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…

We prove an analogue of Fujino and Mori's ``bounding the denominators'' in the log canonical bundle formula (see also Prokhorov and Shokurov) for Kawamata log terminal pairs of relative dimension one. As an application we prove that for a…

We show that if f is a nonzero, noninvertible function on a smooth complex variety X and J_f is the Jacobian ideal of f, then lct(f, J_f^2)>1 if and only if the hypersurface defined by f has rational singularities. Moreover, if this is not…

If $(X, \mcF, \D)$ is a projective rank two foliated log canonical triple such that $(X,B)$ is klt for some $0 \leq B \leq \D$, we show that we can run a $(K_\mcF +\Delta)$-MMP and any such MMP terminates with either a minimal model or Mori…

Let X,X_1,X_2,... be independent identically distributed random variables and let h(x,y)=h(y,x) be a measurable function of two variables. It is shown that the bounded law of the iterated logarithm, $\limsup_n (n\log\log n)^{-1}|\sum_{1<=…

We prove that the ACC conjecture for minimal log discrepancies holds for threefolds in $[1-\delta,+\infty)$, where $\delta>0$ only depends on the coefficient set. We also study Reid's general elephant for pairs, and show Shokurov's…

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…

In this paper, we prove the canonical trace ideal trace(omega_A) is an Ulrich ideal for any two-dimensional rational triple point A. Using this, we classify all Ulrich ideals on rational triple points. Moreover, we show that if (A, m) is a…

We generalize the rationality theorem of the accumulation points of log canonical thresholds which was proved by Hacon, M\textsuperscript{c}Kernan, and Xu. Further, we apply the rationality to the ACC problem on the minimal log…

For a locally defined real analytic function, we study the relation between the oscillation index of oscillatory integrals and the real log canonical threshold. The former is always negative, and its absolute value is greater than or equal…

Let $X$ be a $\mathbb Q$-factorial weak Fano $3$-fold with at worst isolated canonical singularities. We show that the $\mathbb Q$-Fano index of $X$ is at most $61$.

In this paper, we study a positive characteristic analogue of the centers of log canonicity of a pair $(R, \Delta)$. We call these analogues centers of $F$-purity. We prove positive characteristic analogues of subadjunction-like results,…

This is a survey of the existing literature, the state of the art, and a few minor new results and open questions regarding the essential dimension of central simple algebras and finite sequences of such algebras over fields whose…

In this paper we calculate genaral n-canonical divisors on smoothable semi-log-terminal singularities in dimension 2, in other words, the full sheaves associated to the double dual of the nth tensor power of the dualizing sheaves of these…

The notion of $p_g$-ideals for normal surface singularities has been proved to be very useful. On the other hand, the core of ideals has been proved to be very important concept and also very mysterious one. However, the computation of the…

Let $L$ be a differential operator with coefficients in $\mathbb{Q}(z)$ of order $n\geq2$ with maximal unipotent monodromy at zero. In this paper we are interested in determining when the canonical coordinate of $L$ belongs to…

We study log canonical models of foliated surfaces of general type. In particular, we show that log canonical models of general type and their minimal partial du Val resolutions are bounded. Moreover, we show the valuative criteria of…

Let $(X/Z,B+A)$ be a $\Q$-factorial dlt pair where $B,A\ge 0$ are $\Q$-divisors and $K_X+B+A\sim_\Q 0/Z$. We prove that any LMMP$/Z$ on $K_X+B$ with scaling of an ample$/Z$ divisor terminates with a good log minimal model or a Mori fibre…

Motivated by the embedding problem of canonical models in small codimension, we extend Severi's double point formula to the case of surfaces with rational double points, and we give more general double point formulae for varieties with…

We derive some local properties of abstract crystals with logarithmic poles over a smooth base in positive characteristic and obtain the existence of the canonical coordinates of certain ordinary crystals. We then apply the results to…
