Title	Pluri-canonical map in positive characteristic
Abstract	For a nonsingular projective variety X of general type, it’s known that \|mK_X\| induces a birational map for any m sufficiently large. It’s an important problem to bound this integer m. In this talk, we will show that, in positive characteristic, \|4K_X\| is birational providing that X has maximal Albanese dimension.
