Abstract We prove Grauert–Riemenschneider–type vanishing theorems for excellent divisiorally log terminal 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 three-folds.

An analogue of adjoint ideals and PLT singularities in mixed characteristic
We use the framework of perfectoid big Cohen-Macaulay (BCM) algebras to define a class of singularities for pairs in mixed characteristic, which we call purely BCM-regular singularities, and a corresponding adjoint ideal. We prove that these satisfy adjunction and inversion of adjunction with respect to the notion of BCM-regularity and the BCM test ideal defined by the first two authors. We compare them with the existing equal characteristic purely log terminal (PLT) and purely F F -regular singularities and adjoint ideals. As an application, we obtain a uniform version of the Briançon-Skoda theorem in mixed characteristic. We also use our theory to prove that two-dimensional Kawamata log terminal singularities are BCM-regular if the residue characteristic p > 5 p>5 , which implies an inversion of adjunction for three-dimensional PLT pairs of residue characteristic p > 5 p>5 . In particular, divisorial centers of PLT pairs in dimension three are normal when p > 5 p > 5 . Furthermore, in Appendix A we provide a streamlined construction of perfectoid big Cohen-Macaulay algebras and show new functoriality properties for them using the perfectoidization functor of Bhatt and Scholze.

Let $$f\colon Y \to X$$ be a proper flat morphism of locally noetherian schemes. Then the locus in $$X$$ over which $$f$$ is smooth is stable under generization. We prove that, under suitable assumptions on the formal fibers of $$X$$ , the same property holds for other local properties of morphisms, even if $$f$$ is only closed and flat. Our proof of this statement reduces to a purely local question known as Grothendieck's localization problem. To answer Grothendieck's problem, we provide a general framework that gives a uniform treatment of previously known cases of this problem, and also solves this problem in new cases, namely for weak normality, seminormality, $$F$$ -rationality, and the ‘Cohen–Macaulay and $$F$$ -injective’ property. For the weak normality statement, we prove that weak normality always lifts from Cartier divisors. We also solve Grothendieck's localization problem for terminal, canonical, and rational singularities in equal characteristic zero.more » « less

Abstract We construct local models of Shimura varieties and investigate their singularities, with special emphasis on wildly ramified cases. More precisely, with the exception of odd unitary groups in residue characteristic 2 we construct local models, show reducedness of their special fiber, Cohen–Macaulayness and in equicharacteristic also (pseudo-)rationality. In mixed characteristic we conjecture their pseudo-rationality. This is based on the construction of parahoric group schemes over two dimensional bases for wildly ramified groups and an analysis of singularities of the attached Schubert varieties in positive characteristic using perfect geometry.more » « less

We prove that F-injectivity localizes, descends under faithfully flat homomorphisms, and ascends under flat homomorphisms with Cohen–Macaulay and geometrically F-injective fibers, all for arbitrary Noetherian rings of prime characteristic. As a consequence, we show that the F-injective locus is open on most rings arising in arithmetic and geometry. As a geometric application, we prove that over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 3, generic projection hypersurfaces associated to suitably embedded smooth projective varieties of dimension ≤5 are F-pure, and hence F-injective. This geometric result is the positive characteristic analogue of a theorem of Doherty.more » « less

Abstract We establish the Minimal Model Program for arithmetic threefolds whose residue characteristics are greater than five. In doing this, we generalize the theory of global $$F$$ F -regularity to mixed characteristic and identify certain stable sections of adjoint line bundles. Finally, by passing to graded rings, we generalize a special case of Fujita’s conjecture to mixed characteristic.more » « less
