Abstract:
Over the field of complex numbers, Kodaira formulates a canonical bundle formula for
relatively minimal elliptic fibration in terms of $j$-function of the elliptic curves and singularities
of fibers. Over the field of positive characteristic, Bombieri and Mumford give a
canonical bundle formula in terms of Euler number of the surface. In the talk, we try to give
a canonical bundle formula of Kodaira type over the field of positive characteristic. This is
a joint work with Yi Gu.
