Uniqueness conjecture for minimizing normalized-volume valuations
Uniqueness conjecture for minimizing normalized-volume valuations
Let be a -Gorenstein klt singularity, and let denote the space of valuations centered at . The normalized volume is denoted by .
Uniqueness conjecture. For any -Gorenstein klt singularity , there exists a unique valuation minimizing on .
The existence of a minimizer is reduced in the paper to lower semicontinuity of the normalized volume, while uniqueness is presented as a conjectural strengthening. The claim concerns the local invariant obtained by minimizing normalized volume over valuations centered at the singular point.
