We study Fano threefolds that can be obtained by blowing up the three-dimensional projective space along a smooth curve of degree six and genus three. We produce many new K-stable examples of such threefolds, and we describe all finite…
We give conditions for a uniruled variety of dimension at least 2 to be non-solid. This study provides further evidence to a conjecture by Abban and Okada on the solidity of Fano 3-folds. To complement our results we write explicit…
The elliptic curves on a surface of general type constitute an obstruction for the cotangent sheaf to be ample. In this paper, we give the classification of the configurations of the elliptic curves on the Fano surface of a smooth cubic…
We solve the infinitesimal Torelli problem for $3$-dimensional quasi-smooth ${\mathbb{Q}}$-Fano hypersurfaces with at worst terminal singularities. We also find infinite chains of double coverings of increasing dimension which alternatively…
In our previous research, we constructed the affine varieties $\Sigma_{\mathbb{A}}^{13}$ and $\Pi_{\mathbb{A}}^{14}$ whose partial projectivizations admit $\mathbb{P}^{2}\times\mathbb{P}^{2}$-fibrations with relative Picard number one. In…
In a work of Costa and Mir\'{o}-Roig state the following conjecture: Every smooth complete toric Fano variety has a full strongly exceptional collection of line bundles. The goal of this article is to prove it for toric Fano 3-folds.
The paper is dedicated to the study of algebraic manifolds whose quantum cohomology or a part of it is a semisimple Frobenius manifold. Theorem 1.8.1 says, roughly speaking, that the sum of $(p,p)$--cohomology spaces is a maximal Frobenius…
In this article we exhibit certain projective degenerations of smooth $K3$ surfaces of degree $2g-2$ in $\Bbb P^g$ (whose Picard group is generated by the hyperplane class), to a union of two rational normal scrolls, and also to a union of…
We study the variety of Poisson structures and compute Poisson cohomology for two families of Fano threefolds - smooth cubic threefolds and the del Pezzo quintic threefold. Along the way we reobtain by a different method earlier results of…
In arXiv:1503.00125, the authors proved that every complete intersection smooth projective variety $Y$ is a Fano visitor, i.e. its derived category $D^b(Y)$ is equivalent to a full triangulated subcategory of the derived category $D^b(X)$…
We show the existence of smooth isolated curves of different degrees and genera in Calabi-Yau threefolds that are complete intersections in homogeneous spaces. Along the way, we classify all degrees and genera of smooth curves on BN general…
We prove that the stably free modules over a smooth affine threefold over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2 are free.
Given a 3-graph H, let \ex_2(n, H) denote the maximum value of the minimum codegree of a 3-graph on n vertices which does not contain a copy of H. Let F denote the Fano plane, which is the 3-graph \{axx',ayy',azz',xyz',xy'z,x'yz,x'y'z'\}.…
The purpose of this note is twofold. First, we give a quick proof of Ballico-Chiantini's theorem stating that a Fano or Calabi-Yau variety of dimension at least 4 in codimension two is a complete intersection. Second, we improve Barth-Van…
We propose a new method to study birational maps between Fano varieties based on multiplier ideal sheaves. Using this method, we prove equivariant birational rigidity of four Fano threefolds acted on by the group A6. As an application, we…
In this article, we introduce a new approach to show the existence and smoothing of simple normal crossing varieties in a given projective space. Our approach relates the above to the existence of nowhere reduced schemes called ribbons and…
We address the following question: When an affine cone over a smooth Fano threefold admits an effective action of the additive group? In this paper we deal with Fano threefolds of index 1 and Picard number 1. Our approach is based on a…
We prove that every smooth Fano complete intersection of index $1$ and codimension $r$ in $\mathbb{P}^{n+r}$ is birationally superrigid and K-stable if $n\ge 10r$. We also propose a generalization of Tian's criterion of K-stability and, as…
We describe the moduli space of rational curves on smooth Fano varieties of coindex 3. For varieties of dimension 5 or greater, we prove the moduli space has a single irreducible component for each effective numerical class of curves. For…
Several smooth finite element de Rham complexes are constructed in three-dimensional space, which yield three families of grad-div conforming finite elements. The simplest element has only 8 degrees of freedom (DOFs) for a tetrahedron and…
