We find Fano threefolds $X$ admitting K\"ahler-Ricci solitons (KRS) with non-trivial moduli, which are $\mathbb{T}$-varieties of complexity two. More precisely, we show that the weighted K-stability of $(X,\xi_0)$ (where $\xi_0$ is the…

Suppose that $X$ is a projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Further suppose that $L$ is an ample (or more generally in some sense positive) divisor. We study a natural linear system in $|K_X + L|$.…

We show that the set of families of smooth well-formed Fano weighted complete intersections admits a natural partition with respect to the variance $\mathrm{var}(X) = \mathrm{coind}(X) - \mathrm{codim}(X)$. Moreover, we obtain the…

If $(X, \mcF, \D)$ is a projective rank two foliated log canonical triple such that $(X,B)$ is klt for some $0 \leq B \leq \D$, we show that we can run a $(K_\mcF +\Delta)$-MMP and any such MMP terminates with either a minimal model or Mori…

We prove the existence of asymptotically cylindrical (ACyl) Calabi-Yau 3-folds starting with (almost) any deformation family of smooth weak Fano 3-folds. This allow us to exhibit hundreds of thousands of new ACyl Calabi-Yau 3-folds;…

The anticanonical complex generalizes the Fano polytope from toric geometry and has been used to study Fano varieties with torus action so far. We work out the case of complete intersections in toric varieties defined by non-degenerate…

We give some bounds on the anticanonical degrees of Fano varieties with Picard number 1 and mild singularities, extending results of Koll\'ar et al. from the early 90's and improving them even in the smooth case. The proof is based on a…

In this article we establish the following results: Let $(X, B)$ be a dlt pair, where $X$ is a $\mathbb Q$-factorial K\"ahler $4$-fold -- (i) if $X$ is compact and $K_X+B\sim_{\mathbb Q} D\geq 0$ for some effective $\mathbb Q$-divisor, then…

We show that klt Fano varieties and certain lc Fano varieties contain free higher-genus curves in their smooth loci. Our methods also allow us to find free curves on varieties in positive characteristic and on quasiprojective varieties,…

In this paper we study the algebraic ranks of foliations on $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial normal projective varieties. We start by establishing a Kobayashi-Ochiai's theorem for Fano foliations in terms of algebraic rank. We then investigate the…

We settle the problem of K-stability of quasi-smooth Fano 3-fold hypersurfaces with Fano index 1 by providing lower bounds for their delta invariants. We use the method introduced by Abban and Zhuang for computing lower bounds of delta…

We prove that the anti-canonical volume of an $n$-dimensional K-semistable Fano manifold that is not $\mathbb{P}^n$ is at most $2n^n$. Moreover, the volume is equal to $2n^n$ if and only if $X\cong \mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ or…

One of the central aims of the Minimal Model Program is to show that a projective log canonical pair $(X,\Delta)$ with $K_X+\Delta$ pseudoeffective has a good model, i.e.\ a minimal model $(Y,\Delta_Y)$ such that $K_Y+\Delta_Y$ is…

We show the termination of any log-minimal model program for a pair $(X,\Delta)$ of a symplectic manifold $X$ and an effective $\mathbb R$-divisor $\Delta$.

We show that if an ample line bundle L on a nonsingular toric 3-fold satisfies h^0(L+2K)=0, then L is normally generated. As an application, we show that the anti-canonical divisor on a nonsingular toric Fano 4-fold is normally generated.

We show that for a weak $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano threefold $X$ of Picard rank two ($\mathbb{Q}$-factorial with at worst terminal singularities), the anticanonical volume satisfies $-K_X^3\leq72$ except in one case, and the equality holds only if…

Given a Fano variety $Y$ and a simple normal crossings divisor $D\subseteq Y$ which is anti-canonical, we prove a formula relating counts of discs with boundary on a Lagrangian $L\subseteq Y\backslash D$ to counts of rational curves in $Y$,…

For $n\geq 4$, let $X$ be a complex smooth Fano $n$-fold whose minimal anticanonical degree of non-free rational curves on $X$ is at least $n-2$. We classify extremal contractions of such varieties. As an application, we obtain a…

We study the K-stability of $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano spherical varieties using compatible divisors. More precisely, if the $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano variety, with a reductive group action, has an open Borel subgroup orbit, then there is a unique…

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…
