Morrison–Kawamata cone conjecture

Let (X/Z,Δ)(X/Z,\Delta) be a klt log Calabi–Yau pair over ZZ, where XX is Q\mathbb{Q}-factorial and Δ\Delta is an R\mathbb{R}-boundary. Let Ae(X/Z)\mathcal{A}^e(X/Z) and Me(X/Z)\mathcal{M}^e(X/Z) denote the effective nef and effective movable cones, respectively. The groups Aut(X/Z,Δ)\operatorname{Aut}(X/Z,\Delta) and PsAut(X/Z,Δ)\operatorname{PsAut}(X/Z,\Delta) act on these cones by pushforward. Morrison–Kawamata cone conjecture. (1) The action of Aut(X/Z,Δ)\operatorname{Aut}(X/Z,\Delta) on Ae(X/Z)\mathcal{A}^e(X/Z) admits a rational polyhedral fundamental domain Π\Pi such that

Ae(X/Z)=gAut(X/Z,Δ)gΠ\mathcal{A}^e(X/Z)=\bigcup_{g\in\operatorname{Aut}(X/Z,\Delta)}g_*\Pi

and

IntΠgIntΠ=\operatorname{Int}\Pi\cap g_*\operatorname{Int}\Pi=\varnothing

unless g=1g_*=1. (2) The action of PsAut(X/Z,Δ)\operatorname{PsAut}(X/Z,\Delta) on Me(X/Z)\mathcal{M}^e(X/Z) admits a rational polyhedral fundamental domain Π\Pi' such that

Me(X/Z)=gPsAut(X/Z,Δ)gΠ\mathcal{M}^e(X/Z)=\bigcup_{g\in\operatorname{PsAut}(X/Z,\Delta)}g_*\Pi'

and

IntΠgIntΠ=\operatorname{Int}\Pi'\cap g_*\operatorname{Int}\Pi'=\varnothing

unless g=1g_*=1. This is the fundamental-domain form of the Morrison–Kawamata cone conjecture, strengthening the weak finiteness formulation by requiring rational polyhedral fundamental domains.
