Divisorial instability and Vojta's Main Conjecture for $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties

Abstract

We study Diophantine arithmetic properties of birational divisors in conjunction with concepts that surround K-stability for Fano varieties. There is also an interpretation in terms of the barycentres of Newton-Okounkov bodies. Our main results show how the notion of divisorial instability, in the sense of K. Fujita, implies instances of Vojta's Main Conjecture for Fano varieties. A main tool in the proof of these results is an arithmetic form of Cartan's Second Main Theorem that has been obtained by M. Ru and P. Vojta.
