We show the validity of two special cases of the four-dimensional Minimal Model Program in characteristic $p>5$: for contractions to $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial fourfolds and in families over curves ("semi-stable mmp"). We also provide their…
Classical Serre-Tate theory describes deformations of ordinary abelian varieties. It implies that every such variety has a canonical lift to characteristic zero and equips its local moduli space with a Frobenius lifting and canonical…
We construct higher-dimensional Calabi-Yau varieties defined over a given number field with Zariski dense sets of rational points. We give two elementary constructions in arbitrary dimensions as well as another construction in dimension…
In this paper, we prove the Kobayashi hyperbolicity of the coarse moduli spaces of canonically polarized or polarized Calabi-Yau manifolds in the sense of complex $V$-spaces (a generalization of complex $V$-manifolds in the sense of…
We extend two results on Chow (semi-)stability to positive characteristics. One is on the stability of non-singular projective hypersurfaces of degree greater than 2, and the other is the criterion by Y. Lee in terms of log canonical…
We study the full stable pair theory --- with descendents --- of the Calabi-Yau 3-fold $X=K_S$, where $S$ is a surface with a smooth canonical divisor $C$. By both $\mathbb C^*$-localisation and cosection localisation we reduce to stable…
We elucidate the relation between smooth Calabi-Yau structures and pre-Calabi-Yau structures. We show that, from a smooth Calabi-Yau structure on an $A_\infty$-category $A$, one can produce a pre-Calabi-Yau structure on $A$; as defined in…
In this paper, we proved that a log smooth family of log general type klt pairs with a special (in the sense of Campana) quasi-projective base is isotrivial. As a consequence, we proved the generalized Kebekus-Kov\'acs conjecture…
We define a variant of normal basis, called a {\em Galois scaffolding}, that allows for an easy determination of valuation, and has implications for Galois module structure. We identify fully ramified, elementary abelian extensions of local…
We give an explicit example of log Calabi-Yau pairs that are log canonical and have a linearly decreasing Euler characteristic. This is constructed in terms of a degree two covering of a sequence of blow ups of three dimensional projective…
We investigate the holonomy group of singular K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on klt varieties with numerically trivial canonical divisor. Finiteness of the number of connected components, a Bochner principle for holomorphic tensors, and a…
We prove a logarithmic base change theorem for pushforwards of pluri-canonical bundles and use it to deduce that positivity properties of log canonical divisors descend via smooth projective morphisms. As an application, for a surjective…
We set up a generalization of ubiquitous one-parameter families in algebraic geometry and their use for stability theories ([GIT, HL, AHLH]) to families over toric varieties and their analytic analogues. The language allows us to…
We discuss Calabi-Yau and fractional Calabi-Yau semiorthogonal components of derived categories of coherent sheaves on smooth projective varieties. The main result is a general construction of a fractional Calabi-Yau category from a…
We construct examples of symplectic half-flat manifolds on compact quotients of solvable Lie groups. We prove that the Calabi-Yau structures are not rigid in the class of symplectic half-flat structures. Moreover, we provide an example of a…
The Deligne-Mumford stable reduction theorem asserts that for a family of stable curves over the punctured disk, after a finite base change, the family can be completed in a unique way to a family of stable curves over the disk. In this…
In previous work, the first three authors conjectured that the ring of regular functions on a natural class of affine log Calabi-Yau varieties (those with maximal boundary) has a canonical vector space basis parameterized by the integral…
We prove Viehweg's hyperbolicity conjecture over compact bases and over bases with non-uniruled compactification. The most general case of the conjecture states that the the base space of a maximal variation family of smooth projective…
Consider a smooth projective family of complex polarized manifolds with semi-ample canonical sheaf over a quasi-projective manifold $V$. When the associated moduli map $V\to P_h$ from the base to coarse moduli space is quasi-finite, we…
In this paper, we establish a criterion for an overconvergent isocrystal on a smooth variety over a field of characteristic $p>0$ to extend logarithmically to its smooth compactification whose complement is a strict normal crossing divisor.…
