Boundedness of complements for fibered Fano threefolds in positive characteristic

TL;DR
This work addresses boundedness of complements for Fano-type threefolds in large positive characteristic by establishing a canonical bundle formula for Fano-type fibrations and proving Shokurov's boundedness of complements in this setting. The authors adapt and extend the characteristic-zero strategy to positive characteristic, leveraging a restricted vanishing theorem, adjunctions, and the canonical bundle formula to control singularities and positivity across the base. A key innovation is the effective canonical bundle formula for Fano-type fibrations and the use of Frobenius-stable sections to lift complements, which leads to both relative and global boundedness results for complements in dimension three. The results contribute to the understanding and potential resolution of BAB-type boundedness in positive characteristic and provide tools for constructing bounded moduli of Fano-type fibrations in large characteristic regimes.
Abstract
In this paper, we prove the canonical bundle formula for Fano type fibrations and Shokurov's conjecture on boundedness of complements for Fano type threefold pairs $(X,B)$ with fibration structures in large characteristics. In particular, we prove the conjecture when $-(K_X+B)\not\equiv 0$ is nef and not big in large characteristics.
