Given a smooth projective variety, a Chow-K\"unneth decomposition is called multiplicative if it is compatible with the intersection product. Following works of Beauville and Voisin, Shen and Vial conjectured that hyper-K\"ahler varieties…
Strange duality is shown to hold over generic $K3$ surfaces in a large number of cases. The isomorphism for elliptic $K3$ surfaces is established first via Fourier-Mukai techniques. Applications to Brill-Noether theory for sheaves on $K3$s…
The theory of rare $K$ decays is reviewed, emphasizing short-distance processes and the prospects to probe the physics of flavour. A brief overview of the subject is presented, along with a more detailed discussion of the theory of…
A K3 surface is a quaternionic analogue of an elliptic curve from a view point of moduli of vector bundles. We can prove the algebraicity of certain Hodge cycles and a rigidity of curve of genus eleven and gives two kind of descriptions of…
The main purpose of this article is to prove that the family of all Fano threefolds with log-terminal singularities with bounded index is bounded.
We continue to study the problems of discovering new temporal and spatial properties of neutrinos from the point of the possible multi-dimensional extension the D=(3+1)- special theory of relativity. It is neutrino that can connect our…
Fano varieties are subvarieties of the Grassmannian whose points parametrize linear subspaces contained in a given projective variety. These expository notes give an account of results on Fano varieties of complete intersections, with a…
We construct an explicit semistable degeneration of a Fano eightfold of index three and deduce its Hodge numbers, in particular we show that it has Picard rank one. The Fano variety is of K3 type and it is defined as a connected component…
We study families of $K3$ surfaces obtained by double covering of the projective plane branching along curves of $(2,3)$-torus type. In the first part, we study the Picard lattices of the families, and a lattice duality of them. In the…
We classify birationally rigid orbifold Fano 3-folds of index one defined by $5 \times 5$ Pfaffians. We give a sharp criterion for birational rigidity of these families based on the type of singularities that the varieties admit. Various…
In this article, we study the K-moduli space of Fano threefolds obtained by blowing up $\mathbb{P}^3$ along $(2,3)$-complete intersection curves. This K-moduli space is a two-step birational modification of the GIT moduli space of…
We prove that the Fano variety of lines of a cuspidal cyclic cubic fourfold is a symplectic variety with transversal A2-singularities and we study the properties of the nonsymplectic order three automorphism induced by the covering…
We give a structure theorem for n-dimensional smooth toric Fano varieties whose associated polytope has "many" pairs of centrally symmetric vertices.
We classify the cones of curves of Fano varieties of dimension greater or equal than five and (pseudo)index dim X -3, describing the number and type of their extremal rays.
We prove that very general, dual Gushel-Mukai surfaces are not isomorphic, though derived and L-equivalent. We use this result to study two semiorthogonal decompositions for a family of Fano fourfolds of K3 type, answering a question by…
The possibility to determine the axial strange form factor of the nucleon from neutrino scattering experiments is studied. The existing experimental information is reviewed and several related observables which could be measured in the near…
In this paper we study the connection between rigid sheaves and separable-exceptional objects on Fano varieties over arbitrary fields. We give criteria for a rigid vector bundle on a Fano variety to be the direct sum of…
We report on recent results on nucleon structure that are helping guide the search for new physics at the precision frontier. Results discussed include the electroweak elastic form factors, charge symmetry breaking in parton distributions…
We describe recent progress in a program to understand the classification of three-dimensional Fano varieties with $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial terminal singularities using mirror symmetry. As part of this we give an improved and more conceptual…
