We give an introduction to the theory of varieties of minimal rational tangents, emphasizing its aspect as a fusion of algebraic geometry and differential geometry, more specifically, a fusion of Mori geometry of minimal rational curves and Cartan geometry of cone structures.
A nonsingular rational curve $C$ in a complex manifold $X$ whose normal bundle is isomorphic to $${mathcal O}_{{mathbb P}^1}(1)^{oplus p} oplus {mathcal O}_{{mathbb P}^1}^{oplus q}$$ for some nonnegative integers $p$ and $q$ is called an unbendable r
We study unbendable rational curves, i.e., nonsingular rational curves in a complex manifold of dimension $n$ with normal bundles isomorphic to $mathcal{O}_{mathbb{P}^1}(1)^{oplus p} oplus mathcal{O}_{mathbb{P}^1}^{oplus (n-1-p)}$ for some nonnegativ
In this paper we give a geometric characterization of the cones of toric varieties that are complete intersections. In particular, we prove that the class of complete intersection cones is the smallest class of cones which is closed under direct sum
We present some applications of the deformation theory of toric Fano varieties to K-(semi/poly)stability of Fano varieties. First, we present two examples of K-polystable toric Fano 3-fold with obstructed deformations. In one case, the K-moduli space
In this paper, we study the geometry of various Hessenberg varieties in type A, as well as families thereof, with the additional goal of laying the groundwork for future computations of Newton-Okounkov bodies of Hessenberg varieties. Our main results
