We compute global log canonical thresholds of some smooth Fano threefolds.

During the last years we have generated a large number of data related to Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties which can be described by reflexive polyhedra. We classified all reflexive polyhedra in three dimensions leading to K3…

We discuss families of hypersurfaces with isolated singularities in projective space with the property that the sum of the ranks of the rational homotopy and the homology groups is finite. They represent infinitely many distinct homotopy…

The anticanonical complex generalizes the Fano polytope from toric geometry and has been used to study Fano varieties with torus action so far. We work out the case of complete intersections in toric varieties defined by non-degenerate…

In this note we consider the motivic aspect of the middle cohomology of more than 200 classes of quasi-smooth Calabi--Yau threefolds inside weighted projective 4-space which come with an action of a cyclic group of even order. The action…

Under a hypothesis on $k$, $d$ and $n$ that is almost the best possible, we prove that for every smooth degree $d$ hypersurface in $P^n$, the $k$-plane sections dominate the moduli space of degree $d$ hypersurface in $P^k$. Using this we…

We construct Fano threefolds with very ample anti-canonical bundle and Picard rank greater than one from cracked polytopes - polytopes whose intersection with a complete fan forms a set of unimodular polytopes - using Laurent inversion; a…

This paper constructs tilting bundles obtained from full strong exceptional collections of line bundles on all smooth $4$-dimensional toric Fano varieties. The tilting bundles lead to a large class of explicit Calabi-Yau-$5$ algebras,…

We construct klt projective varieties with ample canonical class and the smallest known volume. We also find exceptional klt Fano varieties with the smallest known anticanonical volume. We conjecture that our examples have the smallest…

We present a complete classification of all arrangements of eight planes in projective threespace that give rise to double octic Calabi-Yau threefolds. Building on earlier work, we determine all 455 combinatorial types and describe the…

Using the global Gulliksen-Neg{\aa}rd complex, we build in this note regular canonical surfaces of general type in ${\mathbb P}^6$, Calabi-Yau 3-folds in ${\mathbb P}^7$ and Fano anticanonical 4-folds, all of degree 17 and 20. We also give…

We show that Fano 4-folds with Picard number 5 have Lefschetz defect 3 if and only if they are toric of combinatorial type K. We also find a characterization for such varieties in terms of Picard number of prime divisors. Moreover, we…

We show that the family of 21-dimensional intermediate jacobians of cubic fivefolds containing a given cubic fourfold X is generically an algebraic integrable system. In the proof we apply an integrability criterion, introduced and used by…

We study smooth, complex Fano 4-folds X with a rational contraction onto a 3-fold, namely a rational map X-->Y that factors as a sequence of flips X-->X' followed by a surjective morphism X'->Y with connected fibers, where Y is normal,…

We find all K-stable smooth Fano threefolds in the family No. 2.22.

A Fano surface of a smooth cubic threefold X in P^4 parametrizes the lines on X. In this note, we prove that a Fano surface satisfies the Tate conjecture over a field of finite type over the prime field and characteristic not 2.

We obtain 866 isomorphism classes of five-dimensional nonsingular toric Fano varieties using a computer program and the database of four-dimensional reflexive polytopes. The algorithm is based on the existence of facets of Fano polytopes…

In this note we study Fano threefolds with noncyclic torsion in the divisor class group. Since they can all be obtained as quotients of Fano threefolds, we get also all examples that can be obtained as quotients of low codimension Fanos in…

This article settles the question of existence of smooth weak Fano threefolds of Picard number two with small anti-canonical map and previously classified numerical invariants obtained by blowing up certain curves on smooth Fano threefolds…
