16:30 - 18:00 Algebraic Geometry Biweekly Webinar What is K-stability? School MATHEMATICS K-stability is an algebraic notion introduced by Tian and Donaldson to characterise which Fano manifolds admit a Kähler-Einstein metric. There are various equivalent definitions for K-stability, amongst them the more recent ones are based on valuative criteria and are more useful from a birational point of view. In this talk, I will give an introduction to the subject, from a birational viewpoint, and explain some key questions and developments in the field, mostly around methods of verifying K-stability. This is based on joint work with Ziquan Zhuang. https://zoom.us/join Meeting ID: 9086116889 Passcode: 362880 < ... |
