Drawing on the theory of Minimal Model Program singularities for foliations, we define relative canonical and log-canonical singularities for algebraic stacks with finite generic stabilisers. We show that if a point has log-canonical…
As is well known, the "usual discrepancy" is defined for a normal Q-Gorenstein variety. By using this discrepancy we can define a canonical singularity and a log canonical singularity. In the same way, by using a new notion, Mather-Jacobian…
We prove that the cohomology sheaves of the relative dualizing complex of a flat family of varieties with semi-log-canonical or Du Bois singularities are flat and commute with base change. This is a local version of our earlier similar…
Normal affine algebraic varieties in characteristic 0 are uniquely determined (up to isomorphism) by the Lie algebra of derivations of their coordinate ring. This is not true without the hypothesis of normality. But, we show that (in…
We propose a method to compute a desingularization of a normal affine variety X endowed with a torus action in terms of a combinatorial description of such a variety due to Altmann and Hausen. This desingularization allows us to study the…
Let $(X, \Delta)/U$ be klt pairs and $Q$ be a convex set of divisors. Assuming that the relative Kodaira dimensions are non-negative, then there are only finitely many log canonical models when the boundary divisors varying in a relatively…
We introduce a lifting property for local cohomology, which leads to a unified treatment of the dualizing complex for flat morphisms with semi-log-canonical, Du Bois or F-pure fibers. As a consequence we obtain that, in all 3 cases, the…
Given a logarithmic $1$-form on the snc locus of a log canonical surface pair $(X, D)$ over a perfect field of characteristic $p \ge 7$, we show that it extends with at worst logarithmic poles to any resolution of singularities. We also…
We define a class of singularity on arbitrary pairs of a normal variety and an effective $\mathbb{R}$-divisor on it, which we call pseudo-lc in this paper. This is a generalization of the usual lc singularity of pairs and log canonical…
We give a precise formulation of the modularity principle for the log canonical models of $\bar{M}_g$. Assuming the modularity principle holds, we develop and compare two methods for determining the critical alpha-values at which a…
In this article, we describe the structure of codimension one foliations with canonical singularities and numerically trivial canonical class on varieties with terminal singularities, extending a result of Loray, Pereira and Touzet to this…
Stable surfaces and their log analogues are the type of varieties naturally occuring as boundary points in moduli spaces. We extend classical results of Kodaira and Bombieri to this more general setting: if $(X,\Delta)$ is a stable log…
Recent work ([18], [1]) has produced a complete list of weighted homogeneous surface singularities admitting smoothings whose Milnor fibre has only trivial rational homology (a "rational homology disk"). Though these special singularities…
A reduced divisor on a nonsingular variety defines the sheaf of logarithmic 1-forms. We introduce a certain coherent sheaf whose double dual coincides with this sheaf. It has some nice properties, for example, the residue exact sequence…
It is well known that the Grauert-Riemenschneider canonical sheaf $\mathcal{K}_X$ of holomorphic square-integrable $n$-forms is a central tool in $L^2$-theory for the $\overline\partial$-operator on a singular complex space $X$ of pure…
We introduce higher $F$-rationality generalising $F$-rationality. We prove that a normal variety over a field of characteristic zero is $m$-rational if and only if it is $m$-$F$-rational after reduction modulo a sufficiently large prime…
We prove semi-rationalification and semi-log-canonicalization for Gorenstein demi-normal surfaces. That is, given a Gorenstein demi-normal surface X with semi-rational (respectively, semi-log canonical) singularities in an open set U with…
The quotient variety associated to a permutation representation of a finite group has only canonical singularities in arbitrary characteristic. Moreover, the log pair associated to such a representation is Kawamata log terminal except in…
We define a notion of grading of a monoid T in a monoidal category C, relative to a class of morphisms M (which provide a notion of M-subobject). We show that, under reasonable conditions (including that M forms a factorization system),…
We study the problem of uniformizing quasi-projective varieties with logcanonical compactifications. More precisely, given a complex projective variety X with log-canonical singularities, we give criteria for X to be isomorphic to a…
