Local inequalities for $cD$ and $cE$ singularities

Source abstract

We obtain inequalities for isolated $cD_n, cE_6, cE_7$ and $cE_8$ singularities, analogues of the $4μ^2/(n+1)$-inequality for isolated $cA_n$ singularity in \cite{KOP}. These inequalities are sharp. This enables us to prove the birational rigidity of certain families of Fano $3$-fold weighted hypersurfaces, which contain only terminal quotient singularities and one $cD_n$ singularity.
