We prove Grauert-Riemenschneider-type vanishing theorems for excellent dlt threefolds pairs whose closed points have perfect residue fields of positive characteristic $p>5$. Then we discuss applications to dlt singularities and to Mori fiber spaces of threefolds.
We construct a klt del Pezzo surface in characteristic three violating the Kawamata-Viehweg vanishing theorem. As a consequence we show that there exists a Kawamata log terminal threefold singularity which is not Cohen-Macaulay in characteristic three.
In this note we show a Kawamata-Viehweg vanishing theorem for pl-contractions on threefolds in characteristic $p>5$. We deduce several applications for klt threefolds: the vanishing of higher direct images of structure sheaves of Mori fibre spaces, Kollár's result on local vanishing and the rationality of the singularities of the base of a conic bundle.
In this article we present a refinement of the base point free theorem for threefolds in positive characteristic. If $L$ is a nef Cartier divisor of numerical dimension at least one on a projective Kawamata log terminal threefold $(X,Δ)$ over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p \gg 0$ such that $L-(K_X+Δ)$ is big and nef, then we show that the linear system $|mL|$ is base point free for all sufficiently large integer $m>0$.
We establish two results on three-dimensional del Pezzo fibrations in positive characteristic. First, we give an explicit bound for torsion index of relatively torsion line bundles. Second, we show the existence of purely inseparable sections with explicit bounded degree. To prove these results, we study log del Pezzo surfaces defined over imperfect fields.
In this note we show, building on a recent work of Totaro, that for every prime number $p \geq 3$ there exists a purely log terminal pair $(Z,S)$ of dimension $2p+2$ whose plt centre $S$ is not normal.
