In this paper, we prove that a non-projective compact K\"ahler three-fold with nef anti-canonical bundle is, up to a finite \'etale cover, one of the following: a manifold with vanishing first Chern class; the product of a K3 surface and…

In this paper we show that a general element of $|-K_X|$ on a four-dimensional Fano manifold has at most terminal singularities. We then determine an explicit local expression of these singular points.

In this paper we consider double covers of the projective space in relation with the problem of extensions of varieties, specifically of extensions of canonical curves to $K3$ surfaces and Fano 3-folds. In particular we consider $K3$…

It was proved by J.~A.~Chen and M.~Chen that a terminal Fano $3$-fold $X$ satisfies $(-K_X)^3\geq \frac{1}{330}$. We show that a $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial terminal Fano $3$-fold $X$ with $\rho(X)=1$ and $(-K_X)^3=\frac{1}{330}$ is a weighted…

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…

In 1949 Fano published his last paper on $3$-folds with canonical sectional curves. There he constructed and described a $3$-fold of the type $X^{22}_3$ in ${\mathbb P}^{13}$ with canonical curve section, which we like to call Fano's last…

This article constructs a smooth weak Fano threefold of Picard number two with small anti-canonical morphism that arises as a blowup of a smooth curve of genus 5 and degree 8 in $\mathbb{P}^3$. While the existence of this weak Fano was…

Let X be a smooth, complex Fano 4-fold, and rho(X) its Picard number. We show that if rho(X)>12, then X is a product of del Pezzo surfaces. The proof relies on a careful study of divisorial elementary contractions f: X->Y such that the…

In this paper, we prove a special case of Campana--Peternell's conjecture in dimension 4. Specifically, we show that a projective smooth fourfold $X$ with $c^2_1(X)\cdot c_2(X)\neq 0$ and strictly nef anti-canonical divisor $-K_X$ is a Fano…

We construct several new families of Fano varieties of K3 type. We give a geometrical explanation of the K3 structure and we link some of them to projective families of irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds.

We prove divisorial canonicity of Fano hypersurfaces and double spaces of general position with elementary singularities.

For a $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano 3-fold $X$ on which $K_X$ is a canonical divisor, we investigate the geometry induced from the linear system $|-mK_X|$ in this paper and prove that the anti-$m$-canonical map $\varphi_{-m}$ is birational onto its…

For K\"ahler K3 surfaces we consider Kulikov models of type III tamed by a symplectic form. Our main result shows that the generic smooth fiber admits an almost toric fibration over the intersection complex, which inherits a natural nodal…

We classify primitive Fano threefolds in positive characteristic whose Picard numbers are at least two. We also classify Fano theefolds of Picard rank two.

We prove that the anti-canonical volume of an $n$-dimensional K-semistable Fano manifold that is not $\mathbb{P}^n$ is at most $2n^n$. Moreover, the volume is equal to $2n^n$ if and only if $X\cong \mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ or…

We show that the set of Fano varieties (with arbitrary singularities) whose anticanonical divisors have large Seshadri constants satisfies certain weak and birational boundedness. We also classify singular Fano varieties of dimension $n$…

A $K3$ surface with an ample divisor of self-intersection 2 is a double cover of the plane branched over a sextic curve. We conjecture that a similar statement holds for the generic couple $(X,H)$ with $X$ a deformation of $(K3)^{[n]}$ and…

A V_{12} Fano threefold is a smooth Fano threefold X of index 1 with Pic X = Z and (-K_X)^3=12. We show that the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on any V_{12} threefold X admits a semiorthogonal decomposition consisting of two…

Using results of our papers [19], [20] and [21] about classification of degenerations of Kahlerian K3 surfaces with finite symplectic automorphism groups, we classify Picard lattices of Kahlerian K3 surfaces. By classification we understand…

We classify compact K\"ahler manifolds with semi-positive holomorphic bisectional and big tangent bundles. We also classify compact complex surfaces with semi-positive tangent bundles and compact complex $3$-folds of the form $P(T^*X)$…
