We prove that all smooth Fano threefolds with Picard rank 2 and degree 28 are K-polystable, except for some explicit cases which we describe. We also give a classification of the normal bundle of a rational normal quartic curve in a smooth…
We prove that every smooth Fano threefold from the family No 2.8 is K-stable. Such a Fano threefold is a double cover of the blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^3$ at one point branched along an anti-canonical divisor.
The family of smooth Fano 3-folds with Picard rank 1 and anticanonical volume 4 consists of quartic 3-folds and of double covers of the 3-dimensional quadric branched along an octic surface. They can all be parametrised as complete…
We give new proofs of the K-polystability of two smooth Fano threefolds. One of them is a~smooth divisor in $\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^2$ of degree $(1,1,1)$, which is unique up to isomorphism. Another one is the~blow…
We present some applications of the deformation theory of toric Fano varieties to K-(semi/poly)stability of Fano varieties. First, we present two examples of K-polystable toric Fano 3-fold with obstructed deformations. In one case, the…
We show that certain Galois covers of K-semistable Fano varieties are K-stable. We use this to give some new examples of Fano manifolds admitting K\"ahler-Einstein metrics, including hypersurfaces, double solids and threefolds.
In this paper, we investigate K-polystability on smooth complex Fano 4-folds with Lefschetz defect at least 2, focusing on the case of Lefschetz defect 3 and on Casagrande-Druel Fano 4-folds with Lefschetz defect 2. We show that exactly 5…
We prove that all smooth Fano threefolds in the families 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.6 and 2.7 are K-stable, and we also prove that smooth Fano threefolds in the family 2.5 that satisfy one very explicit generality condition are K-stable.
We show that general one-nodal prime Fano threefolds of genus $12$ are K-polystable.
By identifying K-polystable limits in 4 specific deformations families of smooth Fano 3-folds, we complete the classification of one-dimensional components in the K-moduli space of smoothable Fano 3-folds.
We prove the $K$-polystability of all smooth complex Fano threefolds admitting an effective action of $\text{SL}_2$ but not of a 2-torus or 3-torus. In particular, the existence of K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics on varieties in the families…
For Fano varieties, significant progress has been made recently in the study of $K$-stability, while the understanding of the weaker but more algebraic concept of $(-K)$-slope stability remains intricate. For instance, a conjecture…
We study Fano threefolds that can be obtained by blowing up the three-dimensional projective space along a smooth curve of degree six and genus three. We produce many new K-stable examples of such threefolds, and we describe all finite…
Using the Abban-Zhuang theory and the classification of three-dimensional log smooth log Fano pairs due to Maeda, we prove that threefold log Fano pairs $(X, D)$ of Maeda type with reducible boundary $D$ are K-unstable, with four…
We describe the 6-dimensional compact K-moduli space of Fano threefolds in deformation family No 2.18. These Fano threefolds are double covers of $\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^2$ branched along smooth $(2,2)$-surfaces, and…
We establish an algebraic approach to prove the properness of moduli spaces of K-polystable Fano varieties and reduce the problem to a conjecture on destabilizations of K-unstable Fano varieties. Specifically, we prove that if the stability…
Gushel-Mukai manifolds are specific families of $n$-dimensional Fano manifolds of Picard rank $1$ and index $n-2$ where $3\leq n \leq 6$. A Gushel-Mukai $n$-fold is either ordinary, i.e. a hyperquadric section of a quintic Del Pezzo…
We prove that all general smooth Fano threefolds of Picard rank $3$ and degree $14$ are K-stable, where the generality condition is stated explicitly.
A variety is said to satisfy Condition (A) if every finite abelian subgroup of its automorphism group has a fixed point. We show that a smooth Fano 3-fold not satisfying Condition (A) is K-polystable unless it is contained in eight…
We find all K-stable smooth Fano threefolds in the family No. 2.22.
