Extract

Let S be a normal projective algebraic surface over C with at worst quotient singularities. S is a quasi-log del Pezzo surface if the anti-canonical divisor — Ks is nef (= numerically effective) and big, i.e. — Ks. C ≥ 0 for all curves C on S and (−Ks)2 > 0. Further, if — Ks is ample we say S is a log del Pezzo surface.
