On the boundedness of elliptic Calabi-Yau 4-folds

In this work, we settle the boundedness of a vast class of elliptic Calabi-Yau 4-folds. In particular, we show that any elliptic Calabi-Yau 4-fold that is not crepant to the quotient of a product $Y \times E$, where $E$ is an elliptic curve and $Y$ a Calabi-Yau 3-fold, belongs to finitely many algebraic families. In particular, the statement applies whenever the elliptic fibration of the Calabi-Yau 4-fold is not isotrivial. We also provide partial evidence for the boundedness of the middle Betti number of Calabi-Yau 3-folds and study the index of fibered $K$-trivial 4-folds.

Deformations of fibered Calabi--Yau varieties

Koll\'{a}r showed that small deformations of elliptically fibered smooth $K$-torsion varieties with $H^2(X,\mathcal{O}_X)=0$ remain elliptically fibered. We extend this result to any fibered smooth $K$-torsion variety $X$ with $H^2(X,\mathcal{O}_X)=0$, using Hodge theoretic techniques and the $T^1$-lifting criterion of Kawamata--Ran. More generally, our strategy implies that even without the cohomological assumption, small deformations of a semiample line bundle on a smooth $K$-torsion variety remain semiample up to homological equivalence.

Characterization of products of projective spaces via nef complexity

We define the nef complexity of a projective variety $X$. This invariant compares $\dim X+\rho(X)$ with the sum of the coefficients of nef partitions of $-K_X$. We prove that the nef complexity is non-negative and it is zero precisely for products of projective spaces. We classify smooth Fano threefolds with nef complexity at most one. In a similar vein, we prove Mukai's conjecture for smooth Fano varieties for which every extremal contraction is of fiber type and study smooth images of products of projective spaces. Along the way, we answer positively a question of J. Starr regarding the nef cone of smooth Fano varieties.

Baily--Borel compactifications of period images and the b-semiampleness conjecture

We address two questions related to the semiampleness of line bundles arising from Hodge theory. First, we prove there is a functorial compactification of the image of a period map of a polarizable integral pure variation of Hodge structures for which the Griffiths bundle extends amply. In particular the Griffiths bundle is semiample. We prove more generally that the Hodge bundle of a Calabi--Yau variation of Hodge structures is semiample subject to some extra conditions, and as our second result deduce the b-semiampleness conjecture and the existence of a functorial Hodge-theoretic compactification of moduli spaces of polarized Calabi--Yau varieties. The semiampleness results (and the construction of the Baily--Borel compactifications) crucially use o-minimal GAGA, and the deduction of the b-semiampleness conjecture uses work of Ambro and results of Koll\'ar on the geometry of minimal lc centers to verify the extra conditions.

Boundedness of some fibered K-trivial varieties

We prove that irreducible Calabi-Yau varieties of a fixed dimension, admitting a fibration by abelian varieties or primitive symplectic varieties of a fixed analytic deformation class, are birationally bounded. We prove that there are only finitely many deformation classes of primitive symplectic varieties of a fixed dimension, admitting a Lagrangian fibration. We also show that fibered Calabi-Yau 3-folds are bounded. Conditional on the generalized abundance or hyperk\"ahler SYZ conjecture, our results prove that there are only finitely many deformation classes of hyperk\"ahler varieties, of a fixed dimension, with $b_2 \geq 5$.

A strong counterexample to the log canonical Beauville--Bogomolov decomposition

For every $d \geq 4$, we construct a $d$-dimensional, log canonical, $K$-trivial variety with the property that two general fibers of its Albanese morphism are not birational. This provides a strong counterexample to the Beauville--Bogomolov decomposition in the log canonical setting. This construction can also be adapted to construct a smooth quasi-projective variety of logarithmic Kodaira dimension 0 whose quasi-Albanese morphism has maximal variation. On the positive side, we show that the Albanese morphism for log canonical pairs with nef anti-canonical class is a locally stable family of pairs.

Arithmetic and geometric deformations of 3-folds

We show that mixed-characteristic and equi-characteristic small deformations of 3-dimensional canonical (resp. terminal) singularities with perfect residue field of characteristic $p>5$ are canonical (resp. terminal). We discuss applications to arithmetic and geometric families of 3-dimensional Fano varieties and minimal models with canonical singularities. Our results are contingent upon the existence of log resolutions of 4-folds.

Rational points on 3-folds with nef anti-canonical class over finite fields

We prove that a geometrically integral smooth 3-fold $X$ with nef anti-canonical class and negative Kodaira dimension over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p>5$ and cardinality $q=p^e > 19$ has a rational point. Additionally, under the same assumptions on $p$ and $q$, we show that a 3-fold $X$ with trivial canonical class and non-zero first Betti number $b_1(X) \neq 0$ has a rational point. Our techniques rely on the Minimal Model Program to establish several structure results for generalized log Calabi--Yau 3-fold pairs over perfect fields.

Moduli of $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein pairs and applications

We develop a framework to construct moduli spaces of $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein pairs. To do so, we fix certain invariants; these choices are encoded in the notion of $\mathbb{Q}$-stable pair. We show that these choices give a proper moduli space with projective coarse moduli space and they prevent some pathologies of the moduli space of stable pairs when the coefficients are smaller than $\frac{1}{2}$. Lastly, we apply this machinery to provide an alternative proof of the projectivity of the moduli space of stable pairs.

On the connectedness principle and dual complexes for generalized pairs

Let $(X,B)$ be a pair, and let $f \colon X \rightarrow S$ be a contraction with $-(K_X + B)$ nef over $S$. A conjecture, known as the Shokurov-Kollár connectedness principle, predicts that $f^{-1} (s) \cap \mathrm{Nklt}(X,B)$ has at most two connected components, where $s \in S$ is an arbitrary schematic point and $\mathrm{Nklt}(X,B)$ denotes the non-klt locus of $(X,B)$. In this work, we prove this conjecture, characterizing those cases in which $\mathrm{Nklt}(X,B)$ fails to be connected, and we extend these same results also to the category of generalized pairs. Finally, we apply these results and the techniques to the study of the dual complex for generalized log Calabi-Yau pairs, generalizing results of Kollár-Xu and Nakamura.

Complements and coregularity of Fano varieties

We study the relation between the coregularity, the index of log Calabi-Yau pairs, and the complements of Fano varieties. We show that the index of a log Calabi-Yau pair $(X,B)$ of coregularity $1$ is at most $120\lambda^2$, where $\lambda$ is the Weil index of $K_X+B$. This extends a recent result due to Filipazzi, Mauri, and Moraga. We prove that a Fano variety of absolute coregularity $0$ admits either a $1$-complement or a $2$-complement. In the case of Fano varieties of absolute coregularity $1$, we show that they admit an $N$-complement with $N$ at most 6. Applying the previous results, we prove that a klt singularity of absolute coregularity $0$ admits either a $1$-complement or $2$-complement. Furthermore, a klt singularity of absolute coregularity $1$ admits an $N$-complement with $N$ at most 6. This extends the classic classification of $A,D,E$-type klt surface singularities to arbitrary dimensions. Similar results are proved in the case of coregularity $2$. In the course of the proof, we prove a novel canonical bundle formula for pairs with bounded relative coregularity. In the case of coregularity at least $3$, we establish analogous statements under the assumption of the index conjecture and the boundedness of B-representations.

Index of coregularity zero log Calabi-Yau pairs

In this article, we study the index of log Calabi--Yau pairs $(X,B)$ of coregularity 0. We show that $2\lambda(K_X+B)\sim 0$, where $\lambda$ is the Weil index of $(X,B)$. This is in contrast to the case of klt Calabi--Yau varieties, where the index can grow doubly exponentially with the dimension. Our sharp bound on the index extends to the context of generalized log Calabi--Yau pairs, semi-log canonical pairs, and isolated log canonical singularities of coregularity 0. As a consequence, we show that the index of a variety appearing in the Gross--Siebert program or in the Kontsevich--Soibelman program is at most $2$. Finally, we discuss applications to Calabi--Yau varieties endowed with a finite group action, including holomorphic symplectic varieties endowed with a purely non-symplectic automorphism.

The Jordan property for local fundamental groups

We show the Jordan property for regional fundamental groups of klt singularities of fixed dimension. Furthermore, we prove the existence of effective simultaneous index one covers for $n$-dimensional klt singularities. We give an application to the study of local class groups of klt singularities.

Invariance of Plurigenera and boundedness for Generalized Pairs

In this note, we survey some recent developments in birational geometry concerning the boundedness of algebraic varieties. We delineate a strategy to extend some of these results to the case of generalized pairs, first introduced by Birkar and Zhang, when the associated log canonical divisor is ample, and the volume is fixed. In this context, we show a version of deformation invariance of plurigenera for generalized pairs. We conclude by discussing an application to the boundedness of varieties of Kodaira dimension $κ(X)=\dim(X)-1$.

Log canonical $3$-fold complements

We expand the theory of log canonical $3$-fold complements. We prove that if $X\rightarrow T$ is a $3$-dimensional contraction of log Calabi-Yau type, then we can find $B\geq 0$ on $X$ for which $(X,B)$ is log canonical and $n(K_X+B)\sim_T 0$, where $n$ is an uniform natural number. This means that every $3$-fold of log Calabi-Yau type can be turned into a log Calabi-Yau pair in an effective way.

Boundedness of elliptic Calabi-Yau threefolds

We show that elliptic Calabi--Yau threefolds form a bounded family. We also show that the same result holds for minimal terminal threefolds of Kodaira dimension 2, upon fixing the rate of growth of pluricanonical forms and the degree of a multisection of the Iitaka fibration. Both of these hypotheses are necessary to prove the boundedness of such a family.
