contents These years, kagome materials with 1:1 stoichiometry have garnered increasing attention, among which FeSn, CoSn, and FeGe have been the focus of current studies. However, all of them are antiferromagnetic, thereby hindering the observation of superconductivity and other novel physical properties. Here, we predict a novel 1:1 kagome metal VSn, which is an intrinsic charge density wave (CDW) material. Interestingly, with increasing pressure or doping concentration, the CDW order is progressively suppressed, followed by the emergence of superconductivity characterized by a non-monotonic transition temperature that exhibits a rare anti-dome-shaped dependence. Above a critical threshold, a reentrance of the CDW phase occurs. The anti-dome superconductivity originates from the first hardening and then softening of phonon modes, together with band reconstruction. Crucially, VSn retains nontrivial topological properties across the entire superconducting regime, a feature of paramount importance for realizing robust topological superconductivity. These intertwined CDW, superconductivity, and topological phenomena elucidate the correlations among multiple quantum states in VSn. Therefore, this research paves the way for for designing 1:1 kagome superconducting topological metals and establishes a platform for exploring the interplay of multiple phases in kagome systems.
