Section 116
Proof for every smooth member
Proof of Theorem 108.1. Let be a prime divisor over . Suppose that . Proposition 110.6 puts its centre on one of the two lines through the singular point of an or fibre. Denote this line by and choose a closed point of the centre.
If is the singular point of the fibre, Proposition 112.1 and Corollary 113.6 give , a contradiction. If , use Lemma 114.3 or Proposition 114.6. Their bounds are again strictly greater than one.
Assume that is outside these two points. Interchange the plane projections so that the first contracts . If , Lemma 111.10 supplies a smooth quintic del Pezzo section through on which lies on none of the ten lines. Lemmas 111.5, 111.7 and 111.8, with the two projections interchanged, give . If , Lemma 111.10 says that the fibre has type and is its remaining smooth corner. Proposition 115.1 gives there. This is the last possibility.
In every case , contrary to our assumption. Thus every prime divisor over has positive beta invariant. The valuative criterion proves K-stability. ◻
Example 116.1. The pencil in Example 109.5 has three fibres. At each singular point the weighted extraction gives . Each of the two lines has one point on ; its ordinary point extraction gives . Every other point on these lines is treated by an opposite quintic section. Thus even this pencil, whose six ramification contributions are all concentrated at three points, is covered by the proof.
The extraction arguments do not infer a refined series from a volume alone. In each case, actual anticanonical sections supply independent initial forms, and the exact Hilbert count proves that they exhaust the associated graded space. The barycentres or binary-space sums then compute with its original normalization. This is why the Abban–Zhuang inequalities apply without a Zariski decomposition on the extracted threefold.
