Abstract:

Let $(S, \Delta )$ be a log surface with at worst log canonical singularities and reduced boundary $\Delta$ such that $-(K_{S}+\Delta )$ is nef and big. We shall prove that $S^{o} = S - Sing S - \Delta$ either has finite fundamental group or is affine-ruled. Moreover, $\pi _{1}(S^{o})$ and the structure of $S$ are determined in some sense when $\Delta = 0$.
