We show that $k$-th iterated accumulation points of pseudo-effective thresholds of $n$-dimensional varieties are bounded by $n-k+1$.

Let B be a nef and big line bundle on a smooth complex threefold X with canonical bundle K. Let x be a point on X and suppose that BC\ge3 for any curve C passing x, B^2S\ge7 for any surface S containing x, and B^3\ge51. Then K+B is spanned…

Let $(X,C)$ be a germ of a threefold $X$ with terminal singularities along an irreducible reduced complete curve $C$ with a contraction $f: (X,C)\to (Z,o)$ such that $C=f^{-1}(o)_{red}$ and $-K_X$ is ample. Assume that $(X,C)$ contains a…

Let $(X, \Delta)$ be a klt threefold pair with nef anti-log canonical bundle $-(K_X+\Delta)$. We show that $\kappa(X, -(K_X+\Delta))\geq 0$. To do so, we prove a more general equivariant non-vanishing result for anti-log canonical bundles,…

We show that if a divisor centered over a point on a smooth surface computes a minimal log discrepancy, then the divisor also computes a log canonical threshold. To prove the result, we study the asymptotic log canonical threshold of the…

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…

In this paper, we establish a vanishing theorem of Nadel type for the Witt multiplier ideals on threefolds over perfect fields of characteristic larger than five. As an application, if a projective normal threefold over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is…

Given positive integers $n,k$ with $k\leq n$, we consider the number of ways of choosing $k$ subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ in such a way that the union of these subsets gives $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ and they are not subsets of each other. We refer…

Let V be a smooth projective 3-fold of general type. Denote by $K^3$, a rational number, the self-intersection of the canonical sheaf of any minimal model of V. One defines $K^3$ as the canonical volume of $V$. Assume $p_g\ge 2$. We show…

We study log canonical thresholds on quartic threefolds, quintic fourfolds, and double spaces. As an application, we show that they have a Kaehler-Einstein metric if they are general.

Let $(X, \Delta)$ be a four-dimensional log variety that is projective over the field of complex numbers. Assume that $(X, \Delta)$ is not Kawamata log terminal (klt) but divisorial log terminal (dlt). First we introduce the notion of "log…

Let T_n denote the set of log canonical thresholds of pairs (X,Y), with X a nonsingular variety of dimension n, and Y a nonempty closed subscheme of X. Using non-standard methods, we show that every limit of a decreasing sequence in T_n…

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…

Let $Q$ be a set of primes with relative density $\delta$. We count integers in $[1,x]$ with prime factors all in $Q$ that also have a divisor in $(y,2y]$. We establish the order of magnitude for all $\delta \in (0,1]$. This generalizes the…

We study supersolvable line arrangements in ${\mathbb P}^2$ over the reals and over the complex numbers, as the first step toward a combinatorial classification. Our main results show that a nontrivial (i.e., not a pencil or near pencil)…

Let $X$ be a Gorenstein minimal projective $n$-fold with at worst locally factorial terminal singularities, and suppose that the canonical map of $X$ is generically finite onto its image. When $n<4$, the canonical degree is universally…

We prove that the interval $(5/6, 1)$ contains no 3-dimensional canonical thresholds.

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…

Let $V$ be a complex nonsingular projective 3-fold of general type with $\chi(\omega_V)\geq 0$ (resp. $>0$). We prove that the m-canonical map $\Phi_{|mK_V|}$ is birational onto its image for all $m\ge 14$ (resp. $\geq 8$). Known examples…

We investigate the existence of maximal collections of mutually noncrossing $k$-element subsets of $\left\{ 1, \dots, n \right\}$ that are invariant under adding $k\pmod n$ to all indices. Our main result is that such a collection exists if…
