This paper generalizes the easy addition formula. Given a normal variety $X$ with an invertible sheaf $L$, inequalities are found bounding $\ka(X,L)$ from above based on the behavior of $L$ restricted to a subvariety or to a pair of…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety. The Iitaka dimension of a divisor $D$ is an important invariant, but it does not only depend on the numerical class of $D$. However, there are several definitions of ``numerical Iitaka dimension'',…

In this article we study how the birational geometry of a normal projective variety $X$ is influenced by a normal subvariety $A \subset X.$ One of the most basic examples in this context is provided by the following situation. Let $f:X\to…

The goals of this paper are of two aspects. Firstly, we introduce the notion of generalized numerical Kodaira dimension with multiplier ideal sheaf and establish the subadditivity inequalities in terms of this notion, which can be used to…

Let X be a smooth, projective variety over the field of complex numbers. Here we focus on a conjecture attributed to Shigefumi Mori, which claims that X is uniruled if and only if the Kodaira dimension of X is negative.

We reduce Iitaka's subadditivity conjecture for the logarithmic Kodaira dimension to a special case of the generalized abundance conjecture by establishing an Iitaka type inequality for Nakayama's numerical Kodaira dimension. Our proof…

We study the behavior of the Kodaira dimension of algebraic fiber spaces over threefolds. We prove some cases of the Iitaka Conjecture $C_{n,3}$, including certain situations where the base variety is a Calabi--Yau threefold.

In this paper, inspired by work of Fano, Morin and Campana--Flenner, we give a full projective classification of (however singular) varieties of dimension 3 whose general hyperplane sections have negative Kodaira dimension, and we partly…

Let $X$ be a normal projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field and let $Z$ be a subvariety. Let $D$ be an $\mathbb R$-Cartier $\mathbb R$-divisor on $X$. Given an expression $(\ast) \ D \sim_{\mathbb R} t_1 H_1 + \ldots +…

Let $\kk$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and $\KK$ a finitely generated field over $\kk$. Let $\Sigma$ be a central simple $\KK$-algebra, $X$ a normal projective model of $\KK$ and $\Lambda$ a sheaf of maximal…

A conjecture by Campana and Peternell says that if a positive multiple of $K_X$ is linearly equivalent to an effective divisor $D$ plus a pseudo-effective divisor, then the Kodaira dimension of $X$ should be at least as big as the Iitaka…

A special cubic fourfold is a smooth hypersurface of degree three and dimension four that contains a surface not homologous to a complete intersection. Special cubic fourfolds give rise to a countable family of Noether-Lefschetz divisors…

In this paper we will prove a uniformity result for the Iitaka fibration $f:X \rightarrow Y$, provided that the generic fiber has a good minimal model and the variation of $f$ is zero or that $\kappa(X)=\rm{dim}(X)-1$.

In this paper, we prove a positive characteristic analog of Nakayama's inequality on the numerical Kodaira dimension of algebraic fiber spaces when the generic fibers have nef canonical divisors. To this end, we establish variants of Popa…

Given a (meromorphic) fibration $f:X\to Y$ where $X$ and $Y$ are compact complex manifolds of dimensions $n$ and $m$, we define $L_f$ to be the invertible subsheaf of the sheaf of holomorphic $m$-forms of $X$ given by the saturation of…

In this short article we provide a proof of the Iitaka conjecture for algebraic fiber spaces over abelian varieties.

In this paper, we will prove subadditivity of Kodaira dimensions for a fibration with possibly singular geometric generic fiber, under certain nefness and relative semi-ampleness conditions. As an application, for a fibration $f: X \to Y$…

Modifying the notion of numerically trivial foliation of a pseudo-effective line bundle L introduced by the author in math.AG/0304312 it can be shown that the leaves of this foliation have codimension bigger or equal to the numerical…

We express the Kodaira-Iitaka dimension and the multiplicity of graded linear series in terms of the intersection theory of the plurisubharmonic envelope associated with the linear series, and obtain two refined versions of these formulas…
