Let $(X,B)$ be a log canonical pair over a normal variety $Z$ with maximal Albanese dimension. If $K_X+B$ is relatively abundant over $Z$ (for example, $K_X+B$ is relatively big over $Z$), then we prove that $K_X+B$ is abundant. In…
We consider the minimal model program for varieties that are not Q-factorial. We show that, in many cases, its steps are simpler than expected. In particular, all flips are 1-complemented. The main applications are to log terminal…
One of the central aims of the Minimal Model Program is to show that a projective log canonical pair $(X,\Delta)$ with $K_X+\Delta$ pseudoeffective has a good model, i.e.\ a minimal model $(Y,\Delta_Y)$ such that $K_Y+\Delta_Y$ is…
We study the termination of minimal model programs for log canonical pairs in the complex analytic setting. By using the termination, we prove a relation between the minimal model theory for projective log canonical pairs and that for log…
We prove boundedness of global strong $(\delta,n)$-complements for generalized $\epsilon$-log canonical pairs of Fano type. We also prove some partial results towards boundedness of local strong $(\delta,n)$-complements for semi-stable…
We study the log canonical models of the moduli space MBar_{0,n} of pointed stable genus zero curves with respect to the standard log canonical divisors K+aD, where D denotes the boundary. In particular we show that, as a formal consequence…
In this paper, we give an affirmative answer to a conjecture in the Minimal Model Program. We prove that log $Q$-Fano varieties of dim $n$ are rationally connected. We also study the behavior of the canonical bundles under projective…
Given a logarithmic $1$-form on the snc locus of a log canonical surface pair $(X, D)$ over a perfect field of characteristic $p \ge 7$, we show that it extends with at worst logarithmic poles to any resolution of singularities. We also…
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 prove existence of flips, special termination, the base point free theorem and, in the case of log general type, the existence of minimal models for F-dlt foliated pairs of co-rank one on a $\mathbb Q$-factorial projective threefold. As…
We show that the number of marked minimal models of an n-dimensional smooth complex projective variety of general type can be bounded in terms of its volume, and, if n=3, also in terms of its Betti numbers. For an n-dimensional projective…
Given a three-dimensional projective log canonical pair over a perfect field of characteristic larger than five, there exists a minimal model program that terminates after finitely many steps.
Let $k$ be an imperfect field. Let $X$ be a regular variety over $k$ and set $Y$ to be the normalization of $(X \times_k k^{1/p^{\infty}})_{{\rm red}}$. In this paper, we show that $K_Y+C=f^*K_X$ for some effective divisor $C$ on $Y$. We…
Using techniques from the theory of foliations, we establish the cone theorem and the contraction theorem for lc generalized pairs in full generality, and meanwhile develop the minimal model program for $\mathbb Q$-factorial foliated dlt…
This paper shows that Mustata-Nakamura's conjecture holds for pairs consisting of a smooth surface and a multiideal with a real exponent over the base field of positive characteristic. As corollaries, we obtain the ascending chain condition…
In this note we give examples of Zariski's pairs $B_{1,m}, B_{2,m}$ ($m \in N$ and $m \geq 5$) of plane cuspidal curves such that (i) $B_{i,m}$ is the discriminant curve of a generic morphism $f_{i,m}:S_i \to P^2$, $i=1, 2$, (ii) $S_1$ and…
A natural construction of the logarithmic extension of the M(2,p) minimal models is presented, which generalises our previous model [0708.0802] of percolation (p=3). Its key aspect is the replacement of the minimal model irreducible modules…
We give a classification of the log canonical models of elliptic surface pairs consisting of an elliptic fibration, a section, and a weighted sum of marked fibers. In particular, we show how the log canonical models depend on the choice of…
In this paper, we completely work out the log minimal model program for the moduli space of stable curves of genus three. We employ a rational multiple $\alpha\delta$ of the divisor $\delta$ of singular curves as the boundary divisor,…
Minimal log discrepancies (mld's) are related not only to termination of log flips, and thus to the existence of log flips but also to the ascending chain condition (acc) of some global invariants and invariants of singularities in the Log…
