We show that the Picard rank is constant in families of Fano varieties (in arbitrary characteristic) and we moreover investigate the constancy of the index.

We study global log canonical thresholds on anticanonically embedded quasismooth weighted Fano threefold hypersurfaces having terminal quotient singularities to prove the existence of a Kahler-Einstein metric on most of them, and to produce…

We study weighted Fano fourfolds of K3 type realized as hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces. Under the additional assumption that the singular locus has dimension at most one, we prove that only finitely many such families exist. We…

We construct some new deformation families of four-dimensional Fano manifolds of index $1$ in some known classes of Gorenstein formats. These families have explicit descriptions in terms of equations, defining their image under the…

We prove that smooth Fano 5-folds with nef tangent bundles and Picard numbers greater than one are rational homogeneous manifolds.

Let X be a Fano manifold with Picard number one such that the tangent bundle T_X is big. If X admits a rational curve with trivial normal bundle, we show that X is isomorphic to the del Pezzo threefold of degree five.

For a complex connected semisimple linear algebraic group $G$ of adjoint type and of rank $n$, De Concini and Procesi constructed its wonderful compactification $\bar{G}$, which is a smooth Fano $G \times G$-variety of Picard number $n$…

We classify rank two Fano bundles over the Grassmannian of lines $\G(1,4)$. In particular we show that the only non-split rank two Fano bundle over $\G(1,4)$ is, up to a twist, the universal quotient bundle $\cQ$. This completes the…

An $n$-dimensional closed flat manifold is said to be of diagonal type if the standard representation of its holonomy group $G$ is diagonal. An $n$-dimensional Bieberbach group of diagonal type is the fundamental group of such a manifold.…

We show that general one-nodal prime Fano threefolds of genus $12$ are K-polystable.

We investigate some coboundary map associated to a $3$-dimensional terminal singularity which is important in the study of deformations of singular $3$-folds. We prove that this map vanishes only for quotient singularities and a…

We construct families of non-toric $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial terminal Fano ($\mathbb{Q}$-Fano) threefolds of codimension $\geq 20$ corresponding to 54 mutation classes of rigid maximally mutable Laurent polynomials. From the point of view of…

In this paper, we provide examples of Sarkisov links of type II between complex projective Fano threefolds $X$ with $\rho(X) = 1$. To show examples of these links, we study smooth weak Fano threefolds with extremal rays of type $E$. We…

We define the dual F-signature of modules, which is equivalent to the F-signature if the module is the base ring. By using this invariant, We give characterizations of regular, F-regular, F-rational, and Gorenstein singularities.

We study deformations of a pair of a $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano $3$-fold $X$ with only terminal singularities and its elephant $D \in |{-}K_X|$. We prove that, if there exists $D \in |{-}K_X|$ with only isolated singularities, the pair $(X,D)$ can…

Cluster algebras give rise to a class of Gorenstein rings which enjoy a large amount of symmetry. Concentrating on the rank 2 cases, we show how cluster varieties can be used to construct many interesting projective algebraic varieties. Our…

This note mainly studies the generic finiteness of \phi_m of a complex projective 3-fold of general type. A new result on the classification to bicanonical pencil for Gorenstein 3-folds is attached in the last section.

For each smooth Fano threefold $X$ with Picard number 1 we consider a weak Landau--Ginzburg model, that is a fibration over $\mathbb C^1$ given by a certain Laurent polynomial. In the spirit of L. Katzarkov's program we prove that the…

In this paper, we prove a general principle of lifting an automorphism from positive characteristic to zero characteristic. We based on the principle to prove the automorphism group of Fano variety of cubic threefold (fourfold) acts on its…

This paper classifies toric Fano 3-folds with singular locus { 1/k(1,1,1) } for any positive integer k, building on the work of Batyrev and Watanabe-Watanabe. This is achieved by completing an equivalent problem in the language of Fano…
