This paper classifies all toric Fano 3-folds with terminal singularities. This is achieved by solving the equivalent combinatoric problem; that of finding, up to the action of GL(3,Z), all convex polytopes in Z^3 which contain the origin as…
We compute the facets of the effective cones of divisors on the blow-up of P^3 in up to five lines in general position. We prove that up to six lines these threefolds are weak Fano and hence Mori Dream Spaces.
We produce a list of 64 families of Fano fourfolds of K3 type, extracted from our database of at least 634 Fano fourfolds constructed as zero loci of general global sections of completely reducible homogeneous vector bundles on products of…
We prove that the Albanese map of a smooth projective threefold, whose anticanonical bundle is nef, is a surjective submersion. We also investigate morphisms of threefolds to curves and surfaces whose relative anticanonical bundle are nef.
We prove the existence of singular del Pezzo surfaces that are neither K-semistable nor contain any anticanonical polar cylinder.
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 study threefolds fibred by K3 surfaces admitting a lattice polarization by a certain class of rank 19 lattices. We begin by showing that any family of such K3 surfaces is completely determined by a map from the base of the family to the…
We prove K-stability of smooth Fano 3-folds of Picard rank 3 and degree 20 that satisfy very explicit generality condition.
We show that certain Fano eightfolds (obtained as hyperplane sections of an orthogonal Grassmannian, and studied by Ito-Miura-Okawa-Ueda and by Fatighenti-Mongardi) have a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition. As a corollary, the…
We prove the unpolarized Shafarevich conjecture for K3 surfaces: the set of isomorphism classes of K3 surfaces over a fixed number field with good reduction away from a fixed and finite set of places is finite. Our proof is based on the…
The naive analogue of the N\'eron-Ogg-Shafarevich criterion is false for K3 surfaces, that is, there exist K3 surfaces over Henselian, discretely valued fields $K$, with unramified $\ell$-adic \'etale cohomology groups, but which do not…
A normal projective non-Gorenstein log-terminal surface $S$ is called a log del Pezzo surface of index three if the three-times of the anti-canonical divisor $-3K_S$ is an ample Cartier divisor. We classify all of the log del Pezzo surfaces…
We present a combinatorial criterion on reflexive polytopes of dimension 3 which gives a local-to-global obstruction for the smoothability of the corresponding Fano toric threefolds. As a result, we show examples of singular Gorenstein Fano…
We consider real forms of relatively minimal rational surfaces F_m. Connected components of moduli of real non-singular curves in |-2K_{F_m}| had been classified recently for m=0, 1, 4 in math.AG/0312396. Applying similar methods, here we…
We prove that a quasi-smooth Fano threefold hypersurface is birationally rigid if and only if it has Fano index one.
We study the K-moduli stack of prime Fano threefolds of genus twelve, known as $V_{22}$. We prove that its boundary, which parametrizes singular members, is purely divisorial and consists of four irreducible components corresponding to the…
We determine the fixed locus of the anticanonical complete linear system of a given anticanonical rational surface. The case of a geometrically ruled rational surface is fully studied, e.g., the monoid of numerically effective divisor…
It is well known that the Hodge conjecture with rational coefficients holds for degree 2n-2 classes on complex projective n-folds. In this paper we study the more precise question if on a rationally connected complex projective n-fold the…
Fano surfaces parametrize the lines of smooth cubic threefolds. In this paper, we study their quotients by some of their automorphism sub-groups. We obtain in that way some interesting surfaces of general type.
Let $X$ be a non-singular compact complex surface such that the anticanonical line bundle admits a smooth Hermitian metric with semi-positive curvature. For a non-singular hypersurface $Y$ which defines an anticanonical divisor, we…
