The fiberwise birational model conjecture for Moishezon morphisms

Let D\mathbb D denote the complex disc. A proper morphism is Moishezon if it is bimeromorphic to a projective morphism. A morphism g:XDg:X\to\mathbb D is fiberwise birational to gp:XpDg^{\rm p}:X^{\rm p}\to\mathbb D when the corresponding fibers are birational for every point of D\mathbb D. Assume that g:XDg:X\to\mathbb D is flat, proper, and Moishezon, and that X0X_0 has canonical, respectively log terminal, singularities.

The fiberwise birational model conjecture. Then gg is fiberwise birational to a flat, projective morphism gp:XpDg^{\rm p}:X^{\rm p}\to\mathbb D such that, respectively, X0pX_0^{\rm p} has canonical, respectively log terminal, singularities; XspX_s^{\rm p} has terminal singularities for s0s\neq 0; and KXpK_{X^{\rm p}} is Q\mathbb Q-Cartier.

This conjecture concerns improving the projective model of a Moishezon morphism over a one-dimensional base so that every fiber, including the special fiber, is controlled birationally. The source introduces it as an open question in the context of projective models of Moishezon families.
