We show that the degrees of rational endomorphisms of very general complex Fano and Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces satisfy certain congruence conditions by specializing to characteristic p. As a corollary we show that very general n-dimensional…

It is proven that any structure of a fibre space into varieties of Kodaira dimension zero on a generic Fano complete intersection of index one and dimension $M$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M+k}$ for $M\geq 2k+1$ is a pencil of hyperplane sections. We…

We show that five of Reid's Fano 3-fold hyperurfaces containing at least one compound Du Val singularity of type $cA_n$ have pliability at least two. The two elements of the pliability set are the singular hypersurface itself, and another…

Let X be a complete intersection of two hypersurfaces F_n and F_k in the projective space P^5 of degree n and k respectively with n >= k, such that the singularities of X are nodal and F_k is smooth. We prove that if the threefold X has at…

We give a lower bound of the $\delta$-invariants of ample line bundles in terms of Seshadri constants. As applications, we prove the uniform K-stability of infinitely many families of Fano hypersurfaces of arbitrarily large index, as well…

We study the K-stability of singular Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein singularities whose anticanonical linear system is base-point-free but not very ample.

We prove the birational superrigidity and nonrationality of a hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{6}$ of degree 6 having at most isolated ordinary double points.

We prove that on any log Fano pair of dimension $n$ whose stability threshold is less than $\frac{n+1}{n}$, any valuation computing the stability threshold has a finitely generated associated graded ring. Together with earlier works, this…

In this paper we describe the birational geometry of Fano double spaces $V\stackrel{\sigma}{\to}{\mathbb P}^{M+1}$ of index 2 and dimension $\geqslant 8$ with at mostquadratic singularities of rank $\geqslant 8$, satisfying certain…

We study finite $p$-subgroups of birational automorphism groups. By virtue of boundedness theorem of Fano varieties, we prove that there exists a constant $R(n)$ such that a rationally connected variety of dimension $n$ over an…

On a general Fano hypersurface in projective space, we determine for infinitely many $k$ the minimal degree $e$ of a rational curve through a general collection of $k$ points. In the case of a hypersurface of index 1, our results hold for…

We show that certain Galois covers of K-semistable Fano varieties are K-stable. We use this to give some new examples of Fano manifolds admitting K\"ahler-Einstein metrics, including hypersurfaces, double solids and threefolds.

We show that k-rational singularities of local complete intersections are k-Du Bois. For hypersurfaces, we characterize k-rationality in terms of the minimal exponent. We also establish some local vanishing results for k-rational and k-Du…

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…

In this note, we give sufficient conditions for the (semi)stability of a hypersurface $H$ of $\mathbb{P}^N_k$ in terms of its degree $d$, the maximal multiplicity $\delta$ of its singularities, and the dimension $s$ of its singular locus.…

We prove some criteria for uniform K-stability of log Fano pairs. In particular, we show that uniform K-stability is equivalent to $\beta$-invariant having a positive lower bound. Then we study the relation between optimal destabilization…

The aim of this paper is to prove two results concerning the rigidity of complete, immersed, orientable, stable minimal hypersurfaces: we show that they are hyperplane in $\mathbb{R}^4$, while they do not exist in positively curved closed…

Let X be a Fano manifold. G.Tian proves that if X admits a Kaehler-Einstein metric, then it satisfies two different stability conditions: one involving the Futaki invariant of a special degeneration of X, the other Hilbert-Mumford-stability…

We prove singularity criteria for the $t$-K-stability of adjoint foliated structures. We first show that K-semistability of adjoint foliated structures implies log canonicity by extending Odaka's flag ideal characterisation of the mixed…

A conjecture of Pukhlikov states that a smooth Fano variety of dimension at least four and index one is birationally rigid. We show that a general member of the linear system given by the ample generator of the Picard group of the moduli…
