The optimal bound for effective building of singularities

About 27 years old · traced to

Let (X,B)(X,B) be a log variety, let x∈X∖LCS(X,B)x\in X\setminus LCS(X,B) be a closed point, and let H∈Div⁡(X)⊗QH\in\operatorname{Div}(X)\otimes\mathbb{Q} be ample and normalized at xx. Effective-building conjecture.

bldx(B;H)≤a(x;X,B).bld_x(B;H)\leq a(x;X,B).

Here bldx(B;H)bld_x(B;H) is the infimum of the positive cc for which there is an effective Q\mathbb{Q}-Cartier divisor D∼QcHD\sim_{\mathbb{Q}}cH with a(x;B+D)=0a(x;B+D)=0. The conjecture seeks the optimal local bound; the source proves a weaker universal bound, while the supplied text gives no resolution status.
