Hirzebruch-Mumford proportionality and locally symmetric varieties of orthogonal type

Abstract

For many classical moduli spaces of orthogonal type there are results about the Kodaira dimension. But nothing is known in the case of dimension greater than 19. In this paper we obtain the first results in this direction. In particular the modular variety defined by the orthogonal group of the even unimodular lattice of signature (2, 8m+2) is of general type if m is at least 5.

Good minimal models with nowhere vanishing holomorphic $1$-forms

Popa and Schnell show that any holomorphic 1-form on a smooth projective variety of general type has zeros. In this article, we show that a smooth good minimal model has a holomorphic 1-form without zero if and only if it admits an analytic fiber bundle structure over a positive dimensional abelian variety.

Algebraic Zhou valuations

In this paper, we generalize Zhou valuations, originally defined on complex domains, to the framework of general schemes. We demonstrate that an algebraic version of the Jonsson--Mustaţă conjecture is equivalent to the statement that every Zhou valuation is quasi-monomial. By introducing a mixed version of jumping numbers and Tian functions associated with valuations, we obtain characterizations of a valuation being a Zhou valuation or computing some jumping number using the Tian functions. Furthermore, we establish the correspondence between Zhou valuations in algebraic settings and their counterparts in analytic settings.
