K-regularity for finite quotient singularities
Abstract
We study K-regularity for complex varieties with finite quotient singularities. We prove that for such varieties, K1-regularity is equivalent to smoothness whenever the singular locus is contained in an affine closed subvariety (e.g., affine varieties or those with isolated singularities). In contrast, we construct projective varieties with finite quotient singularities which are Km-regular for every m but are not local complete intersections. Our smoothness criterion is obtained by affirmatively answering Fogarty's 1988 question concerning differential forms on finite quotients.

AB - We study K-regularity for complex varieties with finite quotient singularities. We prove that for such varieties, K_1-regularity is equivalent to smoothness whenever the singular locus is contained in an affine closed subvariety (e.g., affine varieties or those with isolated singularities). In contrast, we construct projective varieties with finite quotient singularities which are K_m-regular for every m but are not local complete intersections. Our smoothness criterion is obtained by affirmatively answering Fogarty's 1988 question concerning differential forms on finite quotients.
