We investigate the variation of log canonical thresholds in (graded) linear systems. For toric log Fano varieties, we give a sharp lower bound for log canonical thresholds of the anticanonical members in terms of the global minimal log…

We introduce real log canonical threshold and real jumping numbers for real algebraic functions. A real jumping number is a root of the $b$-function up to a sign if its difference with the minimal one is less than 1. The real log canonical…

We describe the set of minimal log discrepancies of toric log varities, and study its accumulation points.

In this paper, we initiate our investigation of log canonical models for the moduli space of curves with the boundary divisor $\a \d$ as we decrease $\a$ from 1 to 0. We prove that for the first critical value $\a = 9/11$, the log canonical…

For a birational log Fano contraction, it is conjectured an inequality between the dimension of its exceptional locus and the minimal log discrepancy over the locus. The conjecture follows from the existence of the flip for the contraction…

We prove that if Y is a hypersurface of degree d in P^n with isolated singularities, then the log canonical threshold of (P^n,Y) is at least min{n/d,1}. Moreover, if d is at least n+1, then we have equality if and only if Y is the…

In this short note, we consider the conjecture that the log canonical divisor (resp. the anti-log canonical divisor) $K_X + \Delta$ (resp. $-(K_X + \Delta)$) on a pair $(X, \Delta)$ consisting of a complex projective manifold $X$ and a…

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.…

We discuss the relative log minimal model theory for log surfaces in the analytic setting. More precisely, we show that the minimal model program, the abundance theorem, and the finite generation of log canonical rings hold for log pairs of…

We prove that for each positive integer $n$ there exists a positive number $\epsilon_n$ so that $n$-dimensional toric quotient singularities satisfy the ACC for mld's on the interval $(0,\epsilon_n)$. In the course of the proof, we will…

We prove that the log canonical thresholds of a large class of binomial ideals, such as complete intersection binomial ideals and the defining ideals of space monomial curves, are computable by linear programming.

We prove the existence of $n$-complements for pairs with DCC coefficients and the ACC for minimal log discrepancies of exceptional singularities. In order to prove these results, we develop the theory of complements for real coefficients.…

We give a counterexample to the PIA (precise inversion of adjunction) conjecture for minimal log discrepancies. We also give a counterexample to the LSC conjecture for families.

We show that generalized log canonical thresholds for complex analytic spaces satisfy the ACC and we characterize the accumulation points.

We investigate exponential sums over those numbers $\leq x$ all of whose prime factors are $\leq y$. We prove fairly good minor arc estimates, valid whenever $\log^{3}x \leq y \leq x^{1/3}$. Then we prove sharp upper bounds for the $p$-th…

We prove the finiteness of log pluricanonical representations for projective log canonical pairs with semi-ample log canonical divisor. As a corollary, we obtain that the log canonical divisor of a projective semi log canonical pair is…

We study the connectedness of the non-subklt locus over the spectrum of a formal power series ring. In dimension 3, we prove the existence and normality of the smallest lc centre, and apply it to the ACC for minimal log discrepancies…

We describe the resolution of singularities of a threefold which has minimal Picard number. We describe the relation between this minimal resolution and an arbitrary resolution of singularities.

We study a unified approach and algorithm for constructive discrepancy minimization based on a stochastic process. By varying the parameters of the process, one can recover various state-of-the-art results. We demonstrate the flexibility of…
