We investigate versions of the Shafarevich conjecture, as proved for curves and abelian varieties by Faltings, for other classes of varieties. We first obtain analogues for certain Fano threefolds. We use these results to prove the…

In this paper we study abelian and metabelian quotients of braid groups on oriented surfaces with boundary components. We provide group presentations and we prove rigidity results for these quotients arising from exact sequences related to…

We construct a family of Fano fourfolds with the derived category of coherent sheaves of a general Enriques surface as semiorthogonal component. This improves a result of Kuznetsov, lowering the Fano dimension of a general Enriques surface…

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 study the spaces of rational curves on Fano threefolds with Gorenstein terminal singularities. We generalize the results regarding Geometric Manin's Conjecture for smooth Fano threefolds, including the classification of subvarieties with…

We classify Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein singularities whose anticanonical linear system has no base points but does not give an embedding, and we classify anticanonically embedded Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein…

In this paper we study the algebraic ranks of foliations on $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial normal projective varieties. We start by establishing a Kobayashi-Ochiai's theorem for Fano foliations in terms of algebraic rank. We then investigate the…

We classify Q-Fano threefolds of Fano index > 2 and big degree.

In this paper the three-dimensional divisorial contractions $f\colon Y\to (X\ni P)$ are classified provided that $\Exc f=E$ is an irreducible divisor, $f(E)=P$, the variety $Y$ has canonical singularities and $(X\ni P)$ is a toric terminal…

Below we construct non-cyclic and torsion-free abelian quotients for subgroups of braid groups generated by cube powers of half-twists. In the case of 3 and 4 strands we compute the abelianization of these groups. Also, we get…

The reduced divisor class group of a normal Cohen--Macaulay graded domain together with its torsion number is introduced. They are studied in detail especially for normal affine semigroup rings.

We exhibit several families of Fano threefolds with a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen-Vial. As a consequence, a certain tautological subring of the Chow ring of powers of these threefolds injects into…

We prove that some subquotient categories of one-sided triangulated categories are abelian. This unifies a result by Iyama-Yoshino in the case of triangulated categories and a result by Demonet-Liu in the case of exact categories.

We consider Tuenter polynomials as linear combinations of descending factorials and show that coefficients of these linear combinations are expressed via a Catalan triangle of numbers. We also describe a triangle of coefficients in terms of…

We completely classify the Q-factorial terminal toric Fano three-folds such that the sum of the squared torus invariant prime divisors is non-negative.

In this paper, we provide examples of Sarkisov links of type II between complex projective Fano threefolds $X$ with $\rho(X) = 1$. To show examples of these links, we study smooth weak Fano threefolds with extremal rays of type $E$. We…
