In this paper, I review the section 8 of V.V.Shokurov's paper '3-fold log flips'.
We prove the existence of flips in dimension n, contingent on the termination of real flips in dimension n-1.
The aim of these notes is to explain main ideas of the theory of complements. Basically we will follow Shokurov's work alg-geom/9711024.
Following Shokurov's ideas, we give a short proof of the following klt version of his result: termination of terminal log flips in dimension d implies that any klt pair of dimension d has a log minimal model or a Mori fibre space. Thus, in…
We give an upper bound for the minimal discrepancies of hypersurface singularities. As an application, we show that Shokurov's conjecture is true for log-terminal threefolds.
We prove Shokurov's global index conjecture for foliations in dimension at most three. This answers a question of the first author, Meng, and Xie in dimension three. The main result of this paper is partially obtained by generative AI,…
We piece together ingredients, which are well known and documented in the literature, into a new proof of the existence of semistable 3-fold flips
We prove a conjecture of V. V. Shokurov which in particular implies that the fibers of a resolution of a variety with divisorial log terminal singularities are rationally chain connected.
In this paper, we prove the termination of 4-fold semi-stable log flips under the assumption that there always exist 4-fold (semi-stable) log flips.
We describe three-dimensional terminal toric flips. We obtain the complete local description of three-dimensional terminal toric flips.

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…
Several progresses have been done very recently on models for the dynamics of one or more vortex filaments in three-dimensional fluids. In this article we survey the recent and previous results in this topic. We also present some new…

We associate to triangulations of infinite type surface a type of flip graph where simultaneous flips are allowed. Our main focus is on understanding exactly when two triangulations can be related by a sequence of flips. A consequence of…
This article is a survey of recent results about scalar curvature and contractible open $3$-manifolds. It is dedicated to the memory of Professor S. S. Chern.
We will prove the following results for $3$-fold pairs $(X,B)$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>5$: log flips exist for $\Q$-factorial dlt pairs $(X,B)$; log minimal models exist for projective klt pairs $(X,B)$…
We introduce a class of singular log schemes in three dimensions and conjecture that log schemes in this class admit log crepant log resolutions. We provide examples as evidence and relate this conjecture to the conjecture made in [4] and…
We prove that one can run the log minimal model program for log canonical $3$-fold pairs in characteristic $p>5$. In particular we prove the Cone Theorem, Contraction Theorem, the existence of flips and the existence of log minimal models…
