Fano varieties to be K-stable in terms of Tian's alpha invariant, which uses the log canonical threshold to measure singularities of divisors in the linear system associated to the…
Asymptotically log Fano pairs were introduced by Cheltsov and Rubinstein, generalising a definition of Maeda. They have received attention in the last decade within the theory of K-stability, as they approximate log Calabi Yau pairs while…
We compute the $\delta$-invariant for pairs $(\mathbb{P}^2, \lambda C_d)$, where $C_d$ is a plane curve of degree $d \leq 4$. These computations provide new examples of $K$-stable and $K$-semistable log Fano pairs, and contribute to the…
We prove the existence and uniqueness of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on Q-Fano varieties with log terminal singularities (and more generally on log Fano pairs) whose Mabuchi functional is proper. We study analogues of the works of Perelman on…
This paper initiates the systematic study of the number of points of bounded height on symmetric squares of weak Fano varieties. We provide a general framework for establishing the point count on $\text{Sym}^2 X$. In the specific case of…
We study log canonical thresholds (also called global log canonical threshold or $\alpha$-invariant) of $\mathbb{R}$-linear systems. We prove existence of positive lower bounds in different settings, in particular, proving a conjecture of…
In this paper, we give a characterization of Fano type varieties in terms of the asymptotic base loci of $-(K_X+\Delta)$. We also show that for a potentially lc pair $(X,\Delta)$, if no plc centers are contained in the augmented base locus…
In this paper, we prove the conic version of YTD conjecture on log Fano manifolds.
We construct exceptional Fano varieties with the smallest known minimal log discrepancies in all dimensions. These varieties are well-formed hypersurfaces in weighted projective space. Their minimal log discrepancies decay doubly…
We prove that the anti-canonical divisors of weak Fano 3-folds with log canonical singularities are semiample. Moreover, we consider semiampleness of the anti-log canonical divisor of any weak log Fano pair with log canonical singularities.…
