Abstract

We consider some families of smooth Fano hypersurfaces Xn+2X_{n+2} in Pn+2×P3{\bf P}^{n+2} \times {\bf P}^3 given by a homogeneous polynomial of bidegree (1,3)(1,3). For these varieties we obtain lower bounds for the number of FF-rational points of bounded anticanonical height in arbitrary nonempty Zariski open subset UXn+2U \subset X_{n+2}. These bounds contradict previous expectations about the distribution of FF-rational points of bounded height on Fano varieties.
