This paper is a gentle introduction to the theory of quasi-log varieties by Ambro. We explain the fundamental theorems for the log minimal model program for log canonical pairs. More precisely, we give a proof of the base point free theorem…

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…

We discuss the relative log minimal model theory for log surfaces in the analytic setting. More precisely, we show that the minimal model program, the abundance theorem, and the finite generation of log canonical rings hold for log pairs of…

We survey some recent topics on singularities, with a focus on their connection to the minimal model program. This includes the construction and properties of dual complexes, the proof of the ACC conjecture for log canonical thresholds and…

In this paper we give a new point of view for optimizing the definitions related to the study of singularities of normal varieties, introduced in [dFH09] and further studied in [Urb12a] and [Urb12b], in relation to the Minimal Model…

We prove that the class of log canonical rational singularities is closed under the basic operations of the minimal model program. We also give some supplementary results on the minimal model program for log canonical surfaces.

1) Assuming log Minimal Model Conjecture, we give a construction of a complete moduli space of stable log pairs of arbitrary dimension generalizing directly the space M_{g,n} of pointed stable curves. Each stable pair has semi log canonical…

This is a survey of some recent developments in the study of singularities related to the classification theory of algebraic varieties. In particular, the definition and basic properties of Du Bois singularities and their connections to the…

We describe the foundation of the log minimal model program for log canonical pairs according to Ambro's idea. We generalize Koll\'ar's vanishing and torsion-free theorems for embedded simple normal crossing pairs. Then we prove the cone…

We discuss the log minimal model theory for log surfaces. We show that the log minimal model program, the finite generation of log canonical rings, and the log abundance theorem for log surfaces hold true under assumptions weaker than the…

Generalizing work of Smith and Hara, we give a new characterization of log-terminal singularities for finitely generated algebras over $\mathbb C$, in terms of purity properties of ultraproducts of characteristic $p$ Frobenii. The first…

We give a method to investigate isolated log canonical singularities with index one which are not log terminal. Our method depends on the minimal model program. One of the main purposes is to prove that our invariant coincides with Ishii's…

We show that minimal models of log canonical pairs exist, assuming the existence of minimal models of smooth varieties.

In the present work we classify the relatively minimal 3-dimensional quasihomogeneous complex projective varieties under the assumption that the automorphism group is not solvable. By relatively minimal we understand varieties X having at…

We prove the existence of pl-flips.

In a previous work, we described the Minimal Model Program in the family of $\Qbb$-Gorenstein projective horospherical varieties, by studying certain continuous changes of moment polytopes of polarized horospherical varieties. Here, we…

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…

We introduce the class of weakly log canonical singularities, a natural generalization of semi-log canonical singularities. Toric varieties (associated to toric face rings, possibly non-normal or reducible) which have weakly (semi-) log…

We study logarithmic jet schemes of a log scheme and generalize a theorem of M. Mustata from the case of ordinary jet schemes to the logarithmic case. If X is a normal local complete intersection log variety, then X has canonical…

We translate the equivariant decomposition theorem (in the case of a proper morphism of toric varieties) in to the language of combinatorially defined ``shifted minimal complexes''.
