On G-birational rigidity of projective spaces

Algebraic Geometry 2026-04-23 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we study finite subgroups GAut(Pn)G\subset\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbb{P}^n) such that Pn\mathbb{P}^n is GG-birationally rigid. For each n3n\geqslant 3, we prove that Aut(Pn)\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbb{P}^n) contains at most finitely many such subgroups up to conjugation. For n=4n=4, we prove that P4\mathbb{P}^4 is GG-birationally superrigid if GPSp4(F3)G\simeq\mathrm{PSp}_{4}(\mathbf{F}_3).
