Abstract
We prove that the mobile cone and the cone of curves birationally movable in codimension 1 are dual to each other in the (K + B)-negative part for a klt pair (X, B). This duality of the cones gives a partial answer to the problem posed by Sam Payne. We also prove the cone theorem and the contraction theorem for the expanded cone of curves birationally movable in codimension 1.
