Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let $X$ be an $n$-dimensional projective variety and let $\Delta$ be an effective $\mathbb{R}$-divisor on $X$ such that $K_X+\Delta$ is $\mathbb{R}$-Cartier. Assume that there exists a $(K_X+\Delta)$-negative extremal ray which is rational, relatively ample at infinity, and satisfies Then $X\simeq \mathbb P^n$, $(X,\Delta)$ is terminal, and $\Delta$ is a divisor of degree less than $1$.
