Existence of valuations with smallest normalized volume
Abstract
Li introduced the normalized volume of a valuation due to its relation to K-semistability. He conjectured that over a klt singularity there exists a valuation with smallest normalized volume. We prove this conjecture and provide an example to show that such a valuation need not be divisorial.
