We study multi-parameters deformations of isolated singularity function-germs on either a subanalytic set or a complex analytic spaces. We prove that if such a deformation has no coalescing of singular points, then it has constant…

We survey some recent topics on singularities, with a focus on their connection to the minimal model program. This includes the construction and properties of dual complexes, the proof of the ACC conjecture for log canonical thresholds and…

We show that if a finitely generated prime algebra $\Delta$ is a finitely generated maximal Cohen-Macaulay module over its centre $Z$, and has global dimension equal to $\dim Z$, then the pair given by its centre and ramification divisor is…

Working with a singular variety X, one is often interested in comparing the set of etale covers of X with that of its smooth locus X_reg. More precisely, one may ask: What are the obstructions to extend finite etale covers of X_reg to all…

We give a short direct proof for the degeneration formula of Gromov-Witten invariants including its cycle version for degenerations with smooth singular locus in the setting of minimal/basic stable log maps of Abramovich-Chen, Chen,…

In the algebraic theory of K-stability, one of the most challenging problems is to show the graded algebra associated with certain higher rank quasi-monomial valuations are finitely generated. In the global case of Fano varieties and local…

Consider a compact connected Lie group $G$ and the corresponding Lie algebra $\cal L$. Let $\{X_1,...,X_m\}$ be a set of generators for the Lie algebra $\cal L$. We prove that $G$ is uniformly finitely generated by $\{X_1,...,X_m\}$. This…

We prove a new, universal gradient continuity estimate for solutions to quasilinear equations with varying coefficients at points on its critical singular set of degeneracy $S(u) := \{X : D u(X) = 0 \}$. Our main Theorem reveals that along…

1) Assuming log Minimal Model Conjecture, we give a construction of a complete moduli space of stable log pairs of arbitrary dimension generalizing directly the space M_{g,n} of pointed stable curves. Each stable pair has semi log canonical…

In a recent work, Kai Tang conjectured that any compact Hermitian manifold with non-zero constant mixed curvature must be K\"ahler. He confirmed the conjecture in complex dimension $2$ and for Chern K\"ahler-like manifolds in general…

G. Tian and S.K. Donaldson formulated a conjecture relating GIT stability of a polarized algebraic variety to the existence of a Kahler metric of constant scalar curvature. In [Don02] Donaldson partially confirmed it in the case of…

Let $ \chi $ be a virtual (generalized) character of a finite group $ G $ and $ L=L(\chi)$ be the image of $ \chi $ on $ G-\lbrace 1 \rbrace $. The pair $ (G, \chi) $ is said to be sharp of type $ L $ if $|G|=\prod _{ l \in L} (\chi(1) - l)…

A 3-fold terminal quotient singularity X=C^3/G admits the economic resolution Y-> X, which is "close to being crepant". This paper proves that the economic resolution Y is isomorphic to a distinguished component of a moduli space of certain…

In the first part of this note, we introduce Tietze transformations for $L$-presentations. These transformations enable us to generalize Tietze's theorem for finitely presented groups to invariantly finitely $L$-presented groups. Moreover,…

We study isolated quotient singularities by finite and linearly reductive group schemes (lrq singularities for short) and show that they satisfy many, but not all, of the known properties of finite quotient singularities in characteristic…

The well-known Nakai Conjecture concerns a very natural question: For an algebra of finite type over a characteristic zero field, if the ring of its differential operators is generated by the first order derivations, is the algebra regular?…

We give another alternative proof to the Kawamata semiampleness theorem for the log canonical divisors on klt varieties which are nef and abundant. After the first version of this article was posted to the e-print Arxiv, Prof. Fujino…

We prove the Kawaguchi-Silverman conjecture (KSC), about the equality of arithmetic degree and dynamical degree, for every surjective endomorphism of any (possibly singular) projective surface. In high dimensions, we show that KSC holds for…

In "Singularities on Normal Varieties", de Fernex and Hacon started the study of singularities on non-Q-Gorenstein varieties using pullbacks of Weil divisors. In "Log Terminal Singularities", the author of this paper and Urbinati introduce…

We prove that among all Koll\'ar components obtained by plt blow ups of a klt singularity $o \in (X, D)$, there is at most one that is (log-)K-semistable. We achieve this by showing that if such a Koll\'ar component exists, it uniquely…
