Abstract
We study non-vanishing and birationality of big pluricanonical adjoint linear systems on a variety of general type X. In particular given L big and with sufficiently large volume, if X is a surface we prove that h0(2KX + L) 6= 0 and that j3KX + 2Lj gives a birational map; if X is a threefold we prove that h0(6KX + 5L) 6= 0 and that j8KX + 7Lj gives a birational map. We find analogous explicit results also for fourfolds of general type.
