We link small modifications of projective varieties with a ${mathbb C}^*$-action to their GIT quotients. Namely, using flips with centers in closures of Bia{l}ynicki-Birula cells, we produce a system of birational equivariant modifications of the original variety, which includes those on which a quotient map extends from a set of semistable points to a regular morphism. The structure of the modifications is completely described for the blowup along the sink and the source of smooth varieties with Picard number one with a ${mathbb C}^*$-action which has no finite isotropy for any point. Examples can be constructed upon homogeneous varieties with a ${mathbb C}^*$-action associated to short grading of their Lie algebras.
We present an algorithm to compute the automorphism group of a Mori dream space. As an example calculation, we determine the automorphism groups of singular cubic surfaces with general parameters. The strategy is to study graded automorphisms of affi
Mori dream spaces form a large example class of algebraic varieties, comprising the well known toric varieties. We provide a first software package for the explicit treatment of Mori dream spaces and demonstrate its use by presenting basic sample com
In this paper we study smooth projective varieties and polarized pairs with an action of a one dimensional complex torus. As a main tool, we define birational geometric counterparts of these actions, that, under certain assumptions, encode the inform
We give a characterization of projective spaces for quasi-log canonical pairs from the Mori theoretic viewpoint.
Motivated by the general question of existence of open A1-cylinders in higher dimensional pro-jective varieties, we consider the case of Mori Fiber Spaces of relative dimension three, whose general closed fibers are isomorphic to the quintic del Pezz
