Invariance of Plurigenera and boundedness for Generalized Pairs

In this note, we survey some recent developments in birational geometry concerning the boundedness of algebraic varieties. We delineate a strategy to extend some of these results to the case of generalized pairs, first introduced by Birkar and Zhang, when the associated log canonical divisor is ample, and the volume is fixed. In this context, we show a version of deformation invariance of plurigenera for generalized pairs. We conclude by discussing an application to the boundedness of varieties of Kodaira dimension $κ(X)=\dim(X)-1$.
