Some remarks on the volume of log varieties

Abstract

In this note, using methods introduced by Hacon, McKernan and Xu, we study the accumulation points of volumes of varieties of log general type. First, we show that, if the set of boundary coefficients $Λ$ is DCC, closed under limits and contains 1, then also the corresponding set of volumes is DCC and closed under limits. Then, we consider the case of $ε$-log canonical varieties, for $0 < ε< 1$. In this situation, we prove that, if $Λ$ is finite, then the corresponding set of volumes is discrete.

G3-Criteria and Applications

The G3-property of a subvariety was introduced by Hironaka-Matsumura, and plays an important role for deducing connectedness and extension results. Unfortunately, it's a rather elusive notion, which is not always easy to establish. Most of the existing work is concentrated on subvarieties of homogeneous varieties. The first goal of this article is to show that mobility assumptions on the subvariety, considered in works of Badescu, Chow, Debarre, Voisin, yield a certain partial positivity property, slightly stronger than G3, previously introduced by the author. Second, we apply the result to prove that, in numerous situations, the splitting of the normal bundle of a smooth two-codimensional subvariety implies that it is a complete intersection.

Nodal degeneration of chiral algebras I: Global structure and gluing formula

We define a natural extension of a universal factorization algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to families of stable punctured curves, by integrating over all semistable modifications. We prove that the resulting sheaf of factorization homology satisfies a natural gluing formula, by tensoring over a certain derived associative algebra $\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}^0$, generalizing the Verlinde formula for gluing of conformal blocks.
