Finite generation for valuations computing stability thresholds and applications to K-stability

Y Liu, C Xu, Z Zhuang - Annals of Mathematics, 2022 - projecteuclid.org
We prove that on any log Fano pair of dimension n whose stability threshold is less than
n+1n, any valuation computing the stability threshold has a finitely generated associated …

Openness of K-semistability for Fano varieties

H Blum, Y Liu, C Xu - Duke Mathematical Journal, 2022 - projecteuclid.org
In this paper, we prove the openness of K-semistability in families of log Fano pairs by
showing that the stability threshold is a constructible function on the fibers. We also prove …

Optimal destabilizing centers and equivariant K-stability

Z Zhuang - Inventiones mathematicae, 2021 - Springer
We give an algebraic proof of the equivalence of equivariant K-semistability (resp.
equivariant K-polystability) with geometric K-semistability (resp. geometric K-polystability) …

Reductivity of the automorphism group of K-polystable Fano varieties

J Alper, H Blum, D Halpern-Leistner, C Xu - Inventiones mathematicae, 2020 - Springer
We prove that K-polystable log Fano pairs have reductive automorphism groups. In fact, we
deduce this statement by establishing more general results concerning the S-completeness …

Moduli of boundary polarized Calabi-Yau pairs

K Ascher, D Bejleri, H Blum, K DeVleming… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
We develop the moduli theory of boundary polarized CY pairs, which are slc Calabi-Yau
pairs $(X, D) $ such that $ D $ is ample. The motivation for studying this moduli problem is to …

On properness of K-moduli spaces and optimal degenerations of Fano varieties

H Blum, D Halpern-Leistner, Y Liu, C Xu - Selecta Mathematica, 2021 - Springer
We establish an algebraic approach to prove the properness of moduli spaces of K-
polystable Fano varieties and reduce the problem to a conjecture on destabilizations of K …

The existence of the Kähler–Ricci soliton degeneration

H Blum, Y Liu, C Xu, Z Zhuang - Forum of Mathematics, Pi, 2023 - cambridge.org
We prove an algebraic version of the Hamilton–Tian conjecture for all log Fano pairs. More
precisely, we show that any log Fano pair admits a canonical two-step degeneration to a …

K-stability and birational models of moduli of quartic K3 surfaces

K Ascher, K DeVleming, Y Liu - Inventiones mathematicae, 2023 - Springer
We show that the K-moduli spaces of log Fano pairs (P 3, c S) where S is a quartic surface
interpolate between the GIT moduli space of quartic surfaces and the Baily–Borel …

Twisted Kähler–Einstein metrics in big classes

T Darvas, K Zhang - Communications on Pure and Applied …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
We prove existence of twisted Kähler–Einstein metrics in big cohomology classes, using a
divisorial stability condition. In particular, when− KX -K_X is big, we obtain a uniform Yau …
