Let $f:\,X \to \mathbb{P}^1$ be a non-isotrivial semi-stable family of varieties of dimension $m$ over $\mathbb{P}^1$ with $s$ singular fibers. Assume that the smooth fibers $F$ are minimal, i.e., their canonical line bundles are semiample.…

Let $f:X\rightarrow Y$ be an algebraic fibre space between normal projective varieties and $F$ be a general fibre of $f$. We prove an Iitaka-type inequality $\kappa(X,-K_X)\leq \kappa(F,-K_F)+\kappa(Y,-K_Y)$ under some mild conditions. We…

Let X be a normal projective variety of dimension n > 2 admitting the action of the group G := Z^{n-1} such that every non-trivial element of G is of positive entropy. We show: `X is not rationally connected' ==> `X is G-equivariant…

We study the projective normality of a minimal surface $X$ which is a ramified double covering over a rational surface $S$ with $\dim|-K_S|\ge 1$. In particular Horikawa surfaces, the minimal surfaces of general type with $K^2_X=2p_g(X)-4$,…

Let $X \to S$ be a minimal abelian fibration of relative dimension $n$ over a curve. We classify all possible singular fibers $X_s$ having $(n-1)$-dimensional ``abelian variety parts''. This generalizes Kodaira's work on elliptic…

Let $X$ be an arithmetic variety over the ring of integers of a number field $K$, with smooth generic fiber $X_K$. We give a formula that relates the dimension of the first Arakelov-Chow vector space of $X$ with the Mordell-Weil rank of the…

We introduce an axiomatic definition for the Kodaira dimension and classify Thurston geometries in dimensions $\leq 5$ in terms of this Kodaira dimension. We show that the Kodaira dimension is monotone with respect to the partial order…

In this paper, we prove that for a fibration $f:X\to Z$ from a smooth projective 3-fold to a smooth projective curve, over an algebraically closed field $k$ with $\mathrm{char} k =p >5$, if the geometric generic fiber $X_{\overline\eta}$ is…

A Kodaira fibration is a compact, complex surface admitting a holomorphic submersion onto a complex curve, such that the fibers have nonconstant moduli. We consider Kodaira fibrations X with nontrivial invariant rational cohomology in…

We show that in positive characteristic, the Albanese morphism of normal proper varieties $X$ with $\kappa_S(X, \omega_X) = 0$ is separable, surjective, has connected fibers, and the generic fiber $F$ also satisfies $\kappa(F, \omega_F) =…
