We prove a conjecture of Batryev which states that the family of all Fano varieties with kawamata log terminal singularities and fixed index, forms a bounded family.
We investigate birational boundedness of Fano varieties and Fano fibrations. We establish an inductive step towards birational boundedness of Fano fibrations via conjectures related to boundedness of Fano varieties and Fano fibrations. As corollaries, we provide approaches towards birational boundedness and boundedness of anti-canonical volumes of varieties of $ε$-Fano type. Furthermore, we show birational boundedness of $3$-folds of $ε$-Fano type.
We show boundedness of $3$-folds of $ε$-Fano type with Mori fibration structures. The proof is based on the birational boundedness result in our previous work arXiv:1509.08722 combining with arguments in Kawamata \cite{K} and Kollár--Miyaoka--Mori--Takagi \cite{KMMT}.
We prove Weak Borisov--Alexeev--Borisov Conjecture in dimension three which states that the anti-canonical volume of an $ε$-klt log Fano pair of dimension three is bounded from above.
Given $ε>0$, we show that over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>5$, the anticanonical volume of a Fano threefold $X$ (with arbitrary singularities) whose anticanonical divisor has Seshadri constant $ε(-K_X,x)>2+ε$ at some smooth point $x\in X$ is bounded from above.
We classify some special classes of non-rational Fano threefolds with terminal singularities. In particular, all such hyperelliptic and trigonal varieties are found.
We show that fixed dimensional klt weak Fano pairs with alpha-invariants and volumes bounded away from $0$ and the coefficients of the boundaries belong to the set of hyperstandard multiplicities $Φ(\mathscr{R})$ associated to a fixed finite set $\mathscr{R}$ form a bounded family. We also show $α(X,B)^{d-1}\mathrm{vol}(-(K_X+B))$ are bounded from above for all klt weak Fano pairs $(X,B)$ of a fixed dimension $d$.
This survey paper reports on work of Birkar, who confirmed a long-standing conjecture of Alexeev and Borisov-Borisov: Fano varieties with mild singularities form a bounded family once their dimension is fixed. Following Prokhorov-Shramov, we explain how this boundedness result implies that birational automorphism groups of projective spaces satisfy the Jordan property, answering a question of Serre in the positive.
We show the existence of $(ε,n)$-complements for $(ε,\Rr)$-complementary projective generalized pairs of Fano type $(X,B+M)$ when either the coefficients of $B$ and $μ_j$ belong to a finite set or the coefficients of $B$ belong to a DCC set and $M'\equiv 0$, where $M'=\sumμ_jM_j'$ and $M_j'$ are b-Cartier nef divisors.
We classify nonrational Fano threefolds $X$ with terminal Gorenstein singularities such that $\mathrm{\rk}\, \mathrm{\Pic}(X)=1$, $(-K_X)^3\ge 8$, and $\mathrm{\rk}\, \mathrm{\Cl}(X)\le 2$.
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.
We continue the classification of terminal Fano threefolds with an effective two-torus action. In earlier work we settled the Q-factorial case with Picard number one. Here we treat the larger class of varieties that do not admit any contraction of a prime divisor; these are called combinatorially minimal.
In this paper, we prove various results on boundedness and singularities of Fano fibrations and of Fano type fibrations. A Fano fibration is a projective morphism $X\to Z$ of algebraic varieties with connected fibres such that $X$ is Fano over $Z$, that is, $X$ has "good" singularities and $-K_X$ is ample over $Z$. A Fano type fibration is similarly defined where $X$ is assumed to be close to being Fano over $Z$. This class includes many central ingredients of birational geometry such as Fano varieties, Mori fibre spaces, flipping and divisorial contractions, crepant models, germs of singulari…
In this paper, we generalise the theory of complements to log canonical log fano varieties and prove boundedness of complements for them in dimension less than or equal to 3. We also prove some boundedness results for the canonical index of sdlt log Calabi-Yau varieties in dimension 2.
We study log canonical thresholds (also called global log canonical threshold or $α$-invariant) of $\mathbb{R}$-linear systems. We prove existence of positive lower bounds in different settings, in particular, proving a conjecture of Ambro. We then show that the Borisov-Alexeev-Borisov conjecture holds, that is, given a natural number $d$ and a positive real number $ε$, the set of Fano varieties of dimension $d$ with $ε$-log canonical singularities forms a bounded family. This implies that birational automorphism groups of rationally connected varieties are Jordan which in particular answers a…
Let $X$ be a Gorenstein canonical Fano variety of coindex $4$ and dimension $n$ with $H$ fundamental divisor. Assume $h^0(X, H) \geq n -2$. We prove that a general element of the linear system $|mH|$ has at worst canonical singularities for any integer $m \geq 1$. When $X$ has terminal singularities and $n \geq 5$, we show that a general element of $|mH|$ has at worst terminal singularities for any integer $m \geq 1$. When $n=4$, we give an example of Gorenstein terminal Fano fourfold $X$ such that a general element of $|H|$ does not have terminal singularities.
In this article we prove the following version of the Weak-BAB conjecture for $3$-folds in char $p>5$: Fix a DCC set $I\subset [0, 1)$ and an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>5$. Let $\mathfrak{D}$ be a collection of klt pairs $(X, Δ)$ satisfying the following properties: (1) $X$ is a projective $3$-fold, (2) $Δ$ is an $\mathbb{R}$-divisor with coefficients in $I$, (3) $K_X+Δ\equiv 0$, and (4) $-K_X$ is ample. Then the set $\{\mbox{vol}_X(-K_X) \ | \ (X, Δ)\in\mathfrak{D}\mbox{ for some }Δ\}$ is bounded from above.
We study Fano threefolds with~terminal singularities admitting a "minimal" action of a finite group. We prove that under certain additional assumptions such a variety does not contain planes. We also obtain an upper bounds of the number of singular points of certain Fano threefolds with~terminal factorial singularities.
We show that $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties of fixed dimension with anti-canonical degrees and alpha-invariants bounded from below form a bounded family. As a corollary, K-semistable $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties of fixed dimension with anti-canonical degrees bounded from below form a bounded family.

设X是一个具有终端奇点的射影簇,L是X上的一个充分Cartier因子.证明了:如果f是一个与极值射线$ R \subset \bar {NE(X)}$相关联的双有理压缩,使得R.(K_X+(n-2)L)<0,则f是光滑点的加权blow-up。然后,我们分类与极值射线R相关联的除数收缩,使得R。(K_X+rL)<0,其中r是非负有理数,并且f的纤维具有小于或等于r+1的维数。
We show that the Kodaira vanishing theorem can fail on smooth Fano varieties of any characteristic p > 0. Taking cones over some of these varieties, we give the first examples of terminal singularities which are not Cohen-Macaulay. By a different method, we construct a terminal singularity of dimension 3 (the lowest possible) in characteristic 2 which is not Cohen-Macaulay.
We study Kawamata log terminal singularities of full rank, i.e., $n$-dimensional klt singularities containing a large finite abelian group of rank $n$ in its regional fundamental group. The main result of this article is that klt singularities of full rank degenerate to cones over log crepant equivalent toric quotient varieties. To establish the main theorem, we reduce the proof to the study of Fano type varieties with large finite automorphisms of full rank. We prove that such Fano type varieties are log crepant equivalent toric. Furthermore, any such Fano variety of dimension $n$ contains an…
By a canonical (resp. terminal) weak $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano $3$-fold we mean a normal projective one with at worst canonical (resp. terminal) singularities on which the anti-canonical divisor is $\mathbb{Q}$-Cartier, nef and big. For a canonical weak $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano $3$-fold $V$, we show that there exists a terminal weak $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano $3$-fold $X$, being birational to $V$, such that the $m$-th anti-canonical map defined by $|-mK_{X}|$ is birational for all $m\geq 52$. As an intermediate result, we show that for any $K$-Mori fiber space $Y$ of a canonical weak $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano $3$-fold, the $…
We prove that a weak $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano $3$-fold with terminal singularities has unobstructed deformations. By using this result and computing some invariants of a terminal singularity, we provide two results on global deformation of a weak $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano $3$-fold. We also treat a stacky proof of the unobstructedness of deformations of a $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano $3$-fold.
It is conjectured that the base varieties of the Iitaka fibrations are bounded when the Iitaka volumes are bounded above. We confirm this conjecture for Iitaka $ε$-lc Fano type fibrations.
