Let k_0 be a field of characteristic 0, k its algebraic closure, G a connected reductive group defined over k. Let H\subset G be a spherical subgroup. We assume that k_0 is a large field, for example, k_0 is either the field R of real…

We show that the number of deformation types of canonically polarized manifolds over an arbitrary variety with proper singular locus is finite, and that this number is uniformly bounded in any finite type family of base varieties. As a…

For each arbitrary finite group $G$, we consider a suitable notion of Gromov Hausdorff distance between compact $G$ metric spaces and derive lower bounds based on equivariant topology methods. As applications, we prove equivariant rigidity…

A horospherical variety is a normal algebraic variety where a reductive algebraic group acts with an open orbit which is a torus bundle over a flag variety. For example, toric varieties and flag varieties are horospherical. In this paper,…

We prove the stable degeneration conjecture of log Fano fibration germs formulated by Sun-Zhang. Precisely, we introduce the $\mathbf{H}$-invariant for filtrations over a log Fano fibration germ, and show that there exists a unique…

We classify toric Fano threefolds having at worst terminal singularities such that a rank of a $G$-invariant part of a class group equals one, where $G$ is a group acting on the variety by automorphisms.

We compute global log canonical thresholds of certain birationally bi-rigid Fano 3-folds embedded in weighted projective spaces as complete intersections of codimension 2 and prove that they admit an orbifold K\"{a}hler-Einstein metric and…

We show that the moduli space of elliptic curves of minimal degree in a general Fano variety of lines of a cubic fourfold is a non-singular curve of genus $631$. The curve admits a natural involution with connected quotient. We find that…

This paper is devoted to the study of various aspects of deformations of log pairs, especially in connection to questions related to the invariance of singularities and log plurigenera. In particular, using recent results from the minimal…

We classify three-dimensional Fano varieties with canonical Gorenstein singularities of degree bigger than 64.

We prove that a Fano variety (with arbitrary singularities) of dimension $n$ in positive characteristic is isomorphic to $\mathbb{P}^n$ if the Seshadri constant of the anti-canonical divisor at some smooth point is greater than $n$ and…

Equivariant "Ham Sandwich" Theorems are obtained for the finite subgroups G of the unit spheres S(F) in the classical algebras F = R, C, and H. Given any n F-valued mass distributions on F^n, it is shown that there exists a G-equivariant…

A subshift on a group G is a closed, G-invariant subset of A^G, for some finite set A. It is said to be a subshift of finite type (SFT) if it is defined by a finite collection of 'forbidden patterns', to be strongly aperiodic if all point…

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 stable spherical variety which includes the spherical varieties under a reductive group $G$ and their flat equivariant degenerations. Given any projective space $\bP$ where $G$ acts linearly, we construct a moduli…
