Using techniques from Bridgeland stability, we show the kernel sheaf associated to sufficiently positive Gieseker stable sheaf on a Del Pezzo surface is slope stable. This is the first effective stability result for kernel sheaves…
Let $(X, \Delta)$ be a log Fano pair with standard coefficients endowed with a singular K\"ahler--Einstein metric. We show that the adapted tangent sheaf $\mathcal{T}_{X, \Delta, f}$ and the adapted canonical extension $\mathcal{E}_{X,…
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.
In this paper we study the relative Chow and $K$-stability of toric manifolds in the toric sense. First, we give a criterion for relative $K$-stability and instability of toric Fano manifolds in the toric sense. The reduction of relative…
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.
We show that any $n$-dimensional Fano manifold $X$ with $\alpha(X)=n/(n+1)$ and $n\geq 2$ is K-stable, where $\alpha(X)$ is the alpha invariant of $X$ introduced by Tian. In particular, any such $X$ admits K\"ahler-Einstein metrics and the…
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…
The purpose of this paper is to clarify all of the uniformly relatively Ding stable toric Fano threefolds and fourfolds as well as unstable ones. The key player in our classification result is the Mabuchi constants, which can be calculated…
We propose a conjectural list of Fano manifolds of Picard number $1$ with pseudoeffective normalized tangent bundles, which we prove in various situations by relating it to the complete divisibility conjecture of Russo and Zak on varieties…
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 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…
Extending previous results, we prove that for $n \ge 5$ all hypersurfaces of degree $n+1$ in ${\mathbb P}^{n+1}$ with isolated ordinary double points are birational superrigid and K-stable, hence admit a weak K\"ahler--Einstein metric.
We annnounce a proof of the fact that a K-stable Fano manifold admits a Kahler-Einstein metric and give a brief outline of the proof.
We prove that, for a spherical Fano threefold not in the Mori-Mukai family 2-29, and a weight function associated with the action of the connected center of a Levi subgroup of its automorphism group, weighted K-polystability is equivalent…
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…
K{\"u}chle classified the Fano fourfolds that can be obtained as zero loci of global sections of homogeneous vector bundles on Grassmannians. Surprisingly, his classification exhibits two families of fourfolds with the same discrete…
Let $f\colon X\to Y$ be a surjective morphism of Fano manifolds of Picard number 1 whose VMRTs at a general point are not dual defective. Suppose that the tangent bundle $T_X$ is big. We show that $f$ is an isomorphism unless $Y$ is a…
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…
We study the K-stability of singular Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein singularities whose anticanonical linear system is base-point-free but not very ample.
