Fano fibration
In algebraic geometry, a Fano fibration or Fano fiber space, named after Gino Fano, is a morphism of varieties whose general fiber is a Fano variety (in other words has ample anticanonical bundle) of positive dimension. The ones arising from extremal contractions in the minimal model program are called Mori fibrations or Mori fiber spaces (for Shigefumi Mori). They appear as standard forms for varieties without a minimal model.

different direction, he studied the old problem of Iitaka on effectivity of Iitaka fibrations induced by pluri-canonical systems on varieties of non-negative Kodaira dimension. The problem consists of two halves: one related to general fibres of the fibration and one related to the base of the fibration. Birkar and Zhang co-solved the second half of the problem, hence essentially reducing Iitaka's problem to the special case of Kodaira dimension zero.
In more recent work, Birkar studied Fano varieties and singularities of linear systems. He
