Ample divisors on normal Gorenstein surfaces (Q1086637)

As in \textit{F. Sakai}'s articles [Am. J. Math. 104, 1233-1241 (1982; Zbl 0512.14022) and Saitama Math. J. 1, 29-35 (1983; Zbl 0564.14005)], a normal Gorenstein surface means a complex normal projective surface with at most Gorenstein singularities; this Gorenstein condition is equivalent to invertibility of the dualizing sheaf \(\omega\) (under other conditions). The author begins with some characterization of numerically effectiveness of \(\omega\otimes L\) (L being an ample line bundle on the normal Gorenstein surface S), then he shows several results including a classification of the pair (S,L), in the case the logarithmic Kodaira dimension of the pair \(\neq -\infty\), in view of the dimension of the image of the map associated to \(\Gamma ((\omega \otimes L)^ N)\) with sufficiently large N.
