This paper studies the birational geometry of terminal Gorenstein Fano 3-folds. If Y is not Q-factorial, in most cases, it is possible to describe explicitly the divisor class group Cl Y by running a Minimal Model Program (MMP) on X, a…

Several known constructions relate initial degenerations of projective toric varieties and Grassmannians to regular subdivisions of appropriate point configurations. We define a general framework which allows for partial generalizations of…

We study the birational boundedness of special fibers of log Calabi-Yau fibrations and Fano fibrations. We show that for a locally stable family of Fano varieties or polarised log Calabi-Yau pairs over a curve, if the general fiber…

This paper contributes to the solution of the Poincare problem, which is to bound the degree of a (generalized algebraic) leaf of a (singular algebraic) foliation of the complex projective plane. The first theorem gives a new sort of bound,…

We extend the Chern-Heinz inequalities about mean curvature and scalar curvature of graphs of $C^{2}$-functions to leaves of transversally oriented codimension one $C^{2}$-foliations of Riemannian manifolds. That extends partially…

We obtain the exhaustive list of 337 faithful spherical actions of rank two or less on locally factorial Fano manifolds of dimension four or less. As a preliminary step, we determine the explicit list of spherical homogeneous spaces of…

In this paper, we study the structure of Fano fibrations of varieties admitting an int-amplified endomorphism. We prove that if a normal $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial klt projective variety $X$ has an int-amplified endomorphism, then there exists…

Many classes of projective algebraic varieties can be studied in terms of graded rings. Gorenstein graded rings in small codimension have been studied recently from an algebraic point of view, but the geometric meaning of the resulting…

In this short note, we show that K-semistable Fano manifolds with the smallest alpha invariant are projective spaces. Singular cases are also investigated.

We classify projective terminalizations of quotients of Fano varieties of lines on smooth cubic fourfolds by finite groups of symplectic automorphisms of the underlying cubic. We compute the second Betti number and the fundamental group of…

Let $X$ be a variety with at most terminal $\mathbb Q$-factorial singularities of dimension $n$. We study local contractions $f:X\to Z$ supported by a $\mathbb Q$-Cartier divisor of the type $K_X+ \tau L$, where $L$ is an $f$-ample Cartier…

In this note we study Fano threefolds with noncyclic torsion in the divisor class group. Since they can all be obtained as quotients of Fano threefolds, we get also all examples that can be obtained as quotients of low codimension Fanos in…

We classify three-dimensional nodal Fano varieties that are double covers of smooth quadrics branched over intersections with quartics acted on by finite simple non-abelian groups, and study their rationality.

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a foliation on a projective manifold $X$ with $-K_{\mathcal{F}}$ nef. Assume that either $\mathcal{F}$ is regular, or it has a compact leaf. We prove that there is a locally trivial fibration $f\colon X\to Y$, and a…

In this paper, we prove the rational coefficient case of the global ACC for foliated threefolds. Specifically, we consider any lc foliated log Calabi-Yau triple $(X,\mathcal{F},B)$ of dimension $3$ whose coefficients belong to a set…

We consider classes of noncompact n-folds with trivial canonical bundle, that are linear foliations on nonsingular projective varieties, in general without a projection to the base. We obtain them as first-order deformations of total spaces…

Buchweitz-Greuel-Schreyer conjectured in 1987 a lower bound on the ranks of matrix factorizations over certain local hypersurface rings. We study a graded version of this conjecture, and we show that it implies a novel conjecture concerning…

We prove the generalized Obata theorem on foliations. Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold with a foliation F of codimension $q>1$ and a bundle-like metric. Then $(M, F)$ is transversally isometric to the q-sphere of radius 1/c in…

Let $(S,\mathcal{F})$ be a foliated surface over the complex number of general type, i.e., the Kodaira dimension $\mathrm{Kod}(\mathcal{F})=2$. We study the geometry of the canonical map $\varphi$ of the foliated surface $(S,\mathcal{F})$,…

We introduce a canonical strip hypothesis for Fano varieties. We show that the canonical strip hypothesis for a Fano variety implies that the zeros of the Hilbert polynomial of embedded Calabi--Yau and general type hypersurfaces are located…
