A variety is said to satisfy Condition (A) if every finite abelian subgroup of its automorphism group has a fixed point. We show that a smooth Fano 3-fold not satisfying Condition (A) is K-polystable unless it is contained in eight…

We prove that all smooth Fano threefolds of rank 4 and degree 24 are K-stable.

We classify Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein singularities whose anticanonical linear system has no base points but does not give an embedding, and we classify anticanonically embedded Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein…

We study the configurations of genus 2 curves on the Fano surfaces of cubic threefolds. We establish a link between some involutive automorphisms acting on such a surface S and genus 2 curves on S. We give a partial classification of the…

The K-moduli space of Fano varieties has been popular in recent research of algebraic geometry. There has been a lot of progress in dimension 3 and we will try to construct explicitly a compactified K-moduli space for the Fano family 2.24.

The family of smooth Fano 3-folds with Picard rank 1 and anticanonical volume 4 consists of quartic 3-folds and of double covers of the 3-dimensional quadric branched along an octic surface. They can all be parametrised as complete…

We study the Picard variety of the Fano surface of nodal and mildly cuspidal cubic threefolds in arbitrary characteristic by relating divisors on the Fano surface to divisors on the symmetric product of a curve of genus 4.

We study Fano 3-folds with Fano index 2: that is, 3-folds X with rank Pic(X) = 1, Q-factorial terminal singularities and -K_X = 2A for an ample Weil divisor A. We give a first classification of all possible Hilbert series of such polarised…

We study the K-moduli space of products of Fano varieties in relation to the product of K-moduli spaces of the product components. We show that there exists a well-defined morphism from the product of K-moduli stacks of Fano varieties to…

Let X be a Fano threefold, and let S be a K3 surface in X . Any moduli space M of simple vector bundles on S carries a holomorphic symplectic structure. Following an idea of Tyurin, we show that in some cases, those vector bundles which…

We construct a 4-dimensional family of surfaces of general type with p_g=0 and K^2=3 and fundamental group Z/2xQ_8, where Q_8 is the quaternion group. The family constructed contains the Burniat surfaces with K^2=3. Additionally, we…

There exist exactly 166 4-dimensional reflexive polytopes such that the corresponding 4-dimensional Gorenstein toric Fano varieties have at worst terminal singularities in codimension 3 and their anticanonical divisor is divisible by 2. For…

We exhibit examples of slope-stable and modular vector bundles on a hyperk\"ahler manifold of K3$^{[2]}$-type which move in a 20-dimensional family and study their algebraic properties. These are obtained by performing standard linear…

We construct a family of Fano fourfolds with the derived category of coherent sheaves of a general Enriques surface as semiorthogonal component. This improves a result of Kuznetsov, lowering the Fano dimension of a general Enriques surface…

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 provide a systematic method to classify all smooth weak Fano toric varieties of Picard rank $3$ in any dimension using Macaulay2, and describe the classification explicitly in dimensions $3$ and $4$. There are $28$ and $114$ isomorphism…

We consider some families of smooth Fano hypersurfaces $X_{n+2}$ in ${\bf P}^{n+2} \times {\bf P}^3$ given by a homogeneous polynomial of bidegree $(1,3)$. For these varieties we obtain lower bounds for the number of $F$-rational points of…

In 1949 Fano published his last paper on $3$-folds with canonical sectional curves. There he constructed and described a $3$-fold of the type $X^{22}_3$ in ${\mathbb P}^{13}$ with canonical curve section, which we like to call Fano's last…

In this paper we consider double covers of the projective space in relation with the problem of extensions of varieties, specifically of extensions of canonical curves to $K3$ surfaces and Fano 3-folds. In particular we consider $K3$…

We classify non-factorial nodal Fano threefolds with $1$ node and class group of rank $2$.
