Birational rigidity of a three-dimensional double cone

Algebraic Geometry 2015-06-26 v1

Abstract

It is proved that a three-dimensional double cone is a birationally rigid variety. We also compute the group of birational automorphisms of such a variety. This work is based on the method of "untwisting" maximal singularities of linear system.
