Abstract:

We give an introduction to the minimal model program of higher dimensional complex projective varieties. In particular, we will explain what minimal models and canonical models are and how they are related to each other. We illustrate this terminology in the more familiar case of surfaces and explain the main differences to the higher dimensional cases.
