Normal Projective Varieties Admitting Polarized or Int-amplified Endomorphisms
Sheng Meng , De-Qi Zhang
Let X be a normal projective variety admitting a polarized or int-amplified endomorphism f. We list up characteristic properties of such an endomorphism and classify such a variety from the aspects of its singularity, anti-canonical divisor, and Kodaira dimension. Then, we run the equivariant minimal model program with respect to not just the single f but also the monoid SEnd(X) of all surjective endomorphisms of X, up to finite-index. Several applications are given. We also give both algebraic and geometric characterizations of toric varieties via polarized endomorphisms.
