Higher dimensional foliated Mori theory

Abstract:

In recent years there has been growing interest in foliations in complex algebraic geometry, both as a tool to study algebraic varieties and as objects in their own right. I will describe some recent work on applying the ideas of Mori theory to foliations, and in particular, work on developing a foliated minimal model program (MMP) and a foliated Kodaira-Enriques classification.
