We show that the anti-canonical volume of an $n$-dimensional K\"ahler-Einstein $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano variety is bounded from above by certain invariants of the local singularities, namely $\mathrm{lct}^n\cdot\mathrm{mult}$ for ideals and the…

We show that in any $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein flat family of klt singularities, normalized volumes can only jump down at countably many subvarieties. A quick consequence is that smooth points have the largest normalized volume among all klt…

In this article we study conjectures regarding normalized volume and boundedness of singularities. We focus on singularities with a torus action of complexity 1, threefold singularities, and hypersurface singularities. Given a real value…

Let $(X,\Delta)$ be an $n$-dimensional $\epsilon$-klt log $\QQ$-Fano pair. We give an upper bound for the volume ${\rm Vol}(-(K_X+\Delta))=(-(K_X+\Delta))^n$ when $n=2$ or $n=3$ and $X$ is {$\QQ$-factorial} of $\rho(X)=1$. This bound is…

We give an equivalent definition of the local volume of an isolated singularity Vol_{BdFF}(X,0) given in [BdFF12] in the Q-Gorenstein case and we generalize it to the non-Q-Gorenstein case. We prove that there is a positive lower bound…

We show that in any $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein flat family of klt singularities, normalized volumes are lower semicontinuous with respect to the Zariski topology. A quick consequence is that smooth points have the largest normalized volume…

We show that a set of K-semistable log Fano cone singularities is bounded if and only if their local volumes are bounded away from zero, and their minimal log discrepancies of Koll\'ar components are bounded from above. As corollaries, we…

Let V be a smooth projective 3-fold of general type. Denote by $K^3$, a rational number, the self-intersection of the canonical sheaf of any minimal model of V. One defines $K^3$ as the canonical volume of $V$. Assume $p_g\ge 2$. We show…

We study area-minimizing hypersurfaces in singular ambient manifolds whose tangent cones have nonnegative scalar curvature on their regular parts. We prove that the singular set of the hypersurface has codimension at least 3 in our…

We consider Fano threefolds $V$ with canonical Gorenstein singularities. A sharp bound $-K_V^3\le 72$ of the degree is proved.

We consider Fano threefolds $X$ with canonical Gorenstein singularities. Under additional assumption that $X$ has at least one non-cDV point we prove a sharp bound of the degree: $-K_X^3\le 72$.

In this paper, we study the explicit geometry of threefolds, in particular, Fano varieties. We find an explicitly computable positive integer $N$, such that all but a bounded family of Fano threefolds have $N$-complements. This result has…

Let $V$ be a smooth projective 3-fold of general type. Denote by $K^{3}$, a rational number, the self-intersection of the canonical sheaf of any minimal model of $V$. One defines $K^{3}$ as a canonical volume of $V$. The paper is devoted to…

For a real number $0<\epsilon<1/3$, we show that the anti-canonical volume of an $\epsilon$-klt Fano $3$-fold is at most $3200/\epsilon^4$ and the order $O(1/\epsilon^4)$ is sharp.

We prove that in any fixed dimension, K-semistable log Fano cone singularities whose volumes are bounded from below by a fixed positive number form a bounded set. As a consequence, we show that the set of local volumes of klt singularities…

We construct klt projective varieties with ample canonical class and the smallest known volume. We also find exceptional klt Fano varieties with the smallest known anticanonical volume. We conjecture that our examples have the smallest…

For each natural number n >= 4, we determine the unique lowest volume hyperbolic 3-orbifold whose torsion orders are bounded below by n. This lowest volume orbifold has base space the 3-sphere and singular locus the figure-8 knot, marked n.…

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…

Let $S$ be KLT threefold singularity over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p>5$. We prove that its local \'etale fundamental group is tame and finite. Further, we show that every finite unipotent torsor over a big…

We show that the minimal log discrepancy of any $\mathbb Q$-Gorenstein non-canonical threefold is $\leq\frac{12}{13}$, which is an optimal bound.
