We prove that on any log Fano pair of dimension $n$ whose stability threshold is less than $\frac{n+1}{n}$, any valuation computing the stability threshold has a finitely generated associated graded ring. Together with earlier works, this…

In the algebraic theory of K-stability, one of the most challenging problems is to show the graded algebra associated with certain higher rank quasi-monomial valuations are finitely generated. In the global case of Fano varieties and local…

We formulate a conjecture on the number of integral points of bounded height on log Fano varieties in analogy with Manin's conjecture on the number of rational points of bounded height on Fano varieties. We also give a prediction for the…

We show that for a K-unstable Fano variety, any divisorial valuation computing its stability threshold induces a non-trivial special test configuration preserving the stability threshold. When such a divisorial valuation exists, we show…

We develop a theory of multi-stage degenerations of toric varieties over finite rank valuation rings, extending the Mumford--Gubler theory in rank one. Such degenerations are constructed from fan-like structures over totally ordered abelian…

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 discuss the relationship among various conjectures in the minimal model theory including the finite generation conjecture of the log canonical rings and the abundance conjecture. In particular, we show that the finite generation…

In this paper, we prove the existence portion of the Bertram-Feinberg-Mukai Conjecture for an infinite family of new cases using degeneration technique. This not only leads to a substantial improvement of known results but also develops…

We investigate the variation of log canonical thresholds in (graded) linear systems. For toric log Fano varieties, we give a sharp lower bound for log canonical thresholds of the anticanonical members in terms of the global minimal log…

It was conjectured by Tian that the global log canonical threshold (known as the $\alpha$-invariant) is equal to the level $k$ log canonical threshold (known as the $\alpha_k$-invariant) for all sufficiently large $k$. A weaker folklore…

We prove the finite generation of canonical rings of projective variety of general type defined over complex numbers.

In this paper, we consider sums of values of degenerate falling factorials and give a probabilistic proof of a recurrence relation for them. This may be viewed as a degenerate version of the recent probabilistic proofs on sums of powers of…

A conjecture is given that, if true, could lead to an algorithm for computing definite sums of rational functions.

We study the Picard rank of smooth toric Fano varieties possessing families of minimal rational curves of given degree. We discuss variants of a conjecture of Chen-Fu-Hwang and prove a version of their statement that recovers the original…

The generating series of descendent invariants of stable pairs on 3-folds is conjectured to be rational and to satisfy a $q\leftrightarrow q^{-1}$ symmetry. We prove this conjecture for Fano 3-folds. We utilize the same path of stability…

We define the relative stability threshold of a family of Fano varieties over a DVR and show that it is computed by a divisorial valuation. In the case when the special fiber is K-unstable, but the generic fiber is K-semistable, we use the…

This is meant to be a survey article for the Cubo Journal. We discuss the existence and number of rational points over a finite field, the Hodge type over the complex numbers, and the motivic conjectures which are controlling those…

We study log canonical thresholds (also called global log canonical threshold or $\alpha$-invariant) of $\mathbb{R}$-linear systems. We prove existence of positive lower bounds in different settings, in particular, proving a conjecture of…

We prove the finite generation of the adjoint ring for $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial log surfaces over any algebraically closed field.

Let $G$ be a finitely generated solvable-by-finite linear group. We present an algorithm to compute the torsion-free rank of $G$ and a bound on the Pr\"{u}fer rank of $G$. This yields in turn an algorithm to decide whether a finitely…
