We prove that for a locally stable family of klt singularities with constant local volume, the ideal sequences of the minimizing valuations for the normalized volume function form a family of ideals with flat cosupport, which induces a…

We survey some recent development in the stability theory of klt singularities. The main focus is on the solution of the stable degeneration conjecture.

We confirm a conjecture of Chi Li which says that the minimizer of the normalized volume function for a klt singularity is unique up to rescaling. This is achieved by defining stability thresholds for valuations, and then showing that a…

We prove a conjecture of Koll\'ar stating that the local fundamental group of a klt singularity $x$ is finite. In fact, we prove a stronger statement, namely that the fundamental group of the smooth locus of a neighbourhood of $x$ is…

In this paper, we prove that klt singularities are invariant under deformations if the generic fiber is $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein. We also obtain a similar result for slc singularities. These are generalizations of results of Esnault-Viehweg…

We prove the stable degeneration conjecture of log Fano fibration germs formulated by Sun-Zhang. Precisely, we introduce the $\mathbf{H}$-invariant for filtrations over a log Fano fibration germ, and show that there exists a unique…

We prove the K-moduli space of cubic threefolds is identical to their GIT moduli. More precisely, the K-(semi,poly)-stability of cubic threefolds coincide to the corresponding GIT stabilities, which could be explicitly calculated. In…

Given a klt singularity $x\in (X, D)$, we show that a quasi-monomial valuation $v$ with a finitely generated associated graded ring is the minimizer of the normalized volume function $\widehat{\rm vol}_{(X,D),x}$, if and only if $v$ induces…

Li introduced the normalized volume of a valuation due to its relation to K-semistability. He conjectured that over a klt singularity there exists a valuation with smallest normalized volume. We prove this conjecture and provide an example…

In this note, we aim to prove the finite semi-algebraic chamber decomposition theorem for K-semi(poly)stability under the assumption of the log boundedness of K-semistable degenerations. This boundedness assumption is naturally arising from…

In this paper, a $\mathbb{Q}$HD singularity is a weighted homogeneous normal surface singularity admitting a rational homology disk ($\mathbb{Q}$HD) smoothing. These singularities are rational but often not log canonical. We classify all…

We study a useful numerical invariant of normal surface singularities, introduced recently by T. Kawachi. Using this invariant, we give a quick proof of the (well-known) fact that all log-canonical surface singularities are either elliptic…

Using classical results from Hodge theory and more contemporary ones valid for complex projective varieties with Kawamata log terminal (klt) singularities, we deduce necessary and sufficient conditions for such varieties to be uniformized…

In this article, we propose a boundedness conjecture for the regional fundamental group of klt singularities. We prove that this boundedness conjecture, the Zariski closedness of the diminished base locus of $K_X$, and an upper bound for…

Generalizing work of Smith and Hara, we give a new characterization of log-terminal singularities for finitely generated algebras over $\mathbb C$, in terms of purity properties of ultraproducts of characteristic $p$ Frobenii. The first…

We prove a version of Jonsson-Musta\c{t}\v{a}'s Conjecture, which says for any graded sequence of ideals, there exists a quasi-monomial valuation computing its log canonical threshold. As a corollary, we confirm Chi Li's conjecture that a…

We show that in any $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein flat family of klt singularities, normalized volumes are lower semicontinuous with respect to the Zariski topology. A quick consequence is that smooth points have the largest normalized volume…

We investigate the singularities and boundedness of a special kind of algebraic varieties so-called stable minimal models, which are constructed and studied by Birkar. Given a klt stable minimal model with bounded relative volume, if we fix…

In this paper we prove the existence of purely log terminal blow-up for Kawamata log terminal singularity and obtain the criterion for a singularity to be weakly exceptional in terms of the exceptional divisor of plt blow-up.

We show that in any $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein flat family of klt singularities, normalized volumes can only jump down at countably many subvarieties. A quick consequence is that smooth points have the largest normalized volume among all klt…
