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…

We prove the existence of flips in dimension n, contingent on the termination of real flips in dimension n-1.

We study relations between the property of being log abundant for lc pairs and the termination of log MMP with scaling. We prove that any log MMP with scaling of an ample divisor starting with a projective dlt pair contains only finitely…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>5$. We show the existence of minimal models for pseudo-effective NQC lc generalized pairs in dimension three over $\mathbb{K}$. As a consequence, we prove the…

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 prove the $W\mathcal{O}$-rationality of klt threefolds and the rational chain connectedness of klt Fano threefolds over a perfect field of characteristic $p>5$. As a consequence, any klt Fano threefold over a finite field has a rational…

We showed that the strong Sarkisov Program of dimension $d$ can be derived from termination of specific log flips in dimension $\leq d-1$. As a corollary, we show that the strong Sarkisov Program holds in dimension 4. Additionally, we prove…

In this paper, we discuss a proof of existence of log minimal models or Mori fibre spaces for klt pairs $(X/Z,B)$ with $B$ big$/Z$. This then implies existence of klt log flips, finite generation of klt log canonical rings, and most of the…

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…

We prove existence of flips, special termination, the base point free theorem and, in the case of log general type, the existence of minimal models for F-dlt foliated pairs of co-rank one on a $\mathbb Q$-factorial projective threefold. As…

Let $(X,B)$ be a log canonical pair over a normal variety $Z$ with maximal Albanese dimension. If $K_X+B$ is relatively abundant over $Z$ (for example, $K_X+B$ is relatively big over $Z$), then we prove that $K_X+B$ is abundant. In…
