Title

Bounding volumes of singular Fano three folds

Abstract

Mildly singular Fano varieties of Picard number one are important objects to study from the minimal model program point of view. For the set of three dimensional (\epsilon)-klt log (\mathbb Q)-Fano pairs ((X,\Delta)) of Picard number one, we show that there is a volume bound (-(K_X+\Delta)^3\leq M(3,\epsilon)) depending only (\epsilon). This result is related to the Borisov-Alexeev-Borisov conjecture which asserts boundedness of the set of n-dimensional (\epsilon)-klt log (\mathbb Q)-Fano varieties.
