It is conjectured that the base varieties of the Iitaka fibrations are bounded when the Iitaka volumes are bounded above. We confirm this conjecture for Iitaka $\epsilon$-lc Fano type fibrations.
We determine an asymptotic formula for the number of integral points of bounded height on a blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^3$ outside certain planes using universal torsors.
A conjecture of Batyrev and Manin relates arithmetic properties of varieties with ample anticanonical class to geometric invariants; in particular, counting functions defined by metrized ample line bundles and the corresponding asymptotics…
In this paper, we study the explicit geometry of threefolds, in particular, Fano varieties. We find an explicitly computable positive integer $N$, such that all but a bounded family of Fano threefolds have $N$-complements. This result has…
We show boundedness of $3$-folds of $\epsilon$-Fano type with Mori fibration structures. The proof is based on the birational boundedness result in our previous work arXiv:1509.08722 combining with arguments in Kawamata \cite{K} and…
We formulate a conjecture on the number of integral points of bounded height on log Fano varieties in analogy with Manin's conjecture on the number of rational points of bounded height on Fano varieties. We also give a prediction for the…
Let $X^o=\mathbb P^3\setminus D$ where $D$ is the union of two quadrics such that their intersection contains a smooth conic, or the union of a smooth quadric surface and two planes, or the union of a smooth cubic surface $V$ and a plane…
We investigate birational boundedness of Fano varieties and Fano fibrations. We establish an inductive step towards birational boundedness of Fano fibrations via conjectures related to boundedness of Fano varieties and Fano fibrations. As…
We test numerically the refined Manin's conjecture about the asymptotics of points of bounded height on Fano varieties for some diagonal cubic surfaces.
We prove the Manin-Peyre conjecture for the number of rational points of bounded height outside of a thin subset on a family of Fano threefolds of bidegree (1,2). The proof uses a mixture of the circle method and techniques from the…
Let $B$ be a smooth projective curve and let $\pi: \mathcal{X} \to B$ be a smooth integral model of a geometrically integral Fano variety over $K(B)$. Geometric Manin's Conjecture predicts the structure of the irreducible components $M…
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 prove Manin's conjecture on the asymptotic behavior of the number of rational points of bounded anticanonical height for a spherical threefold with canonical singularities and two infinite families of spherical threefolds with log…
We initiate a systematic quantitative study of subsets of rational points that are integral with respect to a weighted boundary divisor on Fano orbifolds. We call the points in these sets Campana points. Earlier work of Campana and…
We give several examples of pairs of non-isomorphic cubic fourfolds whose Fano varieties of lines are birationally equivalent (and in one example isomorphic). Two of our examples, which are special families of conjecturally irrational…
We prove an analogue of Fujino and Mori's ``bounding the denominators'' in the log canonical bundle formula (see also Prokhorov and Shokurov) for Kawamata log terminal pairs of relative dimension one. As an application we prove that for a…
We study Fano threefolds with~terminal singularities admitting a "minimal" action of a finite group. We prove that under certain additional assumptions such a variety does not contain planes. We also obtain an upper bounds of the number of…
It is conjectured that the canonical models of varieties (not of general type) are bounded when the Iitaka volume is fixed. We confirm this conjecture when the general fibers of the corresponding Iitaka fibration are in a fixed bounded…
This paper initiates the systematic study of the number of points of bounded height on symmetric squares of weak Fano varieties. We provide a general framework for establishing the point count on $\text{Sym}^2 X$. In the specific case of…
Iterating the procedure of making a double cover over a given variety, we construct large families of smooth higher-dimensional Fano varieties of index 1. These varieties can be realized as complete intersections in various weighted…
