We show that log canonical thresholds of fixed dimension are standardized. More precisely, we show that any sequence of log canonical thresholds in fixed dimension $d$ accumulates in a way which is i) either similar to how standard and…

We show that the log canonical threshold polytopes of varieties with log canonical singularities satisfy the ascending chain condition.

As is well known, the "usual discrepancy" is defined for a normal Q-Gorenstein variety. By using this discrepancy we can define a canonical singularity and a log canonical singularity. In the same way, by using a new notion, Mather-Jacobian…

We provide a sufficient condition for polarisations of Fano varieties to be K-stable in terms of Tian's alpha invariant, which uses the log canonical threshold to measure singularities of divisors in the linear system associated to the…

We show that there exists a positive real number $\delta>0$ such that for any normal quasi-projective $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein $3$-fold $X$, if $X$ has worse than canonical singularities, that is, the minimal log discrepancy of $X$ is less…

We study Kawamata log terminal singularities of full rank, i.e., $n$-dimensional klt singularities containing a large finite abelian group of rank $n$ in its regional fundamental group. The main result of this article is that klt…

We prove the Yau-Tian-Donaldson's conjecture for any $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano variety that has a log smooth resolution of singularities such that the discrepancies of all exceptional divisors are non-positive. In other words, if such a Fano…

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…

Shokurov's ACC Conjecture says that the set of all log canonical thresholds on varieties of bounded dimension satisfies the Ascending Chain Condition. This conjecture was proved for log canonical thresholds on smooth varieties in [EM1].…

The present paper is concerned with differential forms on log canonical varieties. It is shown that any p-form defined on the smooth locus of a variety with canonical or klt singularities extends regularly to any resolution of…

For a toric log variety with standard coefficients, we show that the minimal log discrepancy at a closed invariant point bounds the Cartier index of a neighbourhood.

Let (X,D) be a dlt pair, where X is a normal projective variety. Let S denote the support of the rounddown of D, and K the canonical divisor of X. We show that any smooth family of canonically polarized varieties over X\S is isotrivial if…

In this paper we show that the global (log) canonical threshold of $d$-sheeted covers of the $M$-dimensional projective space of index 1, where $d\geqslant 4$, is equal to one for almost all families (except for a finite set). The varieties…

We consider the quotient variety associated to a linear representation of the cyclic group of order p in characteristic p>0. We estimate the minimal discrepancy of exceptional divisors over the singular locus. In particular, we give…

Shokurov conjectured that the set of all log canonical thresholds on varieties of bounded dimension satisfies the ascending chain condition. In this paper we prove that the conjecture holds for log canonical thresholds on smooth varieties…

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…

In this paper, we define potential log canonical threshold and prove that the set of those thresholds satisfies the ascending chain condition (ACC). We also consider collections of sequences of Fano type varieties and we study their basic…

It is known that there are only finitely many mutation-equivalence classes with a given singularity content, and each of these equivalence classes contains only finitely many minimal polygons. We describe an efficient algorithm to classify…

This article contains an elementary constructive proof of resolution of singularities in characteristic zero. Our proof applies in particular to schemes of finite type and to analytic spaces (so we recover the great theorems of Hironaka).…

Building on results of Koll\'ar, we prove Shokurov's ACC Conjecture for log canonical thresholds on smooth varieties, and more generally, on varieties with quotient singularities.
