We prove the termination of flips for 4-dimensional pseudo-effective NQC log canonical generalized pairs. As main ingredients, we verify the termination of flips for 3-dimensional NQC log canonical generalized pairs, and show that the…
Let $(X/Z,B+A)$ be a $\Q$-factorial dlt pair where $B,A\ge 0$ are $\Q$-divisors and $K_X+B+A\sim_\Q 0/Z$. We prove that any LMMP$/Z$ on $K_X+B$ with scaling of an ample$/Z$ divisor terminates with a good log minimal model or a Mori fibre…
Given a logarithmic $1$-form on the snc locus of a log canonical surface pair $(X, D)$ over a perfect field of characteristic $p \ge 7$, we show that it extends with at worst logarithmic poles to any resolution of singularities. We also…
We prove that the lengths of extremal rays of log canonical Fano surfaces with Picard number one satisfy the ascending chain condition. This confirms the 2-dimensional case of a conjecture stated by Fujino and Ishitsuka
We study a pair consisting of a smooth variety over a field of positive characteristic and a multi-ideal with a real exponent. We prove the finiteness of the set of minimal log discrepancies for a fixed exponent if the dimension is less…
In this article we prove a local implication of boundedness of Fano varieties. More precisely, we prove that $d$-dimensional $a$-log canonical singularities, with standard coefficients, which admit an $\epsilon$-plt blow-up have minimal log…
In this paper, we prove that the set of all $F$-pure thresholds of ideals with fixed embedding dimension satisfies the ascending chain condition. As a corollary, given an integer $d$, we verify the ascending chain condition for the set of…
We prove the termination of 4-fold log flips for klt pairs of Kodaira dimension $\kappa\ge 2$.
We study log canonical thresholds (also called global log canonical threshold or $\alpha$-invariant) of $\mathbb{R}$-linear systems. We prove existence of positive lower bounds in different settings, in particular, proving a conjecture of…
We systematically introduce and study a new type of singularities, namely, exceptionally non-canonical (enc) singularities. This class of singularities plays an important role in the study of many questions in birational geometry, and has…
In this paper we show that the global (log) canonical threshold of $d$-sheeted covers of the $M$-dimensional projective space of index 1, where $d\geqslant 4$, is equal to one for almost all families (except for a finite set). The varieties…
We use intersection theory, degeneration techniques and jet schemes to study log canonical thresholds. Our first result gives a lower bound for the log canonical threshold of a pair in terms of the log canonical threshold of the image by a…
In this paper we show that the set of accumulation points of generalized log canonical thresholds for certain DCC sets comes from the set of generalized log canonical thresholds of dimension $1$ less of the same DCC sets.
In this paper, we study the singularities of a pair (X,Y) in arbitrary characteristic via jet schemes. For a smooth variety X in characteristic 0, Ein, Lazarsfeld and Mustata showed that there is a correspondence between irreducible closed…
We generalize the formula for the log canonical threshold(LCT) of plane curves over the complex numbers to arbitrary characteristics. Our proof relies purely on valuation theory, instead of on the theory of $D$-modules.
On smooth threefolds, the ACC for minimal log discrepancies is equivalent to the boundedness of the log discrepancy of some divisor which computes the minimal log discrepancy. We reduce it to the case when the boundary is the product of a…
We prove that if Y is a hypersurface of degree d in P^n with isolated singularities, then the log canonical threshold of (P^n,Y) is at least min{n/d,1}. Moreover, if d is at least n+1, then we have equality if and only if Y is the…
We prove the special termination for log canonical pairs and its generalisation in the context of generalised pairs.
We generalize the rationality theorem of the accumulation points of log canonical thresholds which was proved by Hacon, M\textsuperscript{c}Kernan, and Xu. Further, we apply the rationality to the ACC problem on the minimal log…
We show that the set of threefold canonical thresholds satisfies the ascending chain condition. Moreover, we derive that threefold canonical thresholds in the interval $ (\frac{1}{2}, 1)$ consists of $ \{ \frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{n}\}_{n \ge 3}…
