Definition of canonical pair

Let $(X,D)$ be a pair and $f:Y\rightarrow X$ a log resolution. Write $$ K_Y + \widetilde{D} = f^{*}(K_X) + \sum_{i}a_iE_i $$ where $\widetilde{D}$ is the strict transform of $D$. I found the following ...

Surfaces with rational double points

Let $S\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$ a surface fibered in conics over a field. Assume that $S$ has a single non reduced fiber $F$ with two points of type $A_1$ on it. Blowing-up the two points and ...

Smooth complete intersections

Let $X_{2,3}\subset\mathbb{P}^n$, with $n\geq 5$, be a complete intersection of a quadric $X_2$ and a cubic $X_3$ containing a $2$-plane $H$. Assume $X_2$ and $X_3$ to be general among the ...

Singularities of surfaces fibered in rational curves

Let $S$ be a projective surface with a morphism $S\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^1$ whose fibers are either smooth $\mathbb{P}^1$'s or the union of two smooth $\mathbb{P}^1$'s intersecting in a point. ...

Blowing-up a non reduced fiber

Let $X\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^2$ be a smooth conic bundle with a non reduced fiber $F$, and $\widetilde{X}$ the blow-up of $X$ along $F$ with exceptional divisor $F\times\mathbb{P}^1$. I expect $\...

Divisorial contractions and singularities

I have a smooth $6$-fold $X\subset\mathbb{P}^n$ and a divisor $D\subset X$ cut out by a quadratic polynomial. I know that $D$ in singular along a smooth $3$-fold $Y\subset X$, and that if $Z$ is the ...

Singularities of $3$-folds

Let $X,Y,Z$ be projective $3$-folds. Assume that $Y$ is smooth and $Z$ is smooth and Fano. Moreover, assume that there is a generically finite morphism $f:Y\rightarrow Z$ admitting a factorization $f=...
