Relative canonical model


In mathematics, the relative canonical model of a singular variety is a particular canonical variety that maps to , which simplifies the structure. The precise definition is:

If is a resolution define the adjunction sequence to be the sequence of subsheaves if is invertible where is the higher adjunction ideal. Problem. Is finitely generated? If this is true then is called the relative canonical model of , or the canonical blow-up of .
