We study the moduli spaces of rational curves on prime Fano threefolds of index 1. For general threefolds of most genera we compute the dimension and the number of irreducible components of these moduli spaces. Our results confirm Geometric…

We give a lower bound of the $\delta$-invariants of ample line bundles in terms of Seshadri constants. As applications, we prove the uniform K-stability of infinitely many families of Fano hypersurfaces of arbitrarily large index, as well…

We establish the Hodge conjecture for the top dimensional cohomology group with integer coefficients of any $q$-complete complex manifold $X$ with $q<\dim X$. This holds in particular for the complement $X=\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^n\setminus A$…

In this paper, we investigate higher order minimal families $H_i$ of rational curves associated to Fano manifolds $X$. We prove that $H_i$ is also a Fano manifold if the Chern characters of $X$ satisfy some positivity conditions. We also…

Suppose that two compact manifolds $X, X'$ are connected by a sequence of Mukai flops. In this paper, we construct a ring isomorphism between cohomology ring of $X$ and $X'$. Using the local mirror symmetry technique, we prove that the…

We revisit results of Fujino--Sato on complete non-projective $\mathbb Q$-factorial toric varieties and their conjectural factorization by flips. We show that their main results admit short conceptual proofs, avoiding any restriction on the…

K{\"u}chle classified the Fano fourfolds that can be obtained as zero loci of global sections of homogeneous vector bundles on Grassmannians. Surprisingly, his classification exhibits two families of fourfolds with the same discrete…

We partially confirm a conjecture of Donaldson relating the greatest Ricci lower bound $R(X)$ to the existence of conical Kahler-Einstein metrics on a Fano manifold $X$. In particular, if $D\in |-K_X|$ is a smooth simple divisor and the…

We show that the usual sufficient criterion for a generic hypersurface in a smooth projective manifold to have the same Picard number as the ambient variety can be generalized to hypersurfaces in complete simplicial toric varieties. This…

We prove a more general and precise version of the Noether-Fano inequalities for birational maps between Mori fiber spaces. This is applied to give descriptions of global canonical thresholds on Fano varieties of Picard number one.

We propose Gamma Conjectures for Fano manifolds which can be thought of as a square root of the index theorem. Studying the exponential asymptotics of solutions to the quantum differential equation, we associate a principal asymptotic class…

Let $\phi:\Bbb C^n\to X$ a holomorphic map to an $n$-dimensional connected compact complex manifold $X$. We establish links between the positivity properties of the canonical bundle of $X$ and the rate of growth of $\phi$ which extend…

According to Mukai, any prime Fano threefold X of genus 7 is a linear section of the spinor tenfold in the projectivized half-spinor space of Spin(10). The orthogonal linear section of the spinor tenfold is a canonical genus-7 curve G, and…

Let $X_0$ be a smooth projective threefold which is Fano or which has Picard number $1$. Let $\pi :X\rightarrow X_0$ be a finite composition of blowups along smooth centers. We show that for "almost all" of such $X$, if $f\in Aut(X)$ then…

This paper is a sequel to math.AG/0203287. A generalization of the Mukai flop has been studied by E. Markman. Here we call it a stratified Mukai flop. In this paper, we observe that, for a stratified Mukai flop: $X \to \bar{X} \leftarrow…

We prove that the degree of Fano threefolds with terminal Q-factorial singularities and Picard number one is at most 125/2 and the bound is sharp.

The quantum period of a variety X is a generating function for certain Gromov-Witten invariants of X which plays an important role in mirror symmetry. In this paper we compute the quantum periods of all 3-dimensional Fano manifolds. In…

Let $(X, \Delta)$ be a compact K\"ahler klt pair, where $K_X + \Delta$ is ample or numerically trivial, and $\Delta$ has standard coefficients. We show that if equality holds in the orbifold Miyaoka-Yau inequality for $(X, \Delta)$, then…

We prove a weak version of a conjecture of Matsushita saying that for a Lagrangian fibration on a hyper-Kaehler manifold $X$, the moduli map for the fibers is either generically of maximal rank or constant. Assuming the base is smooth and…

In this paper, we prove a conjecture by T. Suzuki, which says if a smooth Fano manifold satisfies some positivity condition on its Chern character, then it can be covered by rational $N$-folds. We prove this conjecture by using purely…
