In this paper, we prove a special case of Campana--Peternell's conjecture in dimension 4. Specifically, we show that a projective smooth fourfold $X$ with $c^2_1(X)\cdot c_2(X)\neq 0$ and strictly nef anti-canonical divisor $-K_X$ is a Fano…
Let $X$ be a normal projective variety with only klt singularities, and $L_X$ a strictly nef $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor on $X$. In this paper, we study the singular version of Serrano's conjecture, i.e., the ampleness of $K_X+t L_X$ for…
In this paper, we prove the ampleness conjecture and Serrano's conjecture for strictly nef divisors on K-trivial fourfolds. Specifically, we show that any strictly nef divisors on projective fourfolds with trivial canonical bundle and…
In this short note, we consider the conjecture that the log canonical divisor (resp. the anti-log canonical divisor) $K_X + \Delta$ (resp. $-(K_X + \Delta)$) on a pair $(X, \Delta)$ consisting of a complex projective manifold $X$ and a…
Serrrano's Conjecture says that if $L$ is a strictly nef line bundle on a smooth projective variety $X$, then $K_X+tL$ is ample for $ t > dim X+1$. In this paper I will prove a few cases of this conjecture. I will also prove a generalized…
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…
Motivated by work of Zhang from the early `90s, Medvedev and Scanlon formulated the following conjecture. Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ and let $X$ be a quasiprojective variety defined over $K$ endowed with…
For a birational log Fano contraction, it is conjectured an inequality between the dimension of its exceptional locus and the minimal log discrepancy over the locus. The conjecture follows from the existence of the flip for the contraction…
Let X be a projective manifold of dimension n. Beltrametti and Sommese conjectured that if A is an ample divisor such that $K_X+(n-1)A$ is nef, then $K_X+(n-1)A$ has non-zero global sections. We prove a weak version of this conjecture in…
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…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective surface over the complex number field and let $L$ be a nef-big divisor on $X$. Here we consider the following conjecture; If the Kodaira dimension $\kappa(X)\geq 0$, then $K_{X}L\geq 2q(X)-4$, where $q(X)$ is…
Let X be a complex Fano manifold of dimension n. Let s(X) be the sum of l(R)-1 for all the extremal rays of X, the edges of the cone NE(X) of curves of X, where l(R) denotes the minimum of (-K_X \cdot C) for all rational curves C whose…
Let $(X,\Delta)$ be a log canonical pair over $\mathbb{C}$ with $X$ a normal projective variety, $\Delta$ an effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor, and $K_X+\Delta$ nef. We give a non-vanishing criterion for $K_X+\Delta$ in dimension $n$ with $X$…
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 show that the non-vanishing conjecture implies the abundance conjecture when $\nu\leq 1$. We also prove the abundance conjecture in dimension $\leq 5$ when $\kappa\geq 0$ and $\nu\leq 1$ unconditionally.
The nonvanishing conjecture for projective log canonical pairs plays a key role in the minimal model program of higher dimensional algebraic geometry. The numerical nonvanishing conjecture considered in this paper is a weaker version of the…
Let $X$ be a normal projective threefold with mild singularities, and $L_X$ a strictly nef $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor on $X$. First, we show the ampleness of $K_X+tL_X$ with sufficiently large $t$ if either the Kodaira dimension $\kappa(X)\neq 0$…
In this paper, we prove the non-vanishing and some special cases of the abundance for log canonical threefold pairs over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p > 3$. More precisely, we prove that if $(X,B)$ be a projective…
We prove that Seshadri constants of some ample divisors are bigger than 1 on smooth threefolds whose anticanonical bundle is nef or on Fano varieties of small coindice. The main tools are (some known cases of) the Kawamata's effective…
We construct klt projective varieties with ample canonical class and the smallest known volume. We also find exceptional klt Fano varieties with the smallest known anticanonical volume. We conjecture that our examples have the smallest…
