Symmetric varieties are normal equivarient open embeddings of symmetric homogeneous spaces, and they are interesting examples of spherical varieties. We prove that all smooth Fano symmetric varieties with Picard number one admit…
The Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture for smooth complex varieties states that algebraic and topological K-theory with finite coefficients become isomorphic in high degrees. We define the "Lichtenbaum-Quillen dimension" of a variety in terms…
We apply a recent theorem of Li and the first author to give some criteria for the K-stability of Fano varieties in terms of anticanonical Q-divisors. First, we propose a condition in terms of certain anticanonical Q-divisors of given Fano…
Let $P$ be a simplicial smooth Fano polytope. We provide a concrete unimodular triangulation of $P$. We prove that the delta-vector of a simplicial smooth Fano polytope is unimodal and we give upper and lower bound for the volume of…
The K-moduli theory provides a different compactification of moduli spaces of curves. As a general genus six curve can be canonically embedded into the smooth quintic del Pezzo surface, we study in this paper the K-moduli spaces…
We define instanton sheaves of higher rank on smooth Fano threefolds X of Picard rank one and show that their topological classification depends on two integers, namely the rank n (or the half of it, if the Fano index of X is odd) and the…
If $X\subset\operatorname{Gr}(2,6)$ is the Fano variety of lines of a smooth cubic fourfold, then we show that the restriction to $X$ of any Schur functor of the tautological quotient bundle is modular and slope polystable. Moreover it is…
Let X be a Fano manifold. G.Tian proves that if X admits a Kaehler-Einstein metric, then it satisfies two different stability conditions: one involving the Futaki invariant of a special degeneration of X, the other Hilbert-Mumford-stability…
Let X be a smooth, complex Fano variety, and delta(X) its Lefschetz defect. It is known that if delta(X) is at least 4, then X is isomorphic to a product SxT, where dim T=dim X-2. In this paper we prove a structure theorem for the case…
We study K-stability of products of K-stable $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties.
It is conjectured that to test the K-polystability of a polarised variety it is enough to consider test-configurations which are equivariant with respect to a torus in the automorphism group. We prove partial results towards this…
We exhibit several families of Fano threefolds with a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen-Vial. As a consequence, a certain tautological subring of the Chow ring of powers of these threefolds injects into…
We prove that a Fano variety (with arbitrary singularities) of dimension $n$ in positive characteristic is isomorphic to $\mathbb{P}^n$ if the Seshadri constant of the anti-canonical divisor at some smooth point is greater than $n$ and…
In this article, a sequel to "Global Frobenius Liftability I" (math:1708:03777v2), we continue the development of a comprehensive theory of Frobenius liftings modulo $p^2$. We study compatibility of divisors and closed subschemes with…
We study Fano 3-folds with Fano index 2: that is, 3-folds X with rank Pic(X) = 1, Q-factorial terminal singularities and -K_X = 2A for an ample Weil divisor A. We give a first classification of all possible Hilbert series of such polarised…
We study growth of absolute and homological $k$-dimensional systoles of arithmetic $n$-manifolds along congruence coverings. Our main interest is in the growth of systoles of manifolds whose real rank $r > 1$. We observe, in particular,…
In this article, we introduce a new approach to show the existence and smoothing of simple normal crossing varieties in a given projective space. Our approach relates the above to the existence of nowhere reduced schemes called ribbons and…
We discuss birational properties of Mukai varieties, i.e., of higher-dimensional analogues of prime Fano threefolds of genus $g \in \{7,8,9,10\}$ over an arbitrary field $\mathsf{k}$ of zero characteristic. In the case of dimension $n \ge…
In this paper, we prove that a Gorenstein toric Fano variety $(X, -K_{X})$ is asymptotically Chow semistable then it is Ding polystable with respect to toric test configurations (Theorem 1.3). This extends the known result obtained by…
In the present paper we discuss stability of the tanget bundle of a Fano n-fold of index >= n-2 and b_2=1. For example, we prove that all Fano 4-folds with b_2=1 have stable tangent bundle. For this purpose we prove some vanishing theorems…
