We prove that for a locally stable family of klt singularities with constant local volume, the ideal sequences of the minimizing valuations for the normalized volume function form a family of ideals with flat cosupport, which induces a…

We prove a generalization of the algebraic version of Tian conjecture. Precisely, for any smooth strictly increasing function $g:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}_{>0}$ with ${\rm log}\circ g$ convex, we define the $\mathbf{H}^g$-invariant on a Fano…

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 prove that K-polystable degenerations of Q-Fano varieties are unique. Furthermore, we show that the moduli stack of K-stable Q-Fano varieties is separated. Together with [Jia17,BL18], the latter result yields a separated Deligne-Mumford…

We show that for a K-unstable Fano variety, any divisorial valuation computing its stability threshold induces a non-trivial special test configuration preserving the stability threshold. When such a divisorial valuation exists, we show…

Given any field $k$ (not necessarily perfect), we study the smoothing of a semistable Fano variety over $k$. In characteristic 0, the reduced semistable Fano degenerate fibers of Mori fibrations are classified. In positive characteristic,…

In this paper we investigate the degrees of irrationality of degenerations of $\epsilon$-lc Fano varieties of arbitrary dimensions. We show that given a generically $\epsilon$-lc klt Fano fibration $X\to Z$ of dimension $d$ over a smooth…

In this paper, we study the K-stability of polarized spherical varieties. After reduction, it can be treated as a variational problem of the reduced functional of the Futaki invariant on the associated moment polytope. With the convexity…

We propose a finite generation conjecture for the valuation which computes the stability threshold of a log Fano pair. We also initiate a degeneration strategy of attacking the conjecture.

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…

Consider a family of Fano varieties $\pi: X \longrightarrow B\ni o$ over a curve germ with a smooth total space $X$. Assume that the generic fiber is smooth and the special fiber $F=\pi^{-1}(o)$ has simple normal crossings. Then $F$ is…

We prove a decomposition formula of logarithmic Gromov-Witten invariants in a degeneration setting. A one-parameter log smooth family X->B with singular fibre over b_0 \in B yields a family M(X/B,\beta) -> B of moduli stacks of stable…

We study the birational boundedness of special fibers of log Calabi-Yau fibrations and Fano fibrations. We show that for a locally stable family of Fano varieties or polarised log Calabi-Yau pairs over a curve, if the general fiber…

We prove that every birationally superrigid Fano variety whose alpha invariant is greater than (resp. no smaller than) $\frac{1}{2}$ is K-stable (resp. K-semistable). We also prove that the alpha invariant of a birationally superrigid Fano…

We revisit the recent theory of Sun-Zhang on general Fano fibration (germs) which emerged from the study of non-compact Kahler-Ricci soliton metrics, primarily from an algebro-geometric perspective. In addition to reviewing the existing…

We provide a sufficient condition for polarisations of Fano varieties to be K-stable in terms of Tian's alpha invariant, which uses the log canonical threshold to measure singularities of divisors in the linear system associated to the…

We introduce a notion of K-stability for adjoint foliated structures via test configurations and the foliated Donaldson-Futaki invariant. We prove reduction to special test configurations for adjoint Fano foliated structures by showing that…

We explicitly determine the optimal degenerations of Fano threefolds $X$ in family No 2.23 of Mori-Mukai's list as predicted by the Hamilton-Tian conjecture. More precisely, we find a special degeneration $(\mathcal{X}, \xi_0)$ of $X$ such…

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…

Mirror symmetry for a semi-stable degeneration of a Calabi-Yau manifold was first investigated by Doran-Harder-Thompson when the degeneration fiber is a union of two (quasi)-Fano manifolds. They propose a topological construction of a…
