We study a pair consisting of a smooth variety over a field of positive characteristic and a multi-ideal with a real exponent. We prove the finiteness of the set of minimal log discrepancies for a fixed exponent if the dimension is less…

We show that if a divisor centered over a point on a smooth surface computes a minimal log discrepancy, then the divisor also computes a log canonical threshold. To prove the result, we study the asymptotic log canonical threshold of the…

We show that the log canonical threshold polytopes of varieties with log canonical singularities satisfy the ascending chain condition.

We present a procedure for computing the log-canonical threshold of an arbitrary ideal generated by binomials and monomials. The computation of the log canonical threshold is reduced to the problem of computing the minimum of a function,…

In this paper we show that the global (log) canonical threshold of $d$-sheeted covers of the $M$-dimensional projective space of index 1, where $d\geqslant 4$, is equal to one for almost all families (except for a finite set). The varieties…

We compute log canonical thresholds of reduced plane curves of degree $d$ at points of multiplicity $d-1$. As a consequence, we describe all possible values of log canonical threshold that are less than $2/(d-1)$ for reduced plane curves of…

We prove that the log canonical thresholds of a large class of binomial ideals, such as complete intersection binomial ideals and the defining ideals of space monomial curves, are computable by linear programming.

The index of a 3-fold canonical singularity at a crepant centre is at most 6.

In the paper we compute the global log canonical thresholds of the secondary Burniat surfaces with $K^2 = 5$. Furthermore, we establish optimal lower bounds for the log canonical thresholds of members in pluricanonical sublinear systems of…

For a smooth germ of algebraic variety $(X,0)$ and a hypersurface $(f=0)$ in $X$, with an isolated singularity at $0$, Teissier conjectured a lower bound for the Arnold exponent of $f$ in terms of the Arnold exponent of a hyperplane section…

We compute global log canonical thresholds, or equivalently alpha invariants, of birationally rigid orbifold Fano threefolds embedded in weighted projective spaces as codimension two or three. As an important application, we prove that most…

We prove an upper bound on the log canonical threshold of a hypersurface that satisfies a certain power condition and use it to prove several generalizations of Igusa's conjecture on exponential sums, with the log-canonical threshold in the…

Accumulation point of period-tripling bifurcations for complexified Henon map is found. Universal scaling properties of parameter space and Fourier spectrum intrinsic to this critical point is demonstrated.

We show that the limit points of (x,y) for all 3-folds in P^5 with the Chern ratios $x=c_1^3/c_1c_2$, $y=c_3/c_1c_2$ must lie on the line segment $x+y=2$, $1\le x\le 2$. (Note that the determinantal ones already give x+y=2, $1\le x\le…

We generalize the formula for the log canonical threshold(LCT) of plane curves over the complex numbers to arbitrary characteristics. Our proof relies purely on valuation theory, instead of on the theory of $D$-modules.

We say that a set is a multiplicative 3-Sidon set if the equation $s_1s_2s_3=t_1t_2t_3$ does not have a solution consisting of distinct elements taken from this set. In this paper we show that the size of a multiplicative 3-Sidon subset of…

Let Lambda be a set of three integers and let C_Lambda be the space of 2pi-periodic functions with spectrum in Lambda endowed with the maximum modulus norm. We isolate the maximum modulus points x of trigonometric trinomials T in C_Lambda…

A code $\mathcal{C} \subseteq \{0, 1, 2\}^n$ is said to be trifferent with length $n$ when for any three distinct elements of $\mathcal{C}$ there exists a coordinate in which they all differ. Defining $\mathcal{T}(n)$ as the maximum…

On smooth threefolds, the ACC for minimal log discrepancies is equivalent to the boundedness of the log discrepancy of some divisor which computes the minimal log discrepancy. We reduce it to the case when the boundary is the product of a…
