We classify normal supersingular K3 surfaces Y with total Milnor number 20 in characteristic p, where p is an odd prime that does not divide the discriminant of the Dynkin type of the rational double points on Y.
Let X be a projective variety which is algebraic Lang hyperbolic. We show that Lang's conjecture holds (one direction only): X and all its subvarieties are of general type and the canonical divisor K_X is ample at smooth points and Kawamata log terminal points of X, provided that K_X is Q-Cartier, no Calabi-Yau variety is algebraic Lang hyperbolic and a weak abundance conjecture holds.
We use a concise method to construct pseudo-automorphisms f_n of the first dynamical degree d_1(f_n) > 1 on the blowups of the projective n-space for all n > 1 and more generally on the blowups of products of projective spaces. These f_n, for n = 3 have positive entropy, and for n > 3 seem to be the first examples of pseudo-automorphisms with d_1(f_n) > 1 (and of non-product type) on rational varieties of higher dimensions.
We slightly extend a result of Oguiso on birational or automorphism groups (resp. of Lazić - Peternell on Morrison-Kawamata cone conjecture) from Calabi-Yau manifolds of Picard number two to arbitrary singular varieties X (resp. to klt Calabi-Yau pairs in broad sense) of Picard number two. When X has only klt singularities and is not a complex torus, we show that either Aut(X) is almost cyclic, or it has only finitely many connected components.
We consider surjective endomorphisms f of degree > 1 on projective manifolds X of Picard number one and their f^{-1}-stable hypersurfaces V, and show that V is rationally chain connected. Also given is an optimal upper bound for the number of f^{-1}-stable prime divisors on (not necessarily smooth) projective varieties.
For a compact hyperkähler manifold X, we show certain Zariski decomposition for every pseudo-effective R-divisor, and give a sufficient condition for X to be bimeromorphic to a (holomorphic) Lagrangian fibration. We also prove that any sequence of D-flops between projective hyperkähler manifolds terminates after finite steps.
We survey our recent papers (some being joint ones) about the relation between the geometry of a compact Kähler manifold and the existence of automorphisms of positive entropy on it. We also use the language of log minimal model program (LMMP) in biraitonal geometry, but not its more sophisticated technical part. We give applications of LMMP to positivity of log canonical divisor of a Mori / Brody / Lang hyperbolic (quasi-) projective (singular) variety.
We show that a compact Kaehler manifold X is a complex torus if both the continuous part and discrete part of some automorphism group G of X are infinite groups, unless X is bimeromorphic to a non-trivial G-equivariant fibration. Some applications to dynamics are given.
We prove two results about the natural representation of a group G of automorphisms of a normal projective threefold X on its second cohomology. We show that if X is minimal then G, modulo a normal subgroup of null entropy, is embedded as a Zariski-dense subset in a semi-simple real linear algebraic group of real rank < 3. Next, we show that X is a complex torus if the image of G is an almost abelian group of positive rank and the kernel is infinite, unless X is equivariantly non-trivially fibred.
We describe a bound on the degree of the generators for some adjoint rings on surfaces and threefolds.
We confirm, to some extent, the belief that a projective variety X has the largest number (relative to the dimension of X) of independent commuting automorphisms of positive entropy only when X is birational to a complex torus or a quotient of a torus. We also include an addendum to an early paper though it is not used in the present paper.
We consider surjective endomorphisms f of degree > 1 on the projective n-space with n = 3, and f^{-1}-stable hypersurfaces V. We show that V is a hyperplane (i.e., deg(V) = 1) but with four possible exceptions; it is conjectured that deg(V) = 1 for any n > 1.
We prove a structure theorem for non-isomorphic endomorphisms of weak Q-Fano threefolds, or more generally for threefolds with big anti-canonical divisor. Also provided is a criterion for a fibred rationally connected threefold to be rational. As a consequence, we show (without using the classification) that every smooth Fano threefold having a non-isomorphic surjective endomorphism is rational.
In the present paper we describe the K3 surfaces admitting order 11 automorphisms and apply this to classify log Enriques surfaces of global index 11.
We determine the geometric structure of a minimal projective threefold having two `independent and commutative' automorphisms of positive topological entropy, and generalize this result to higher-dimensional smooth minimal pairs (X, G). As a consequence, we give an effective lower bound for the first dynamical degree of these automorphisms of X fitting the `boundary case'.
It is shown that a complex normal projective variety has non-positive Kodaira dimension if it admits a non-isomorphic quasi-polarized endomorphism. The geometric structure of the variety is described by methods of equivariant lifting and fibrations. (For endomorphisms of projective spaces, see version 1).
For a compact Kahler manifold X and a strongly primitive automorphism g of positive entropy, it is shown that X has at most rank NS(X) of g-periodic prime divisors B_i (i.e., g^s(B_i) = B_i for some s > 0). When X is a projective threefold, every prime divisor containing infinitely many g-periodic curves, is shown to be g-periodic itself (a result in the spirit of the Dynamic Manin-Mumford conjecture).
Etale endomorphisms of complex projective manifolds are constructed from two building blocks up to isomorphism if the good minimal model conjecture is true. They are the endomorphisms of abelian varieties and the nearly etale rational endomorphisms of weak Calabi-Yau varieties.
