Abstract
This paper generalises Mori’s famous theorem about “Projective manifolds with ample tangent bundles” (Mori in Ann Math (2) 110(3):593–606, 1979) to normal projective varieties in the following way: a normal projective variety over \({\mathbb {C}}\) with ample tangent sheaf is isomorphic to the complex projective space.
