Title

On families of curves over surfaces and geography of irregular 3-folds

Abstract

One of the fundamental invariants for families of curves is the slope. In this talk, I will state a slope inequality for families of curves over surfaces. In fact, it is closely related to the “slope” in the geography of irregular varieties. I will also introduce this notion and present some recent results for irregular 3-folds of general type.
