Generalized log-Calabi–Yau conjecture for polarized endomorphisms

From papers

Let XX be a normal projective variety, let f ⁣:XXf\colon X\to X be a qq-polarized endomorphism, and let Δ\Delta be an effective Q\mathbb{Q}-divisor such that (X,Δ)(X,\Delta) is an ff-pair, meaning that

RΔ:=Δ+RffΔ0,R_{\Delta}:=\Delta+R_f-f^*\Delta\geq 0,

where RfR_f is determined by KX=fKX+RfK_X=f^*K_X+R_f. Generalized log-Calabi–Yau conjecture. After replacing ff by an iterate, both

KX+Δ+RΔq1K_X+\Delta+\frac{R_{\Delta}}{q-1}

is Q\mathbb{Q}-Cartier and numerically trivial, and

(X,Δ+RΔq1)\left(X,\Delta+\frac{R_{\Delta}}{q-1}\right)

is log canonical. This extends the preceding conjectures to ff-pairs; the source presents it as a conjecture, and its general status is open.
