We classify all complete non-singular toric varieties with Picard number four via a combinatorial framework based on fanlike simplicial spheres and characteristic maps. This classification yields $59$ fanlike seeds with Picard number four,…

We prove that the embedding of a $GV$-subscheme in a principally polarized abelian variety does not factor through any nontrivial isogeny. As an application, we present a new proof of a theorem of Clemens--Griffiths identifying the…

We present a preliminary investigation of algebraic surfaces that have non-planar degenerations, along with their Galois covers and fundamental groups. Specifically, we investigate the tetrahedron and the double tetrahedron. The resulting…

We determine restrictions on the singularity content of a Fano polygon, or equivalently of certain orbifold del Pezzo surfaces. We establish bounds on the maximum number of 1/R(1,1) singularities in the basket of residual singularities. In…

We announce a factorization result for equivariant birational morphisms between toric 4-folds whose source is Fano: such a morphism is always a composite of blow-ups along smooth invariant centers. Moreover, we show with a counterexample…

We prove that the Fano variety of lines of a cuspidal cyclic cubic fourfold is a symplectic variety with transversal A2-singularities and we study the properties of the nonsymplectic order three automorphism induced by the covering…

One can embed arbitrarily many disjoint, non-parallel, non-boundary parallel, incompressible surfaces in any three manifold with at least one boundary component of genus two or greater [4]. This paper proves the contrasting, but not…

For an arbitrary smooth n-dimensional Fano variety $X$ we introduce the notion of a small toric degeneration. Using small toric degenerations of Fano n-folds $X$, we propose a general method for constructing mirrors of Calabi-Yau complete…

We analyse the local structure of the K-moduli space of Fano varieties at a toric singular K-polystable Fano 3-fold, which deforms to smooth Fano 3-folds with anticanonical volume 28 and Picard rank 4. In particular, by constructing an…

Firstly, we see that the bases of the miniversal deformations of isolated $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein toric singularities are quite restricted. In particular, we classify the analytic germs of embedding dimension $\leq 2$ which are the bases of…

The moduli space of (1,7)-polarized abelian surfaces with a level structure was shown by Manolache and Schreyer to be rational with compactification a Fano 3-fold of genus 12 which is also a compactification of the variety of powersum…

We prove that up to automorphisms a line admits a unique embedding into the regular part of of a simplicial toric variety of dimension n>=4 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero which is smooth in codimension 2.

We present some applications of the deformation theory of toric Fano varieties to K-(semi/poly)stability of Fano varieties. First, we present two examples of K-polystable toric Fano 3-fold with obstructed deformations. In one case, the…

In this paper, we classify smooth toric Fano 5-folds of index 2. There exist exactly 10 smooth toric Fano 5-folds of index 2 up to isomorphisms.

An inductive approach to classifying toric Fano varieties is given. As an application of this technique, we present a classification of the toric Fano threefolds with at worst canonical singularities. Up to isomorphism, there are 674,688…

We determine the complete list of anticanonically embedded quasi smooth log Fano 3-folds in weighted projective 4-spaces. This implies that the Reid-Fletcher list of 95 types of anticanonically embedded quasi smooth terminal Fano threefolds…

We prove the existence of a one-parameter family of nondisplaceable Lagrangian tori near a linear chain of Lagrangian 2-spheres in a symplectic 4-manifold. When the symplectic structure is rational we prove that the deformed Floer…

We study the possibility of realizing exotic smooth structures on punctured simply connected $4$-manifolds as leaves of a codimension one foliation on a compact manifold. In particular, we show the existence of uncountably many smooth open…

We introduce a concept of minimality for Fano polygons. We show that, up to mutation, there are only finitely many Fano polygons with given singularity content, and give an algorithm to determine the mutation-equivalence classes of such…

It is well known that there are totally 130 deformation families of quasi-smooth terminal weighted hypersurface Fano threefolds and all members belonging to 95 families of Fano indices one are birationally rigid. Among remaining $35$…
