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…

Let $(X,\Delta)$ be an $n$-dimensional $\epsilon$-klt log $\QQ$-Fano pair. We give an upper bound for the volume ${\rm Vol}(-(K_X+\Delta))=(-(K_X+\Delta))^n$ when $n=2$ or $n=3$ and $X$ is {$\QQ$-factorial} of $\rho(X)=1$. This bound is…

Let X be a Fano variety of index k such that the non-klt locus Nklt(X) is not empty. We prove that Nklt(X) has dimension at least k-1 and equality holds if and only if Nklt(X) is a linear projective space P^{k-1}. In this case X has lc…

We construct smooth projective varieties of general type with the smallest known volume and others with the most known vanishing plurigenera in high dimensions. The optimal volume bound is expected to decay doubly exponentially with…

This paper concerns the construction of minimal varieties with small canonical volumes. The first part devotes to establishing an effective nefness criterion for the canonical divisor of a weighted blow-up over a weighted hypersurface, from…

For any positive integer $k$ and any integer $n$ large enough, we construct a Fano variety $X$ with Picard number $k$ and dimension $n$ such that $((-K_X)^n)^{1/n}$ grows like $n^k/(\log n)^{k-1}$.

We show that fixed dimensional klt weak Fano pairs with alpha-invariants and volumes bounded away from $0$ and the coefficients of the boundaries belong to the set of hyperstandard multiplicities $\Phi(\mathscr{R})$ associated to a fixed…

In this paper we construct, for every n, smooth varieties of general type of dimension n with the first $\lfloor \frac{n-2}{3} \rfloor$ plurigenera equal to zero. Hacon-McKernan, Takayama and Tsuji have recently shown that there are numbers…

We show that the number of marked minimal models of an n-dimensional smooth complex projective variety of general type can be bounded in terms of its volume, and, if n=3, also in terms of its Betti numbers. For an n-dimensional projective…

We show that the anti-canonical volume of an $n$-dimensional K\"ahler-Einstein $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano variety is bounded from above by certain invariants of the local singularities, namely $\mathrm{lct}^n\cdot\mathrm{mult}$ for ideals and the…

In this article we prove the following version of the Weak-BAB conjecture for $3$-folds in char $p>5$: Fix a DCC set $I\subset [0, 1)$ and an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>5$. Let $\mathfrak{D}$ be a collection of klt…

Central limit theorems (CLTs) for high-dimensional random vectors with dimension possibly growing with the sample size have received a lot of attention in the recent times. Chernozhukov et al. (2017) proved a Berry--Esseen type result for…

In this paper, we prove the optimal volume growth for complete Riemannian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature everywhere and bi-Ricci curvature bounded from below by $n-2$ outside a compact set when the dimension is less…

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…

Let $d,k$ be natural numbers and let $\mathcal{L}_1, \dots, \mathcal{L}_k \in \mathrm{GL}_d(\mathbb{Q})$ be linear transformations such that there are no non-trivial subspaces $U, V \subseteq \mathbb{Q}^d$ of the same dimension satisfying…

The Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture for smooth complex varieties states that algebraic and topological K-theory with finite coefficients become isomorphic in high degrees. We define the "Lichtenbaum-Quillen dimension" of a variety in terms…

In this short note we give a construction of an infinite series of Delone simplices whose relative volume grows super-exponentially with their dimension. This dramatically improves the previous best lower bound, which was linear.

We study a class of first-order theories whose complete quantifier-free types with one free variable either have a trivial positive part or are isolated by a positive quantifier-free formula--plus a few other technical requirements. The…

We show that the complex projective space has maximal degree (volume) among all n-dimensional Kahler-Einstein Fano manifolds admitting a holomorphic C^*-action with a finite number of fixed points. The toric version of this result,…

Given a natural number $l$ and a weak Fano $n$-fold $X$ with $\operatorname{dim}\overline{\varphi_{-lK_X}(X)}\geq n-1$, we study the lower bound of the anti-canonical volume and the upper bound of the anti-canonical stability index. The…
