In this paper we use min-max theory to study the existence free boundary minimal hypersurfaces (FBMHs) in compact manifolds with boundary $(M^{n+1}, \partial M, g)$, where $2\leq n\leq 6$. Under the assumption that $g$ is a local maximizer…
We develop a min-max theory for the construction of capillary surfaces in 3-manifolds with smooth boundary. In particular, for a generic set of ambient metrics, we prove the existence of nontrivial, smooth, almost properly embedded surfaces…
The goal of this article is to establish estimates involving the Yamabe minimal volume, mixed minimal volume and some topological invariants on compact 4-manifolds. In addition, we provide topological sphere theorems for compact…
We show that the $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano index of a canonical weak Fano $3$-fold is at most $66$. This upper bound is optimal and gives an affirmative answer to a conjecture of Chengxi Wang in dimension $3$. During the proof, we establish a new…
The cusped hyperbolic n-orbifolds of minimal volume are well known for $n \leq 9$. Their fundamental groups are related to the Coxeter n-simplex groups $\Gamma_n$ listed in Table 1. In this work, we prove that $\Gamma_n$ has minimal growth…
In this article we prove a relative Kawamata-Viehweg vanishing-type theorem for PLT $3$-folds in characteristic $p>5$. We use this to prove the normality of minimal log canonical centers and the adjunction formula for codimension $2$…
Building on work of Kapouleas and Yang, we construct sequences of minimal surfaces embedded in the round 3-sphere which converge to the Clifford torus counted with multiplicity two and have second fundamental form blowing up at every point…
We consider a class of stable smoothable n-dimensional varieties, the analogs of stable curves. Assuming the minimal model program in dimension n+1, we prove that this class is bounded. From Kollar's method of constructing projective moduli…
Let f be a generically finite morphism from X to Y. The purpose of this paper is to show how the O_Y algebra structure on the push forward of O_X controls algebro-geometric aspects of X like the ring generation of graded rings associated to…
We give degree lower bounds for quotient line bundles of the lowest piece of a Hodge module induced by a complex variation of Hodge structures outside a simple normal crossing divisor, beyond the unipotent variation case. This note aims to…
We prove that the $5$-canonical map of every minimal projective $3$-fold $X$ with $K_X^3\geq 86$ is stably birational onto its image, which loosens previous requirements $K_X^3>4355^3$ and $K_X^3>12^3$ respectively given by Todorov and…
We establish half-space type results for a class of height-dependent weighted minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$, namely critical points of a weighted area functional whose weight depends on the height. When the weight has at most quadratic…
We give the sharp lower bound of the volume product of three dimensional convex bodies which are invariant under two kinds of discrete subgroups of $O(3)$ of order four. We also characterize the convex bodies with the minimal volume product…
In this paper, we develop a general existence theory for properly embedded minimal surfaces with free boundary in any compact Riemannian 3-manifold $M$ with boundary $\partial M$. The main feature of our result is that no convexity…
In this article we prove the existence of pl-flipping and divisorial contractions and pl flips in dimension $n$ for compact K\"ahler varieties, assuming results of the minimal model program in dimension $n-1$. We also give a self contained…
We present the first polytope volume formulas for the multiplicities of affine fusion, the fusion in Wess-Zumino-Witten conformal field theories, for example. Thus, we characterise fusion multiplicities as discretised volumes of certain…
We obtain in arbitrary codimension a removability result on the order of singularity of weak limits and bubbles of Willmore immersions measured by the second residue. This permits to reduce significantly the number of possible bubbling…
We aim to classify codimension 1 foliations $\mathscr{F}$ with canonical singularities and $\nu(K_{\mathscr{F}}) < 3$ on threefolds of general type. We prove a classification result for foliations satisfying these conditions and having…
Answering a question posed by Enriques, we construct a minimal smooth algebraic surface $S$ of general type over the complex numbers with $K^2 = 45$ and $p_g = 4$, and with birational canonical map. Our surface is a regular (q=0) ball…
It is shown that $3$ disjoint sets with fixed Gaussian volumes that partition $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with nearly minimum total Gaussian surface area must be close to adjacent $120$ degree sectors, when $n\geq2$. These same results hold for any…
