Abstract

In this paper, we study the linear systems mKX|-mK_X| on Fano varieties XX with klt singularities. In a given dimension dd, we prove mKX|-mK_X| is non-empty and contains an element with "good singularities" for some natural number mm depending only on dd; if in addition XX is ϵ\epsilon-lc for some ϵ>0\epsilon>0, then we show that we can choose mm depending only on dd and ϵ\epsilon so that mKX|-mK_X| defines a birational map. Further, we prove Shokurov's conjecture on boundedness of complements, and show that certain classes of Fano varieties form bounded families.
