Abstract: In this paper, we shall study finite generation of symbolic Rees rings of the defining ideal of the space monomial curves (ta,tb,tc) for pairwise coprime integers a, b, c such that (a,b,c)eq(1,1,1). If such a ring is not finitely generated over a base field, then it is a counterexample to the Hilbert's fourteenth problem. Finite generation of such rings is deeply related to existence of negative curves on certain normal projective surfaces. We study a sufficient condition (Definition 3.6) for existence of a negative curve. Using it, we prove that, in the case of (a+b+c)2>abc, a negative curve exists. Using a computer, we shall show that there exist examples in which this sufficient condition is not satisfied.
