Achieved optimal minimal log discrepancy in dimension 2
Abstract
We construct exceptional Fano varieties with the smallest known minimal log discrepancies in all dimensions. These varieties are well-formed hypersurfaces in weighted projective space. Their minimal log discrepancies decay doubly exponentially with dimension, and achieve the optimal value in dimension 2.
