Structure & Description
This mini course is combined with 2023 HDAG workshop. We will have 4 invited lecturers to give mini-courses of 3 lectures each. The topics of the mini-courses focus on derived geometry and birational geometry.
Talk Time (Agenda)
3/14 13:30-14:30
3/16 10:30-11:30
3/17 13:30-14:30
Lecture I: Fano surfaces and Fano 3-folds (video)
Abstract: I will talk about the classic classification of del Pezzo (smooth Fano) and smooth Fano 3-folds (Iskhoskikh-Prokhorov). This will an overview of the known results and a highlight of why understanding Fano varieties is important for Algebraic Geometry.
Lecture II: Kawamata log terminal singularities (video)
Abstract: We will introduce Kawamata log terminal singularities and discuss some classic and new results about this class of singularities. We will explain why understanding these singularities is vital, for instance, through the classification of Gorenstein Fano surfaces of Picard rank one.
Lecture III: Complements on Fano varieties (video)
Abstract: We will discuss the existence of complements on Fano varieties and the boundedness of Fano varieties.
