We show that any $n$-dimensional Fano manifold $X$ with $\alpha(X)=n/(n+1)$ and $n\geq 2$ is K-stable, where $\alpha(X)$ is the alpha invariant of $X$ introduced by Tian. In particular, any such $X$ admits K\"ahler-Einstein metrics and the…
We prove that all smooth Fano threefolds with Picard rank 2 and degree 28 are K-polystable, except for some explicit cases which we describe. We also give a classification of the normal bundle of a rational normal quartic curve in a smooth…
We prove that the degree of the CM line bundle for a normal family over a curve with fixed general fibers is strictly minimized if the special fiber is either a smooth projective manifold with a unique cscK metric or ``specially K-stable",…
We study K-stability of products of K-stable $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties.
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…
A C*-algebra is said to be K-stable if its nonstable K-groups are naturally isomorphic to the usual K-theory groups. We study continuous $C(X)$-algebras, each of whose fibers are K-stable. We show that such an algebra is itself K-stable…
We define a new notion of "b-stability" for a polarised algebraic variety, adapted to the existence problem for Kahler-Einstein metrics on Fano manifolds.
We give new proofs of the K-polystability of two smooth Fano threefolds. One of them is a~smooth divisor in $\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^2$ of degree $(1,1,1)$, which is unique up to isomorphism. Another one is the~blow…
We prove that all general smooth Fano threefolds of Picard rank $3$ and degree $14$ are K-stable, where the generality condition is stated explicitly.
We prove that all smooth Fano threefolds in the families 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.6 and 2.7 are K-stable, and we also prove that smooth Fano threefolds in the family 2.5 that satisfy one very explicit generality condition are K-stable.
We prove that a log Fano cone $(X,\Delta,\xi_0)$ satisfying $\delta_\mathbb{T}(X,\Delta,\xi_0)\ge 1$ is K-polystable for normal test configurations if and only if it is K-polystable for special test configurations. We also establish the…
The Chow-Mumford (CM) line bundle is a functorial line bundle on the base of any family of klt Fano varieties. It is conjectured that it yields a polarization on the moduli space of K-poly-stable klt Fano varieties. Proving ampleness of the…
We prove that every projectively normal Fano manifold in $\mathbb{P}^{n+r}$ of index $1$, codimension $r$ and dimension $n\geq 10r$ is birationally superrigid and K-stable. This result was previously proved by Zhuang under the complete…
We find all K-polystable smooth Fano threefolds that can be obtained as blowup of projective space along the disjoint union of a twisted cubic curve and a line.
We prove that constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) manifolds with transcendental cohomology class are K-semistable, naturally generalising the situation for polarised manifolds. Relying on a very recent result by R. Berman, T. Darvas…
We give an algebraic proof of the equivalence of equivariant K-semistability (resp. equivariant K-polystability) with geometric K-semistability (resp. geometric K-polystability). Along the way we also prove the existence and uniqueness of…
Given a one parameter flat family of polarized algebraic varieties, we show that any K-stable limit is unique. In particular, moduli spaces of K-stable polarized varieties are automatically Hausdorff when they exist. We also give a…
It is conjectured that the existence of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics will be equivalent to K-stability, or K-polystability depending on terminology (Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture). There is another GIT stability condition,…
In this thesis we study the relationship between the existence of canonical metrics on a complex manifold and stability in the sense of geometric invariant theory. We introduce a modification of K-stability of a polarised variety which we…
Ross and Thomas introduced the concept of slope stability to study K-stability, which has conjectural relation with the existence of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric. This paper presents a study of slope stability of Fano manifolds…
