Special termination and reduction to pl flips
Osamu Fujino · Oxford University Press eBooks · 2007
This chapter provides a detailed treatment of the reduction of klt flips to pl flips in dimension n assuming minimal models in dimension n-1. This includes special termination, that is, the termination of flips ‘near the reduced part of the boundary’. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the minimal model program for non Q-factorial varieties.
