Reductive quotients of klt singularities.

We prove that the quotient of a klt type singularity by a reductive group is of klt type in characteristic 0. In particular, given a klt variety X endowed with the action of a reductive group G and admitting a quasi-projective good quotient X → X / / G , we can find a boundary B on X / / G so that the pair (X / / G , B) is klt. This applies for example to GIT-quotients of klt varieties. Our main result has consequences for complex spaces obtained as quotients of Hamiltonian Kähler G -manifolds, for collapsings of homogeneous vector bundles as introduced by Kempf, and for good moduli spaces of smooth Artin stacks. In particular, it implies that the good moduli space parametrizing n -dimensional K-polystable smooth Fano varieties of volume v has klt type singularities. As a corresponding result regarding global geometry, we show that quotients of Mori Dream Spaces with klt Cox rings are Mori Dream Spaces with klt Cox ring. This in turn applies to show that projective GIT-quotients of varieties of Fano type are of Fano type; in particular, projective moduli spaces of semistable quiver representations are of Fano type.
