Let $(X,\Delta)$ be a projective log canonical pair such that $\Delta \geq A$ where $A \geq 0$ is an ample $\mathbb{R}$-divisor. We prove that either $(X,\Delta)$ has a good minimal model or a Mori fibre space. Moreover, if $X$ is…

We systematically introduce and study a new type of singularities, namely, exceptionally non-canonical (enc) singularities. This class of singularities plays an important role in the study of many questions in birational geometry, and has…

In \cite[Section 5, p.32]{Arnold-1998}, Arnold writes: "Classification of singularities of curves can be interpreted in dual terms as a description of 'co-artin' subalgebras of finite co-dimension in the algebra of formal series in a single…

We give canonical resolutions of singularities of several cone varieties arising from invariant theory. We establish a connection between our resolutions and resolutions of singularities of closure of conjugacy classes in classical Lie…

An intriguing correspondence between four-qubit systems and simple singularity of type $D_4$ is established. We first consider an algebraic variety $X$ of separable states within the projective Hilbert space…

We prove semi-rationalification and semi-log-canonicalization for Gorenstein demi-normal surfaces. That is, given a Gorenstein demi-normal surface X with semi-rational (respectively, semi-log canonical) singularities in an open set U with…

If $X$ is Frobenius split, then so is its normalization and we explore conditions which imply the converse. To do this, we recall that given an $\mathcal{O}_X$-linear map $\phi : F_* \mathcal{O}_X \to \mathcal{O}_X$, it always extends to a…

In this paper, we investigate properties of potential triples $(X,\Delta,D)$ which consists of a pair $(X,\Delta)$ and a pseudoeffective $\mathbb{R}$-Cartier divisor $D$. In particular, we show that if $D$ admits a birational Zariski…

In a series of recent papers, Chiodo, Farkas and Ludwig carry out a deep analysis of the singular locus of the moduli space of stable (twisted) curves with an $\ell$-torsion line bundle. They show that for $\ell\leq 6$ and $\ell\neq 5$…

In this paper we introduce a notion of rational singularities associated to pairs $(X, \ba^t)$ where $X$ is a variety, $\ba$ is an ideal sheaf and $t$ is a nonnegative real number. We prove that most standard results about rational…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety. We study a relationship between the derived category of $X$ and that of a canonical divisor. As an application, we will study Fourier-Mukai transforms when $\kappa (X)=dim X-1$.

We build foundations of an approach to study canonical forms of $2$-Calabi--Yau triangulated categories with cluster-tilting objects, using dg algebras and relative singularity categories. This is motivated by cluster theory, singularity…

Let $X$ be a projective variety with an isolated $A_2$ singularity. We study its bounded derived category and prove that there exists a crepant categorical resolution $\pi_*\colon \widetilde{\mathcal{D}} \to D^b(X)$, which is a Verdier…

The main problem studied is resolution of singularities of the cotangent sheaf of a complex- or real-analytic variety Y (or of an algebraic variety Y over a field of characteristic zero). Given Y, we ask whether there is a global resolution…

We provide a rough classification of threefold exceptionally non-canonical cDV quotient singularities by studying their combinatorial behavior.

We prove an analogue of the Lefschetz (1,1) Theorem characterizing cohomology classes of Cartier divisors (or equivalently first Chern classes of line bundles) in the second integral cohomology. Let $X$ be a normal complex projective…

Let $G$ be a finite subgroup of $\text{SL}(2,\Bbbk)$ and let $R = \Bbbk[x,y]^G$ be the coordinate ring of the corresponding Kleinian singularity. In 1998, Crawley-Boevey and Holland defined deformations $\mathcal{O}^\lambda$ of $R$…

Let $(X, \Delta)/U$ be klt pairs and $Q$ be a convex set of divisors. Assuming that the relative Kodaira dimensions are non-negative, then there are only finitely many log canonical models when the boundary divisors varying in a relatively…

We exhibit a new subadditivity formula for test ideals on singular varieties using an argument similar to those of Demailly-Ein-Lazarsfeld and Hara-Yoshida. Any subadditivity formula for singular varieties must have a correction term that…

In this paper, a $\mathbb{Q}$HD singularity is a weighted homogeneous normal surface singularity admitting a rational homology disk ($\mathbb{Q}$HD) smoothing. These singularities are rational but often not log canonical. We classify all…
