We prove a conjecture due to V.V. Shokurov on the boundedness of $ε$-log canonical complements on surfaces. As an application we give a new proof to the boundedness of weak log Fano surfaces.
In this paper, we prove the boundedness of foliated surfaces $(X,\mathscr{F})$ which are minimal partial du Val resolutions of canonical models $(X_c,\mathscr{F}_c)$ of general type. For applications, we show the boundedness of non-cusp singularities on canonical models of foliated surfaces of general type and the effective generation on the complement of the cusp singularities.
We prove Weak Borisov--Alexeev--Borisov Conjecture in dimension three which states that the anti-canonical volume of an $ε$-klt log Fano pair of dimension three is bounded from above.
We show the existence of $n$-complements for generalized pairs with additional Diophantine approximation properties when the coefficients of boundaries belong to a DCC set.
We show that the number of deformation types of canonically polarized manifolds over an arbitrary variety with proper singular locus is finite, and that this number is uniformly bounded in any finite type family of base varieties. As a corollary we show that a direct generalization of the geometric version of Shafarevich's original conjecture holds for infinitesimally rigid families of canonically polarized varieties.
Let $X$ be a Gorenstein minimal projective 3-fold with at worst locally factorial terminal singularities. Suppose the canonical map is of fiber type. Denote by $F$ a smooth model of a generic irreducible component in fibers of the canonical map of $X$ and so $F$ is a smooth curve or a smooth surface. The main result of the paper is that there is a computable constant $K$ (independent of $X$) such that $g(F)\leq 647$ or $p_g(F)\leq 38$ whenever $p_g(X)\geq K$. The method heavily relies on both a Noether type of inequality and a Miyaoka-Yau inequality and that is the reason we only treat a Goren…
We answer an open question concerning the boundedness of canonical fiber spaces in high dimensions and prove the following: for any set of integers $n\geq 3$, $0<d<n$ and $N>0$, there exists a nonsingular projective $n$-fold $X$ of general type so that $X$ is canonically fibred by $d$-dimensional varieties $F$ with $p_g(F)\geq N$. This disproves the desired boundedness parallel to Beauville's boundedness theorem in the surface case.
We show the existence of $(ε,n)$-complements for $(ε,\Rr)$-complementary projective generalized pairs of Fano type $(X,B+M)$ when either the coefficients of $B$ and $μ_j$ belong to a finite set or the coefficients of $B$ belong to a DCC set and $M'\equiv 0$, where $M'=\sumμ_jM_j'$ and $M_j'$ are b-Cartier nef divisors.
In this paper, we generalise the theory of complements to log canonical log fano varieties and prove boundedness of complements for them in dimension less than or equal to 3. We also prove some boundedness results for the canonical index of sdlt log Calabi-Yau varieties in dimension 2.
In this paper, we study the behavior of the sets of volumes of the form $\mathrm{vol}(X,K_X+B+M)$, where $(X,B)$ is a log canonical pair, and $M$ is a nef $\mathbb{R}$-divisor. After a first analysis of some general properties, we focus on the case when $M$ is $\mathbb{Q}$-Cartier with given Cartier index, and $B$ has coefficients in a given DCC set. First, we show that such sets of volumes satisfy the DCC property in the case of surfaces. Once this is established, we show that surface pairs with given volume and for which $K_X+B+M$ is ample form a log bounded family. These generalize results …
We study log canonical thresholds (also called global log canonical threshold or $α$-invariant) of $\mathbb{R}$-linear systems. We prove existence of positive lower bounds in different settings, in particular, proving a conjecture of Ambro. We then show that the Borisov-Alexeev-Borisov conjecture holds, that is, given a natural number $d$ and a positive real number $ε$, the set of Fano varieties of dimension $d$ with $ε$-log canonical singularities forms a bounded family. This implies that birational automorphism groups of rationally connected varieties are Jordan which in particular answers a…
In this article we prove the following version of the Weak-BAB conjecture for $3$-folds in char $p>5$: Fix a DCC set $I\subset [0, 1)$ and an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>5$. Let $\mathfrak{D}$ be a collection of klt pairs $(X, Δ)$ satisfying the following properties: (1) $X$ is a projective $3$-fold, (2) $Δ$ is an $\mathbb{R}$-divisor with coefficients in $I$, (3) $K_X+Δ\equiv 0$, and (4) $-K_X$ is ample. Then the set $\{\mbox{vol}_X(-K_X) \ | \ (X, Δ)\in\mathfrak{D}\mbox{ for some }Δ\}$ is bounded from above.
We show the birational boundedness of anti-canonical irreducible hypersurfaces which form 3-fold plt pairs. We also treat a collection of Du Val K3 surfaces which is birationally bounded but unbounded.
We show some inductive statements for the index conjecture for log canonical Calabi-Yau pairs. Using it, we show that boundedness of log canonical index for log canonical Calabi Yau pairs with rational DCC coefficients in dimension 3. We also show boundedness of log canonical index for klt log Calabi-Yau pairs in dimension 4 with $B\neq 0$.
Let $X$ be a terminal weak $\bQ$-Fano threefold. We prove that $P_{-6}(X)>0$ and $P_{-8}(X)>1$. We also prove that the anti-canonical volume has a universal lower bound $-K_X^3 \geq 1/330$. This lower bound is optimal.
The main result of this note is an effective uniform bound for the number of deformation types of certain nonisotrivial families of canonically polarized manifolds. It extends the author's earlier such bound for the classical Shafarevich Conjecture over function fields to the case of higher dimensional fibers, but without the disadvantageous iterated use of Chow or Hilbert varieties that was the core of the proofs in the earlier approaches.
A cone singularity is a normal affine variety $X$ with an effective one-dimensional torus action with a unique fixed point $x\in X$ which lies in the closure of any orbit of the $k^*$-action. In this article, we prove a boundedness theorem for cone singularities in terms of their dimension, singularities, and isotropies. Given $d$ and $N$ two positive integers and $ε$ a positive real number, we prove that the class of $d$-dimensional $ε$-log canonical cone singularities with isotropies bounded by $N$ forms a bounded family.
The article has two parts. The first part is devoted to proving a singular version of the logarithmic Kodaira-Akizuki-Nakano vanishing theorem of Esnault and Viehweg. This is then used to prove other vanishing theorems. In the second part these vanishing theorems are used to prove an Arakelov-Parshin type boundedness result for families of canonically polarized varieties with rational Gorenstein singularities.
We prove boundedness of global strong $(δ,n)$-complements for generalized $ε$-log canonical pairs of Fano type. We also prove some partial results towards boundedness of local strong $(δ,n)$-complements for semi-stable morphisms. As applications, we prove an effective generalized canonical bundle formula for generalized klt pairs and an effective generalized adjunction formula for exceptional generalized log canonical centers. Moreover, we prove that the existence of strong $(δ,n)$-complements implies a conjecture due to M$^{\rm c}$Kernan concerning the singularities of the base of a Mori fibe…
We prove birational boundedness results on complete intersections with trivial canonical class of base point free divisors in (some version of) Fano varieties. Our results imply in particular that Batyrev-Borisov toric construction produces only a bounded set of Hodge numbers in any given dimension, even as the codimension is allowed to grow.
We show that $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties of fixed dimension with anti-canonical degrees and alpha-invariants bounded from below form a bounded family. As a corollary, K-semistable $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties of fixed dimension with anti-canonical degrees bounded from below form a bounded family.
In this article we prove the following boundedness result: Fix a DCC set $I\subset [0, 1]$. Let $\mathfrak{D}$ be the set of all log pairs $(X, Δ)$ satisfying the following properties: (i) $X$ is a projective surface defined over an algebraically closed field, (ii) $(X, Δ)$ is log canonical and the coefficients of $Δ$ are in $I$, and (iii) $K_X+Δ$ is big. Then there is a positive integer $N=N(I)$ depending only on the set $I$ such that the linear system $|\lceil m(K_X+Δ)\rceil|$ defines a birational map onto its image for all $m\geq N$ and $(X, Δ)\in\mathfrak{D}$
We prove the boundedness of complements modulo two conjectures: Borisov-Alexeev conjecture and effective adjunction for fibre spaces. We discuss the last conjecture and prove it in two particular cases.
We expand the theory of log canonical $3$-fold complements. We prove that if $X\rightarrow T$ is a $3$-dimensional contraction of log Calabi-Yau type, then we can find $B\geq 0$ on $X$ for which $(X,B)$ is log canonical and $n(K_X+B)\sim_T 0$, where $n$ is an uniform natural number. This means that every $3$-fold of log Calabi-Yau type can be turned into a log Calabi-Yau pair in an effective way.
Let $ε, C$ be two positive real numbers, and $\mathcal C \subset \mathbb R$ be a DCC (descending chain condition) set. Let $(X, B = \sum b_j B_j)$ denote a projective surface with an $\mathbb R$-divisor. Then (1) The class $\{X\}$ of surfaces for which there exists a divisor $B$ such that $(X,B)$ is $ε$-log terminal and $-(K_X + B)$ is nef (excluding only those for which at the same time $K_X\equiv 0$, $B=0$, and $X$ has at worst Du Val singularities), is bounded. (2) The set $\{(K_X + B)^2\}$ of squares for the semi log canonical pairs $(X, B)$ with ample $K_X + B$ and $b_j \in \mathcal C$, i…
We show that the number of marked minimal models of an n-dimensional smooth complex projective variety of general type can be bounded in terms of its volume, and, if n=3, also in terms of its Betti numbers. For an n-dimensional projective klt pair (X,D) with $K_X+D$ big, we show more generally that the number of its weak log canonical models can be bounded in terms of the coefficients of D and the volume of $K_X+D$. We further show that all n-dimensional projective klt pairs (X,D), such that $K_X+D$ is big and nef of fixed volume and such that the coefficients of D are contained in a given DCC…
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 canonical part and the maximal ideal to some power. We prove the reduced assertion when the log canonical threshold of the maximal ideal is either at most one-half or at least one.
The main result of the paper is a boundedness for $n$-complements on algebraic surfaces. In addition, applications of this theorem to a classification of log Del Pezzo surfaces and of birational contractions for 3-folds are formulated.

We introduce orbifold Euler numbers for normal surfaces with Q-divisors. These numbers behave multiplicatively under finite maps and in the log canonical case we prove that they satisfy the Bogomolov-Miyaoka-Yau type inequality. As a corollary we prove effective versions of Bogomolov's result on boundedness of rational curves in some surfaces of general type. Finally, we give some applications to singularities of plane curves.
We prove that the ACC conjecture for minimal log discrepancies holds for threefolds in $[1-δ,+\infty)$, where $δ>0$ only depends on the coefficient set. We also study Reid's general elephant for pairs, and show Shokurov's conjecture on the existence of $(ε,n)$-complements for threefolds for any $ε\geq 1$. As a key important step, we prove the uniform boundedness of divisors computing minimal log discrepancies for terminal threefolds. We show the ACC for threefold canonical thresholds, and that the set of accumulation points of threefold canonical thresholds is equal to $\{0\}\cup\{\frac{1}{n}\…
