Abstract: Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension $n$, and let $L$ be an ample Cartier divisor. We prove that $K_X+mL$ is globally generated for every integer $m\geq\lceil C_0n\rceil$, where $C_0=1.77629\ldots$ is an explicit constant. In particular, $K_X+2nL$ is globally generated. We also prove that if $Z$ is a normal projective variety of dimension $n$ with $K_Z$ Cartier, nef and big, then $|mK_Z|$ defines a birational map for every integer $m\geq1+\lceil C_0n+3\sqrt{2\mathrm{e}n}\rceil$. Our main input is a new estimate for the multiplicity of a minimal log canonical center. If $(X,Δ)$ is log canonical near a closed point $x$ but is not klt at $x$, and $W$ is the positive-dimensional minimal log canonical center through $x$, then $2\overline{e}_1(\mathfrak m_{W,x})\leq\bigl(\dim W-\operatorname{lct}_x((X,Δ);\mathfrak m_x)\bigr)\operatorname{mult}_xW$, where $\overline{e}_1(\mathfrak m_{W,x})$ is the first normal Hilbert coefficient of the maximal ideal of $\mathcal O_{W,x}$. This implies $\operatorname{mult}_xW\leq \frac{(a+c)^{a+c}}{a^ac^c}$, where $a:=\frac{\dim W-\operatorname{lct}_x((X,Δ);\mathfrak m_{x})}{2}$ and $c:=\operatorname{edim}\mathcal O_{W,x}-\dim W$.
