A generalized non-vanishing theorem on surfaces

Algebraic Geometry 2024-10-22 v1

Abstract

We show that the anti-canonical bundle of any Q\mathbb Q-factorial surface is numerically effective if and only if it is pseudo-effective. To prove this, we establish a numerical non-vanishing theorem for surfaces polarized with pseudo-effective divisors. The latter answers a question of C. Fontanari.
