It is conjectured that the canonical models of varieties (not of general type) are bounded when the Iitaka volume is fixed. We confirm this conjecture when the general fibers of the corresponding Iitaka fibration are in a fixed bounded…

Let $f:(X,B)\to Z$ be a 3-fold extremal dlt flipping contraction defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>5$, such that the coefficients of $\{B\}$ are in the standard set $\{1-\frac 1n|n\in \mathbb N\}$, then the…

Let $g : X \to Y$ be the contraction of an extremal ray of a smooth projective 4-fold $X$ such that $\dim Y=3$. Then $g$ may have a finite number of 2-dimensional fibers. We shall classify those fibers. Especially we shall prove that any…

We prove that a fibration X \to \Bbb P_1, the general fiber of which is a smooth Fano threefold, is rationally connected. The proof is based on a generalization of Tsen's classical theorem: a fibration X/C over a curve the general fiber of…

Let $X$ be a Gorenstein minimal projective 3-fold with at worst locally factorial terminal singularities. Suppose the canonical map is of fiber type. Denote by $F$ a smooth model of a generic irreducible component in fibers of the canonical…

We prove a logarithmic base change theorem for pushforwards of pluri-canonical bundles and use it to deduce that positivity properties of log canonical divisors descend via smooth projective morphisms. As an application, for a surjective…

Let $(X, \Delta)$ be a projective klt three dimensional pair defined over an algebraically closed field characteristic larger than 5. Let $L$ be a nef and big line bundle on $X$ such that $L-K_X-\Delta$ is big and nef. We show that $L$ is…

In this paper, we proved that, for a semi-stable fibration of a proper smooth surface to a proper smooth curve over a field of positive characteristic, if the generic fiber is ordinary, then the semi-positivity theorem holds. As an…

Let $(X,\Delta)$ be a 4-dimensional log variety which is proper over the field of complex numbers and with only divisorial log terminal singularities. The log canonical divisor $K_X+\Delta$ is semi-ample, if it is nef (numerically…

In this paper, we establish a structure theorem for a smooth projective variety $X$ with semi-positive holomorphic sectional curvature. Our structure theorem contains the solution for Yau's conjecture and it can be regarded as a natural…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety. We study a relationship between the derived category of $X$ and that of a canonical divisor. As an application, we will study Fourier-Mukai transforms when $\kappa (X)=dim X-1$.

We study the relationship between Iitaka fibrations and the conjecture on the existence of complements, assuming the good minimal model conjecture. In one direction, we show that the conjecture on the existence of complements implies the…

If $X$ is a smooth complex projective 3-fold with ample canonical divisor $K$, then the inequality $K^3\ge {2/3}(2p_g-7)$ holds, where $p_g$ denotes the geometric genus. This inequality is nearly sharp. We also give similar, but more…

We show that for a surjective, separable morphism f of smooth projective varieties over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic such that $f_* \mathcal{O}_X = \mathcal{O}_Y$ subadditivity of Kodaira dimension holds,…

Given a Q-Cartier divisor $S \subset X$ admitting a fibration $S \rightarrow B$ onto a curve we give sufficient conditions for the existence of a bimeromorphic contraction contracting S onto B. As a corollary we recover a contraction result…

We use the theory of foliations to study the relative canonical divisor of a normalized inseparable base-change. Our main technical theorem states that it is linearly equivalent to a divisor with positive integer coefficients divisible by…

We show that the M-canonical map of an n-dimensional complex projective manifold X of Kodaira dimension two is birational to an Iitaka fibration for a computable positive integer M. M depends on the index b of a general fibre F of the…

Let X be a smooth projective threefold, and let A be an ample line bundle such that $K_X+A$ is nef. We show that if $K_X$ or $-K_X$ is pseudoeffective, the adjoint bundle $K_X+A$ has global sections. We also give a very short proof of the…

We give several structure theorems for certain surjective endomorphisms on Mori fibre spaces, based on the dynamical Iitaka fibration of the ramification divisor. As an application, we prove the Kawaguchi-Silverman conjecture for projective…

We consider threefolds that admit a fibration by K3 surfaces over a nonsingular curve, equipped with a divisorial sheaf that defines a polarisation of degree two on the general fibre. Under certain assumptions on the threefold we show that…
