Dongsoo Shin, Deformations of Sandwiched Surface Singularities and the Semistable Minimal Model Program
Speaker Dongsoo Shin Chungnam National Univ. A sandwiched surface singularity is a rational surface singularity that admits a birational map to the complex projective plane. de Jong and van Straten prove that deformations of sandwiched surface singularities are induced from special deformations of germs of plane curve singularities (called picture deformations).
