Title

Ascending chain condition for F-pure thresholds

Abstract

For a germ of a variety in positive characteristic and a non-zero ideal sheaf on the variety, we can define the F-pure threshold of the ideal by using Frobenius morphisms, which measures the singularities of the pair. In this talk, I will show that the set of all F-pure thresholds on a fixed strongly F-regular germ satisfies the ascending chain condition. This is a positive characteristic analogue of the “ascending chain condition for log canonical thresholds” in characteristic 0, which was recently proved by Hacon, McKernan, and Xu.
