We prove the Yau-Tian-Donaldson's conjecture for any $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano variety that has a log smooth resolution of singularities such that the discrepancies of all exceptional divisors are non-positive. In other words, if such a Fano…

The Morrison-Kawamata cone conjecture predicts that the actions of the automorphism group on the effective nef cone and the pseudo-automorphism group on the effective movable cone of a klt Calabi-Yau pair $(X, \Delta)$ have finite, rational…

By a heuristic argument, we relate two conjectures. One is a version of Manin's conjecture about the distribution of rational points on a Fano variety. We concern specific singular Fano varieties, namely quotients of projective spaces by…

We give an elementary argument to compute the $\alpha$-invariant of this Fano 3-fold, which implies the existence of a Kahler-Einstein metric.

We investigate versions of the Shafarevich conjecture, as proved for curves and abelian varieties by Faltings, for other classes of varieties. We first obtain analogues for certain Fano threefolds. We use these results to prove the…

The 2-Fano varieties, defined by De Jong and Starr, satisfy some higher dimensional analogous properties of Fano varieties. We propose a definition of (weak) $k$-Fano variety and conjecture the polyhedrality of the cone of pseudoeffective…

In this paper, we consider the CM line bundle on the K-moduli space, i.e., the moduli space parametrizing K-polystable Fano varieties. We prove it is ample on any proper subspace parametrizing reduced uniformly K-stable Fano varieties which…

The author introduces a conjecture about Makar-Limanov invariants of affine unique factorization domains over a field of characteristic zero. Then the author finds that the conjecture does not always hold when $\mathbbm{k}$ is not…

We revisit results of Fujino--Sato on complete non-projective $\mathbb Q$-factorial toric varieties and their conjectural factorization by flips. We show that their main results admit short conceptual proofs, avoiding any restriction on the…

In this paper, we prove a Kawamata--Viehweg type vanishing theorem for smooth Fano threefolds, canonical del Pezzo surfaces and del Pezzo fibrations in positive characteristic.

In this paper, we show that the derivative of the genus-1 Virasoro conjecture for Gromov-Witten invariants along the direction of quantum volume element holds for all smooth projective varieties. This result provides new evidence for the…

We give a self-contained and simplified proof of Mukai's classification of prime Fano threefolds of index 1 and genus $g \ge 6$ with at most Gorenstein factorial terminal singularities, and of its extension to higher-dimension.

We prove that Seshadri constants of some ample divisors are bigger than 1 on smooth threefolds whose anticanonical bundle is nef or on Fano varieties of small coindice. The main tools are (some known cases of) the Kawamata's effective…

We prove that Generalized Mukai Conjecture holds for Fano manifolds $X$ of pseudoindex $i_X \ge (\dim X +3)/3$. We also give different proofs of the conjecture for Fano fourfolds and fivefolds.
