We establish the Noether inequality for projective $3$-folds. More precisely, we prove that the inequality $${\rm vol}(X)\geq \tfrac{4}{3}p_g(X)-{\tfrac{10}{3}}$$ holds for all projective $3$-folds $X$ of general type with either…

Let $X$ be a smooth irregular $3$-fold of general type over $\mathbb{C}$. We prove that the optimal Noether inequality $$ \mathrm{vol}(X) \ge \frac{4}{3}p_g(X) $$ holds if $p_g(X) \ge 16$ or if $X$ has a Gorenstein minimal model. Moreover,…

We establish the Noether inequality \[\textrm{Vol}(X)\geq \frac{4}{3}p_g(X)-\frac{10}{3}\] for all projective $3$-folds $X$ of general type with geometric genus $5\leq p_g(X)\leq 10$ where $\textrm{Vol}(X)$ is the canonical volume. This…

In this short note, we give a refinement of our previous work (arXiv:1803.05553) stating that for a projective $3$-fold $X$ of general type with either $p_g(X)\leq 4$ or $p_g(X)\geq 11$, $$\text{vol}(X)\geq…

We prove the optimal Noether-Severi inequality that $\mathrm{vol}(X) \ge \frac{4}{3} \chi(\omega_{X})$ for all smooth and irregular $3$-folds $X$ of general type over $\mathbb{C}$. For those $3$-folds $X$ attaining the equality, we…

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…

Let X be a smooth projective minimal 3-fold of general type. We prove the sharp inequality K^3_X >= (2 /3)(2p_g(X) - 5), an analogue of the classical Noether inequality for algebraic surfaces of general type

We prove the Conjecture of Catenese--Chen--Zhang: the inequality $K_X^3\geq \frac{4}{3}p_g(X)-\frac{10}{3}$ holds for all projective Gorenstein minimal 3-folds $X$ of general type.

Let $X$ be a Gorenstein minimal $3$-fold of general type. We prove the optimal inequality: $$K_X^{3}\geq \frac{4}{3}\chi(\omega_X)-2,$$ where $\chi(\omega_X)$ is the Euler-Poincar$\acute{\text{e}}$ characteristic of the dualizing sheaf…

1) We give a 3-dimensional analogue of M. Noether's inequality for canonically polarized threefolds: $K^3\ge 2(2p_g-5)/3$. This inequality is sharp by known examples of M. Kobayashi. 2) Given a minimal 3-fold $X$ of general type with…

Generalize Kobayashi's example for the Noether inequality in dimension three, we provide examples of n-folds of general type with small volumes.

In this paper, we study the moduli spaces of canonical threefolds with any prescribed geometric genus $p_g \ge 5$ which have the smallest possible canonical volume. This minimal volume is equal to the smallest half-integer that is larger…

For all nonsingular projective $n$-folds $V$ of general type, we prove the existence of Noether type inequalities in the following form: $$\text{vol}(V)\geq a_{n,k}h^0(\Omega_V^k)-b_{n,k}$$ where $0< k\leq n$, $a_{n,k}$ and $b_{n,k}$ are…

In this paper, we prove that the group $\mathrm{Aut}_\mathbb{Q}(X)$ of numerically trivial automorphisms are uniformly bounded for smooth projective threefolds $X$ of general type which either satisfy $q(X)\geq 3$ or have a Gorenstein…

We study canonically polarized Gorenstein $3$-folds with at most terminal singularities and satisfying $K_X^3=\frac 43p_g(X)-\frac {10}3$ and $p_g(X) \ge 7$. We characterize the canonical maps of such $3$-folds, describe a structure theorem…

Let $S$ be a minimal surface of general type with $p_g(S)=2$ and $K^2_S=1$, so called by a minimal $(1,2)$-surface. Then we obtain that the global log canonical threshold of the surface $S$ via $K_S$ is greater than equal to $\frac{1}{2}$.…

Let V be a smooth projective 3-fold of general type. Denote by $K^3$, a rational number, the self-intersection of the canonical sheaf of any minimal model of V. One defines $K^3$ as the canonical volume of $V$. Assume $p_g\ge 2$. We show…

Let $X$ be a complex nonsingular projective 3-fold of general type. We show that there are positive constants $c$, $c'$ and $m_1$ such that $\chi (\omega _X)\geq -c\Vol (X)$ and $P_m(X)\geq c'm^3\Vol (X)$ for all $m\geq m_1$.

Let $V$ be a complex nonsingular projective 3-fold of general type. We prove $P_{12}(V)>0$ and $P_{24}(V)>1$ (which answers an open problem of J. Kollar and S. Mori). We also prove that the canonical volume has an universal lower bound…

Let $V$ be a smooth projective 3-fold of general type. Denote by $K^{3}$, a rational number, the self-intersection of the canonical sheaf of any minimal model of $V$. One defines $K^{3}$ as a canonical volume of $V$. The paper is devoted to…
