We prove that the deformations of a smooth complex Fano threefold X with Picard number 1, index 1, and degree 10, are unobstructed. The differential of the period map has two-dimensional kernel. We construct two two-dimensional components…

Among smooth non-rational Fano 3-folds, the non-hyperelliptic Fano 3-fold X(10) of genus 6 has the unique property to admit a non-trivial orbit of birationally isomorphic 3-folds, inside its moduli space. Here we prove that these orbits…

A Fano variety of Picard number $1$ is said to be \textit{birationally solid} if it is not birational to a Mori fiber space over a positive dimensional base. In this paper we complete the classification of quasi-smooth birationally solid…

We study the Picard variety of the Fano surface of nodal and mildly cuspidal cubic threefolds in arbitrary characteristic by relating divisors on the Fano surface to divisors on the symmetric product of a curve of genus 4.

We prove that a quasi-smooth Fano threefold hypersurface is birationally rigid if and only if it has Fano index one.

We prove that a smooth Fano hypersurface $V=V_M\subset{\Bbb P}^M$, $M\geq 6$, is birationally superrigid. In particular, it cannot be fibered into uniruled varieties by a non-trivial rational map and each birational map onto a minimal Fano…

We complete the study of birational geometry of Fano fiber spaces $\pi\colon V\to {\mathbb P}^1$, the fiber of which is a Fano double hypersurface of index 1. For each family of these varieties we either prove birational rigidity or produce…

A complex smooth prime Fano threefold $X$ of genus $9$ is related via projective duality to a quartic plane curve $\Gamma$. We use this setup to study the restriction of rank $2$ stable sheaves with prescribed Chern classes on $X$ to an…

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). It is proven that the moduli space of stable rank-2 vector bundles with Chern classes…

We discuss the work of Corrado Segre on nodal cubic hypersurfaces with emphasis on the cases of 6-nodal and 10-nodal cubics. In particular, we discuss the Fano surface of lines and conic bundle structures on such threefolds. We review some…

We prove that every non-trivial structure of a rationally connected fibre space (and so every structure of a Mori-Fano fibre space) on a general (in the sense of Zariski topology) hypersurface of degree $M$ in the $(M+1)$-dimensional…

Iterating the procedure of making a double cover over a given variety, we construct large families of smooth higher-dimensional Fano varieties of index 1. These varieties can be realized as complete intersections in various weighted…

We prove categorical Torelli theorems for four families of Fano double covers with Picard rank greater than 1. Among these is the family of Verra fourfolds. The other three families manifest as double covers of Fano threefolds, branched in…

We classify all 1-nodal degenerations of smooth Fano threefolds with Picard number 1 (both nonfactorial and factorial) and describe their geometry. In particular, we describe a relation between such degenerations and smooth Fano threefolds…

We prove the $\mathbb{Q}$-factoriality of a nodal hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{4}$ of degree $n$ with at most ${\frac{(n-1)^{2}}{4}}$ nodes and the $\mathbb{Q}$-factoriality of a double cover of $\mathbb{P}^{3}$ branched over a nodal…

We study birational geometry of Fano varieties, realized as double covers $\sigma\colon V\to {\mathbb P}^M$, $M\geq 5$, branched over generic hypersurfaces $W=W_{2(M-1)}$ of degree $2(M-1)$. We prove that the only structures of a rationally…

We prove that every quasi-smooth hypersurface in the 95 families of weighted Fano threefold hypersurfaces is birationally rigid.

We give conditions for a uniruled variety of dimension at least 2 to be non-solid. This study provides further evidence to a conjecture by Abban and Okada on the solidity of Fano 3-folds. To complement our results we write explicit…

We show that any quasismooth Fano threefold weighted complete intersections of type $(12, 14)$ in $\mathbb{P} (1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 11)$ is birationally solid.

We characterize the birational geometry of some hyperk\"ahler fourfolds of Picard rank $3$ obtained as the Fano varieties of lines on cubic fourfolds containing pairs of cubic scrolls. In each of the two cases considered, we identify all of…
