In this article we prove a local implication of boundedness of Fano varieties. More precisely, we prove that $d$-dimensional $a$-log canonical singularities, with standard coefficients, which admit an $\epsilon$-plt blow-up have minimal log…
In this paper we give a criterion for an isolated, hypersurface singularity of dimension $n\ (\geq 2)$ to have the canonical modification by means of a suitable weighted blow-up. Then we give a counter example to the following conjecture by…
We answer a question raised by Caucher Birkar for singularities of weighted blowups of $\mathbb{A}^n$, if $n\leq 3$.
In this paper we apply Shokurov's inductive method to study terminal and canonical singularities. As an easy consequence of the Minimal Model Program we show that for any three-dimensional log terminal singularity there exists some special,…
We study a pair consisting of a smooth 3-fold defined over an algebraically closed field and a general real ideal. We show that the minimal log discrepancy of every such a pair is computed by a prime divisor obtained by at most two weighted…
There is a proposition due to Koll\'ar 1997 on computing log canonical thresholds of certain hypersurface germs using weighted blowups, which we extend to weighted blowups with non-negative weights. Using this, we show that the log…
In characteristic zero, we construct logarithmic resolution of singularities, with simple normal crossings exceptional divisor, using weighted blow-ups.
A singularity is said to be weakly-exceptional if it has a unique purely log terminal blow up. This is a natural generalization of the surface singularities of types $D_{n}$, $E_{6}$, $E_{7}$ and $E_{8}$. Since this idea was introduced,…
A singularity is said to be weakly--exceptional if it has a unique purely log terminal blow up. In dimension $2$, V. Shokurov proved that weakly--exceptional quotient singularities are exactly those of types $D_{n}$, $E_{6}$, $E_{7}$,…
In this paper we study the blow-ups of the singular points in the boundary of a minimizing cluster lying in the interface of more than two chambers. We establish a sharp lower bound for the perimeter density at those points and we prove…

We first introduce and study the notion of multi-weighted blow-ups, which is later used to systematically construct an explicit yet efficient algorithm for functorial logarithmic resolution in characteristic zero, in the sense of Hironaka.…
We consider equivariant wave maps from $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ to $\mathbb{S}^d$ in supercritical dimensions $3\leq d\leq 6$. Using mixed numerical and analytic methods, we show that the threshold of blowup is given by the codimension-one stable…
Generalizing previous results of Arezzo-Pacard-Singer, Seyyedali-Sz\'ekelyhidi and Hallam, we prove the invariance under smooth blowups of the class of weighted extremal K\"ahler manifolds, modulo a log-concavity assumption on the first…
In this paper we prove uniqueness of blow-ups and $C^{1,\log}$-regularity for the free-boundary of minimizers of the Alt-Caffarelli functional at points where one blow-up has an isolated singularity. We do this by establishing a…
We study development of singularities for the spherically symmetric Yang-Mills equations in $d+1$ dimensional Minkowski spacetime for $d=4$ (the critical dimension) and $d=5$ (the lowest supercritical dimension). Using combined numerical…
We study log canonical thresholds (also called global log canonical threshold or $\alpha$-invariant) of $\mathbb{R}$-linear systems. We prove existence of positive lower bounds in different settings, in particular, proving a conjecture of…
We consider spherically symmetric supercritical focusing wave equations outside a ball. Using mixed analytical and numerical methods, we show that the threshold for blowup is given by a codimension-one stable manifold of the unique static…
We establish existence of functorial orbifold reductions of singularities for Poisson subvarieties in smooth Poisson threefolds. Namely, we show that with enough weighted blowups, one can reduce the singularities of such Poisson…
The purely log terminal blow-ups of three-dimensional terminal toric singularities are described. The three-dimensional divisorial contractions $f\colon (Y,E)\to (X\ni P)$ are described provided that $\Exc f=E$ is an irreducible divisor,…
