The study of projective varieties with nef anticanonical divisors and log terminal singularities.

The Miyaoka-Yau inequality is proven for certain singular varieties with big canonical or anticanonical divisors.

Fundamental groups of certain Kähler orbifolds have polynomial growth.

Study the Albanese map for Kähler manifolds with nef anticanonical bundle.

We study the algebraic dimension of twistor spaces of positive type over $4\bbfP^2$. We show that such a twistor space is Moishezon if and only if its anticanonical class is not nef. More precisely, we show the equivalence of being Moishezon with the existence of a smooth rational curve having negative intersection num…

Study b-divisors on Kähler manifolds linking them to currents.

We apply a recent theorem of Li and the first author to give some criteria for the K-stability of Fano varieties in terms of anticanonical Q-divisors. First, we propose a condition in terms of certain anticanonical Q-divisors of given Fano variety, which we conjecture to be equivalent to the K-stability. We prove that …

New complete Calabi-Yau metrics found in complex space.

We study the geometry of complexified moduli spaces of special Lagrangian submanifolds in the complement of an anticanonical divisor in a compact Kahler manifold. In particular, we explore the connections between T-duality and mirror symmetry in concrete examples, and show how quantum corrections arise in this context.

The paper proves inequalities for orbifold second Chern classes in Fujiki's class.

New Calabi-Yau metrics converge polynomially to Calabi model space.

The paper classifies certain singular projective varieties with specific properties.

We discuss a technique to construct Ricci-flat hermitian metrics on complements of (some) anticanonical divisors of almost homogeneous manifolds and discuss when this metric is complete and Kähler. This construction has a strong interplay with invariance groups of the same dimension as the manifold acting with an open …

In this paper, we study a projective klt pair $(X, Δ)$ with the nef anti-log canonical divisor $-(K_X+Δ)$ and its maximally rationally connected fibration $ψ: X \dashrightarrow Y$. We prove that the numerical dimension of the anti-log canonical divisor $-(K_X+Δ)$ on $X$ coincides with that of the anti-log canonical div…

The paper studies algebraic fibre spaces with specific properties and proves key results about their structure.

Tian and Yau constructed a complete Ricci-flat Kähler metric on the complement of an ample and smooth anticanonical divisor. We inquire into the behaviour of this metric towards the boundary divisor and prove a slow decay rate of the difference to an appropriate explicitely given referential metric.

The paper extends intersection theory for b-divisors, proving monotonicity and volume inequalities.

In this paper we classify all Moishezon twistor spaces on 4CP^2. The classification is given in terms of the structure of the anticanonical system of the twistor spaces. We show that the anticanonical map satisfies one of the following three properties: (a) birational over the image, (b) two to one over the image, or (…

We continue to study twistor spaces on the connected sum of four complex projective planes, whose anticanonical map is of degree two over the image. In particular, we determine the defining equation of the branch divisor of the anticanonical map in an explicit form. Together with previous two articles (arXiv:1009.3153 …

Establishes Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence for nef and big classes.

The paper studies fundamental groups of compact Kahler varieties with nef anti-canonical bundles.

We give a simple criterion for slope stability of Fano manifolds $X$ along divisors or smooth subvarieties. As an application, we show that $X$ is slope stable along an ample effective divisor $D\subset X$ unless $X$ is isomorphic to a projective space and $D$ is a hyperplane section. We also give counterexamples to Au…

The paper classifies and studies symplectic and contact properties of circular spherical divisors.

We study the evolution of anticanonical line bundles along the Kähler Ricci flow. We show that under some conditions, the convergence of Kähler Ricci flow is determined by the properties of the anticanonical divisors of $M$. As examples, the Kähler Ricci flow on $M$ converges when $M$ is a Fano surface and $c_1^2(M)=1$…

Study finds limits for conical Kähler-Einstein metrics on unstable surfaces.

In this paper, we show that the canonical divisor of a smooth toroidal compactification of a complex hyperbolic manifold must be nef if the dimension is greater or equal to three. Moreover, if $n\geq 3$ we show that the numerical dimension of the canonical divisor of a smooth $n$-dimensional compactification is always …

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus at least two, and let ${\mathcal Q}_X(r,d)$ be the quot scheme that parametrizes all the torsion coherent quotients of ${\mathcal O}^{\oplus r}_X$ of degree $d$. This ${\mathcal Q}_X(r,d)$ is also a moduli space of vortices on $X$. Its geometric properties have be…

We introduce a new effective stability named "divisorial stability" for Fano manifolds which is weaker than K-stability and is stronger than slope stability along divisors. We show that we can test divisorial stability via the volume function. As a corollary, we prove that the first coordinate of the barycenter of the …

The paper classifies minimal projective varieties satisfying a specific equality.

Solves open problems on curved projective varieties.

We generalize the maximal time existence of Kähler-Ricci flow in Tian-Zhang and Song-Tian to conical case. Furthermore, if the twisted canonical bundle $K_{M}+(1-β)[D]$ is big or big and nef, we can expect more on the limit behaviors of such conical Kähler-Ricci flow. Moreover, the results still hold for simple normal …

Fix a K3 lattice $Λ$ of rank two and $L\inΛ$ a big and nef divisor that is positive enough. We prove that the generic $Λ$-polarised K3 surface has an integral nodal rational curve in the linear system $|L|$, in particular strengthening previous work of the first named author. The technique is by degeneration, and also …

The continuity method is used to deform the cone angle of a weak conical Kähler-Einstein metric with cone singularities along a smooth anti-canonical divisor on a smooth Fano manifold. This leads to an alternative proof of Donaldson's Openness Theorem on deforming cone angle \cite{Don} by combining it with the regulari…

We construct examples of asymptotically cylindrical Riemannian 8-manifolds with holonomy group Spin(7). To our knowledge, these are the first such examples. The construction uses an extension to asymptotically cylindrical setting of Joyce's existence result for torsion-free Spin(7)-structures. One source of examples ar…

We consider minimal compact complex surfaces S with Betti numbers b_1=1 and n=b_2>0. A theorem of Donaldson gives n exceptional line bundles. We prove that if in a deformation, these line bundles have sections, S is a degeneration of blown-up Hopf surfaces. Besides, if there exists an integer m>0 and a flat line bundle…

Holomorphic splitting theorem for Calabi-Yau manifolds with specific properties.

The goal of this paper is to study the geometry of cusped complex hyperbolic manifolds through their compactifications. We characterize toroidal compactifications with non-nef canonical divisor. We derive effective very ampleness results for toroidal compactifications of finite volume complex hyperbolic manifolds. We e…

Extends K-stability theory to projective klt pairs with a big anticanonical class.

We investigate geometric invariants of the one parameter family of Mukai threefolds that admit $\mathbb C^{*}$ action. In particular we find the invariant divisors in the anticanonical system, and thus establish a bound on the log canonical thresholds. Furthermore we find an explicit description of such threefolds in t…

Let $\mathcal{O}(D)$ be an equivariant line bundle which is big and nef on a complex projective nonsingular toric variety $X$. Given a continuous toric metric $\|\cdot\|$ on $\mathcal{O}(D)$, we define the energy at equilibrium of $(X,φ_{\bar{D}})$ where $φ_{\bar{D}}$ is the weight of the metrized toric divisor $\bar{D…

Study shows convergence of anticanonically balanced metrics to Kähler-Einstein metrics on Fano manifolds.

In this paper we provide a classification of all Moishezon twistor spaces on the connected sum of four complex projective planes. This is given by means of the anticanonical system of the twistor spaces. In particular, we show that the anticanonical map is birational, two to one over the image, or otherwise the image o…

The note proves positive currents induced by VKE with mixed singularities.

We consider the connected-sum method of constructing compact Riemannian 7-manifolds with holonomy G_2 developed in math.DG/0012189. The method requires pairs of projective complex threefolds endowed with anticanonical K3 divisors, the latter `matching' via a certain non-holomorphic map. Suitable examples of threefolds …
