We find a relation between a cubic hypersurface $Y$ and its Fano variety of lines $F(Y)$ in the Grothendieck ring of varieties. We prove that if the class of an affine line is not a zero-divisor in the Grothendieck ring of varieties, then…
Among smooth non-rational Fano 3-folds, the non-hyperelliptic Fano 3-fold X(10) of genus 6 has the unique property to admit a non-trivial orbit of birationally isomorphic 3-folds, inside its moduli space. Here we prove that these orbits…
We obtain a complete classification of proper biharmonic hypersurfaces with at most three distinct principal curvatures in sphere spaces with arbitrary dimension. Precisely, together with known results of Balmu\c{s}-Montaldo-Oniciuc, we…
We introduce a new subclass of Fano varieties (Casagrande-Druel varieties), that are $n$-dimensional varieties constructed from Fano double covers of dimension $n-1$. We conjecture that a Casagrande-Druel variety is K-polystable if the…
The goal of this paper is to generalize results concerning the deformation theory of Calabi-Yau and Fano threefolds with isolated hypersurface singularites, due to the first author, Namikawa and Steenbrink. In particular, under the…
We classify the smooth Fano 4-folds of Picard number two that have a general hypersurface Cox ring.
We prove that a general three-dimensional quartic $V$ in the complex projective space ${\mathbb P}^4$, the only singularity of which is a double point of rank 3, is a birationally rigid variety. Its group of birational self-maps is, up to…
It is well-known that a Riemann surface can be decomposed into the so-called pairs-of-pants. Each pair-of-pants is diffeomorphic to a Riemann sphere minus 3 points. We show that a smooth complex projective hypersurface of arbitrary…
We prove that a stable minimal hypersurface of an open ball having a singular set of locally finite codimension 2 Hausdorff measure which is weakly close to a multiplicity 2 hyperplane is a 2-valued C^{1, alpha} graph in the interior.…
By identifying K-polystable limits in 4 specific deformations families of smooth Fano 3-folds, we complete the classification of one-dimensional components in the K-moduli space of smoothable Fano 3-folds.
We show first that a generic hypersurface $V$ of degree $d\geq 3$ in the complex projective space $ \mathbb{P}^n$ of dimension $n \geq 3$ has at least one hyperplane section $V \cap H$ containing exactly $n$ ordinary double points, alias…
We prove that the space of pairs $(X,l)$ formed by a real non-singular cubic hypersurface $X\subset P^4$ with a real line $l\subset X$ has 18 connected components and give for them several quite explicit interpretations. The first one…
We prove that a general Fano hypersurface in a projective space over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic is separably rationally connected.
This paper is devoted to the study of holomorphic distributions of dimension and codimension one on smooth weighted projective complete intersection Fano manifolds threedimensional, with Picard number equal to one. We study the relations…
We classify Fano fivefolds of index two which are blow-ups of smooth manifolds along a smooth center.
In this paper we address Fano manifolds with positive higher Chern characters. They are expected to enjoy stronger versions of several of the nice properties of Fano manifolds. For instance, they should be covered by higher dimensional…
We construct exceptional Fano varieties with the smallest known minimal log discrepancies in all dimensions. These varieties are well-formed hypersurfaces in weighted projective space. Their minimal log discrepancies decay doubly…
We determine the rationality of very general quasismooth Fano 3-fold weighted hypersurfaces completely and determine the stable rationality of them except for cubic 3-folds. More precisely we prove that (i) very general Fano 3-fold weighted…
Given a hypersurface $i \colon X \hookrightarrow \widetilde{P}^n$ in a weighted projective space, we compute the intersection form on the second cohomology $H^2(X, \mathbb{Z})^{\otimes n-1} \to \mathbb{Z}$ for the purpose of identifying…
For one-dimensional systems of conservation laws admitting two additional conservation laws we assign a ruled surface of codimension two in projective space. We call two such systems dual if the corresponding ruled surfaces are dual. We…
