We give a lower bound for the delta invariant of the fundamental divisor of a quasi-smooth weighted hypersurface. As a consequence, we prove K-stability of a large class of quasi-smooth Fano hypersurfaces of index 1 and of all smooth Fano…

We survey recent results on the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on certain smoothable Fano varieties, focusing on the importance of such metrics in the construction of compact algebraic moduli spaces of K-polystable Fano varieties.…

For every integer $a \geq 2$, we relate the K-stability of hypersurfaces in the weighted projective space $\mathbb{P}(1,1,a,a)$ of degree $2a$ with the GIT stability of binary forms of degree $2a$. Moreover, we prove that such a…

We exhibit an example of obstructed K-polystable Fano 3-fold $X$ such that the K-moduli stack of K-semistable Fano varieties and the K-moduli space of K-polystable Fano varieties have an embedded point at $[X]$.

We describe the K-moduli spaces of weighted hypersurfaces of degree $2(n+3)$ in $\mathbb{P}(1,2,n+2,n+3)$. We show that the K-polystable limits of these weighted hypersurfaces are also weighted hypersurfaces of the same degree in the same…

For a variety $X$, a big $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $L$ and a closed connected subgroup $G \subset \mathrm{Aut}(X, L)$ we define a $G$-invariant version of the $\delta$-threshold. We prove that for a Fano variety $(X, -K_X)$ and a connected…

Let $X \subset \mathbb P(a_0,\ldots,a_n)$ be a quasi-smooth weighted Fano hypersurface of degree $d$ and index $I_X$ such that $a_i |d$ for all $i$, with $a_0 \le \ldots \le a_n$. If $I_X=1$, we show that, under a suitable condition, the…

We give a lower bound of the $\delta$-invariants of ample line bundles in terms of Seshadri constants. As applications, we prove the uniform K-stability of infinitely many families of Fano hypersurfaces of arbitrarily large index, as well…

We prove that on any log Fano pair of dimension $n$ whose stability threshold is less than $\frac{n+1}{n}$, any valuation computing the stability threshold has a finitely generated associated graded ring. Together with earlier works, this…

We investigate the K-stability of certain blow-ups of $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundles over a Fano variety $V$, where the $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundle is the projective compactification of a line bundle $L$ proportional to $-K_V$ and the center of the…

We give conditions for a uniruled variety of dimension at least 2 to be non-solid. This study provides further evidence to a conjecture by Abban and Okada on the solidity of Fano 3-folds. To complement our results we write explicit…

We show that there exists a K-stable smooth Fano threefold of the Picard rank 3, the anti-canonical degree 28 and the third Betti number 2.

This survey article is an accompaniment to the 2025 Summer Research Institute in Algebraic Geometry Bootcamp on K-stability and K-moduli. It is aimed at graduate students and intended to provide the necessary background to begin research on…

In this paper, we prove that any polarized K-stable manifold is CM-stable. This extends what I did for Fano manifolds in my 2012 paper.

We give a simple criterion for slope stability of Fano manifolds $X$ along divisors or smooth subvarieties. As an application, we show that $X$ is slope stable along an ample effective divisor $D\subset X$ unless $X$ is isomorphic to a…

We prove two new results on the K-polystability of Q-Fano varieties based on purely algebro-geometric arguments. The first one says that any K-semistable log Fano cone has a special degeneration to a uniquely determined K-polystable log…

For any flat projective family $(\mX,\mL)\rightarrow C$ such that the generic fibre $\mX_\eta$ is a klt Q-Fano variety and $\mL|_{\mX_\eta}\sim_{Q}-K_{X_{\eta}}$, we use the techniques from the minimal model program (MMP) to modify the…

Let $S$ be a smooth projective variety and $\Delta$ a simple normal crossing $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor with coefficients in $(0,1]$. For any ample $\mathbb{Q}$-line bundle $L$ over $S$, we denote by $\mathscr{E}(L)$ the extension sheaf of the…

We construct first examples of Fano varieties with torsion in their third cohomology group. The examples are constructed as double covers of linear sections of rank loci of symmetric matrices, and can be seen as higher-dimensional analogues…

A complex smooth prime Fano threefold $X$ of genus $9$ is related via projective duality to a quartic plane curve $\Gamma$. We use this setup to study the restriction of rank $2$ stable sheaves with prescribed Chern classes on $X$ to an…
