A conjecture of Pukhlikov states that a smooth Fano variety of dimension at least four and index one is birationally rigid. We show that a general member of the linear system given by the ample generator of the Picard group of the moduli…

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.

We prove the $K$-polystability of all smooth complex Fano threefolds admitting an effective action of $\text{SL}_2$ but not of a 2-torus or 3-torus. In particular, the existence of K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics on varieties in the families…

We introduce an inductive argument for proving birational superrigidity and K-stability of singular Fano complete intersections of index one, using the same types of information from lower dimensions. In particular, we prove that a…

Let $X_\mathcal{A}$ be the projective toric variety corresponding to a finite set of lattice points $\mathcal{A}$. We show that irreducible components of the Fano scheme $\mathbf{F}_k(X_\mathcal{A})$ parametrizing $k$-dimensional linear…

This paper is devoted to the study of holomorphic distributions of dimension and codimension one on smooth weighted projective complete intersection Fano manifolds threedimensional, with Picard number equal to one. We study the relations…

The delta invariant interprets the criterion for the K-(poly)stability of log terminal Fano varieties. In this paper, we determine the whole local delta invariant for all weak del Pezzo surfaces with the anti-canonical degree $\geq 5$.

Let k be an uncountable algebraically closed field and let Y be a smooth projective k-variety which does not admit a decomposition of the diagonal. We prove that Y is not stably birational to a very general hypersurface of any given degree…

In this paper, we study the K-stability of del Pezzo surfaces with a single quotient singularity whose minimal resolution admits exactly two exceptional curves \(E_1\) and \(E_2\) with \(E_{1}^2=-n\), \(E_{2}^2=-m\) for \(n,m\geq 2\).

The notion of (strongly) asymptotically log Fano varieties was introduced in 2013 by Cheltsov--Rubinstein, who posed the problem of classifying all strongly asymptotically log del Pezzo surfaces with smooth boundary that admit…

We study the question whether rational homogeneous spaces are rigid under Fano deformation. In other words, given any smooth connected family f:X -> Zof Fano manifolds, if one fiber is biholomorphic to a rational homogeneous space S,…

We prove some criteria for uniform K-stability of log Fano pairs. In particular, we show that uniform K-stability is equivalent to $\beta$-invariant having a positive lower bound. Then we study the relation between optimal destabilization…

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 study the local differential geometry of varieties $X^n\subset \Bbb C\Bbb P^{n+a}$ with degenerate secant and tangential varieties. We show that the second fundamental form of a smooth variety with degenerate tangential variety is…

Let $X$ be a Fano manifold. While the properties of the anticanonical divisor $-K_X$ and its multiples have been studied by many authors, the positivity of the tangent bundle $T_X$ is much more elusive. We give a complete characterisation…

In this short note, we study the asymptotic Chow polystability of toric Del Pezzo surfaces appear in the moduli space of K\"ahler-Einstein Fano varieties constructed in [OSS16].

We prove the existence of Kahler-Einstein metric on a K-stable Fano manifold using the recent compactness result on Kahler-Ricci flows. The key ingredient is an algebro-geometric description of the asymptotic behavior of Kahler-Ricci flow…

We prove that on Fano manifolds, the K\"ahler-Ricci flow produces a "most destabilising" degeneration, with respect to a new stability notion related to the H-functional. This answers questions of Chen-Sun-Wang and He. We give two…

We prove that ideal sheaves of lines in a Fano threefold $X$ of Picard rank one and index two are stable objects in the Kuznetsov component $\mathsf{Ku}(X)$, with respect to the stability conditions constructed by Bayer, Lahoz, Macr\`i and…

We show that if a Fano manifold $M$ is K-stable with respect to special degenerations equivariant under a compact group of automorphisms, then $M$ admits a K\"ahler-Einstein metric. This is a strengthening of the solution of the…
