For a pair (X,L) consisting of a projective variety X over a perfect field of characteristic p>0 and an ample line bundle L on X, we introduce and study a positive characteristic analog of the $\alpha$-invariant introduced by Tian, which we…

We prove that the Fano variety of lines of a generic cubic fourfold containing a plane is isomorphic to a moduli space of twisted stable complexes on a K3 surface. On the other hand, we show that the Fano varieties are always birational to…

We construct a geometrically compactified moduli algebraic space of Kahler-Einstein Fano manifolds.

It is shown that a complex normal projective variety has non-positive Kodaira dimension if it admits a non-isomorphic quasi-polarized endomorphism. The geometric structure of the variety is described by methods of equivariant lifting and…

We endow the set of complements of a fixed subspace of a projective space with the structure of an affine space, and show that certain lines of such an affine space are affine reguli or cones over affine reguli. Moreover, we apply our…

We derive explicit dimension formulas for irreducible $M_F$-spherical $K_F$-representations where $K_F$ is the maximal compact subgroup of the general linear group $GL(d,F)$ over a local field $F$ and $M_F$ is a closed subgroup of $K_F$…

Let $A$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra and $\alpha$ be an injective, unital endomorphism of $A$. A covariant representation of $(A,\alpha)$ is a pair $(\pi,T)$ consisting of a $C^*$-representation $\pi$ of $A$ on a Hilbert space $H$ and a…

We introduce a model which allows the fine structure constant (alpha) to vary throughout space and time due to a coupling to a scalar field with a non-canonical kinetic structure. This provided a new extension of the…

Let $X \subset \mathbb P(a_0,\ldots,a_n)$ be a quasi-smooth weighted Fano hypersurface of degree $d$ and index $I_X$ such that $a_i |d$ for all $i$, with $a_0 \le \ldots \le a_n$. If $I_X=1$, we show that, under a suitable condition, the…

This paper considers Q-Fano 3-folds X with \rho=1. The aim is to determine the maximal Fano index f of X. We prove that f<= 19, and that in case of equality, the Hilbert series of X equals that of weighted projective space PP(3,4,5,7). From…

We construct several new families of Fano varieties of K3 type. We give a geometrical explanation of the K3 structure and we link some of them to projective families of irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds.

We construct klt projective varieties with ample canonical class and the smallest known volume. We also find exceptional klt Fano varieties with the smallest known anticanonical volume. We conjecture that our examples have the smallest…

We compute global log canonical thresholds of certain birationally bi-rigid Fano 3-folds embedded in weighted projective spaces as complete intersections of codimension 2 and prove that they admit an orbifold K\"{a}hler-Einstein metric and…

We show that for every morphism f between nonsingular hypersurfaces of dimension at least 3 and of general type in projective space, there is an everywhere defined endomorphism F of projective space that restricts to f. As a corollary, we…

We show that any $n$-dimensional Fano manifold $X$ admitting K\"ahler-Einstein metrics satisfies that the anti-canonical volume is less than or equal to the value $(n+1)^n$. Moreover, the equality holds if and only if $X$ is isomorphic to…

In this paper we define a numerical shape invariant of a continuous map called shape dimension of a map, which generalizes the shape dimension of a topological space. Some basic properties and applications of this invariant are given. The…

We establish an upper bound for the sectional genus of varieties which are invariant under Pfaff fields on projective spaces.

We show that Fano lattice polygons define a class of balanced quivers with interesting properties. The combinatorics of these quivers is related to singularities of the underlying toric Fano surface. This allows us to show that every Fano…

In this paper, we consider the CM line bundle on the K-moduli space, i.e., the moduli space parametrizing K-polystable Fano varieties. We prove it is ample on any proper subspace parametrizing reduced uniformly K-stable Fano varieties which…

The quantum lens spaces form a natural and well-studied class of noncommutative spaces which can be subjected to classification using algebraic invariants by drawing on the fully developed classification theory of unital graph…
