Title: Existence of the minimal model program for log canonical generalized pairs
Abstract: In this talk, I will discuss joint work with Zhengyu Hu establishing the existence of the minimal model program for arbitrary log canonical generalized pairs. The key step is to establish the existence of flips in full generality, without assuming the klt condition, the NQC condition, or Q-factoriality. Combined with the cone and contraction theorems, this yields the existence of the minimal model program in this setting. This work completes a series of results on generalized pairs, following earlier joint works of myself with Hacon, Xie, and Chen–Han–Xie on the Q-factorial or NQC cases. I will explain the main theorem, the main ideas of the proof — in particular the introduction of a new class of generalized pairs, namely LD generalized pairs — and briefly discuss some future directions.

Title: Kawaguchi-Silverman conjecture for int-amplified endomorphism
Abstract: Let $f$ be a surjective endomorphism of a smooth projective variety $X$ over a number field. The Kawaguchi-Silverman conjecture asserts that given a closed point $x$ whose forward orbit is Zariski dense in $X$, the arithmetic degree of $f$ at $x$ coincides with the first dynamical degree of $f$. In this talk, based on the previous work of Meng-Zhang, I would like to verify this conjecture when $f$ has a dominant topological degree (or equivalently, $f$ is int-amplified). The key step is to show that the pathological case when $f$ has totally invariant ramifications does not occur. This is based on a joint work with Sheng Meng.

Title: Fundamental groups of compact Kähler varieties with nef anti-log canonical divisor
Abstract: It is proved by M. Păun (1997, 2017) that the fundamental group of a compact Kähler manifold is almost Abelian if its anti-canonical bundle is nef, and it is expected that similar results hold for mildly singular Kähler varieties. In this talk, I will explain how we apply the recent development in the theory of Kähler RCD spaces to study this problem. This is a joint work with Xin Fu, Bin Guo and Jian Song.

Title: Approaches to the Kawaguchi-Silverman conjecture
Abstract: Kawaguchi and Silverman proposed a conjecture about arithmetic and dynamical degrees of dominant rational self-maps defined over number fields. There are several approaches to this conjecture. I will give an overview, based on the joint work with Yohsuke Matsuzawa, and with Sheng Meng and Tianle Yang.
