Singularities of varieties admitting an endomorphism

Algebraic Geometry 2017-10-30 v2 Dynamical Systems

Abstract

Let X be a normal variety such that KXK_X is Q-Cartier, and let f:XXf: X \rightarrow X be a finite surjective morphism of degree at least two. We establish a close relation between the irreducible components of the locus of singularities that are not log-canonical and the dynamics of the endomorphism f. As a consequence we prove that if X is projective and f polarised, then X has at most log-canonical singularities.
