In this article, we propose a boundedness conjecture for the regional fundamental group of klt singularities. We prove that this boundedness conjecture, the Zariski closedness of the diminished base locus of $K_X$, and an upper bound for…

Let $f:X\to U$ be a projective morphism of normal varieties and $(X,\Delta)$ a dlt pair. We prove that if there is an open set $U^0\subset U$, such that $(X,\Delta)\times_U U^0$ has a good minimal model over $U^0$ and the images of all the…

We discuss the relationship among various conjectures in the minimal model theory including the finite generation conjecture of the log canonical rings and the abundance conjecture. In particular, we show that the finite generation…

We introduce linearly decomposable (LD) generalized pairs, which serve as a workable substitute for rational decompositions in the non-NQC setting. Using LD generalized pairs, together with a refinement of special termination and…

If $(X, \mcF, \D)$ is a projective rank two foliated log canonical triple such that $(X,B)$ is klt for some $0 \leq B \leq \D$, we show that we can run a $(K_\mcF +\Delta)$-MMP and any such MMP terminates with either a minimal model or Mori…

We construct a surface with log terminal singularities and ample canonical class that has $K_X^2=1/48 983$ and a log canonical pair $(X,B)$ with a nonempty reduced divisor $B$ and ample $K_X+B$ that has $(K_X+B)^2 = 1/462$. Both examples…

We discuss the birational geometry of singular surfaces in positive characteristic. More precisely, we establish the minimal model program and the abundance theorem for Q-factorial surfaces and for log canonical surfaces. Moreover, in the…

Let $(X,B)$ be a projective log canonical pair such that $B$ is a $\Q$-divisor, and that there is a surjective morphism $f\colon X\to Z$ onto a normal variety $Z$ satisfying: $K_X+B\sim_\Q f^*M$ for some $\Q$-divisor $M$, and the augmented…

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 prove that many of the results of the LMMP hold for $3$-folds over fields of characteristic $p>5$ which are not necessarily perfect. In particular, the existence of flips, the cone theorem, the contraction theorem for birational extremal…

Given an NQC log canonical generalized pair $(X,B+M)$ whose underlying variety $X$ is not necessarily $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial, we show that one may run a $(K_X+B+M)$-MMP with scaling of an ample divisor which terminates, provided that…

In this article, we use the cone of nef curves to study minimal log discrepancies. The first result is an improvement of the nef cone theorem in the case of log Calabi-Yau dlt pairs. Then, we prove that the ascending chain condition for…

It is known that the set of log canonical thresholds (lcts) on any varieties with fixed dimension satisfies the ascending chain condition. Inspired by the foliated minimal model program, it is intriguing to study the foliated version of…

We prove a stronger version of a termination theorem appeared in the paper "On existence of log minimal models II". We essentially just get rid of the redundant assumptions so the proof is almost the same as in there. However, we give a…
