ACC for minimal log discrepancies of terminal threefolds

Abstract

We prove that the ACC conjecture for minimal log discrepancies holds for threefolds in $[1-\hat{I}´,+\infty )$, where $\hat{I}´>0$ only depends on the coefficient set. We also study Reid's general elephant for pairs, and show Shokurov's conjecture on the existence of $(\hat{I}\mu ,n)$-complements for threefolds for any $\hat{I}\mu \ge 1$. As a key important step, we prove the uniform boundedness of divisors computing minimal log discrepancies for terminal threefolds. We show the ACC for threefold canonical thresholds, and that the set of accumulation points of threefold canonical thresholds is equal to $\{0\}\cup \{\frac{1}{n}{\}}_{n\in {\mathbb{Z}}_{\ge 2}}$ as well.
