Title

Recent progress on the ACC conjecture for minimal log discrepancies

Abstract

The ACC conjecture for minimal log discrepancies (mlds) is one of the core conjectures in birational geometry, and is expected to play a crucial role in the proof of termination of flips, one of the most important conjectures of the minimal model program. In this talk, I will survey some of my recent progress on the ACC conjecture for mlds. Part of the talk is joint works with Jingjun Han, V. V. Shokurov, and Liudan Xiao.
