Let $X$ be a smooth variety over a field of characteristic $p$. It is a natural question whether the Frobenius pushforwards $F_*^e\mathcal O_X$ of the structure sheaf are tilting bundles. We show if $X$ is a smooth del Pezzo surface of…

By a result of Mukai, the non-abelian Brill-Noether locus X = M_C(2,K:3F) of type II, defined by a stable rank 2 vector bundle F of invariant 3 over a plane quartic curve C, is a prime Fano 3-fold X of degree 16. The associate ruled surface…

We give an explicit construction for the extension of a symmetric determinantal quartic K3 surface to a Fano 6-fold. Remarkably, the moduli of the 6-fold extension are in one-to-one correspondence with the moduli of the quartic surface. As…

A conjecture of Manin predicts the distribution of rational points on Fano varieties. We provide a framework for proofs of Manin's conjecture for del Pezzo surfaces over imaginary quadratic fields, using universal torsors. Some of our tools…

We adapt for algebraically closed fields $k$ of characteristic greater than $2$ two results of Voisin, on the decomposition of the diagonal of a smooth cubic hypersurface $X$ of dimension $3$ over $\mathbb C$, namely: the equivalence…

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…

We prove that a smooth projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$ with strictly nef third, fourth or $(n-1)$-th exterior power of the tangent bundle is a Fano variety. Moreover, in the first two cases, we provide a classification for $X$ under…

In this paper, we study the algebraic hyperbolicity of very general surfaces in general Fano threefolds with Picard number one. We completely classify the algebraically hyperbolicity of those surfaces, except for surfaces in weighted…

We prove that any smooth cubic surface defined over any number field satisfies the lower bound predicted by Manin's conjecture possibly after an extension of small degree.

We establish estimates for the number of solutions of certain affine congruences. These estimates are then used to prove Manin's conjecture for a cubic surface split over Q and whose singularity type is D_4. This improves on a result of…

This note is about the Chow groups of a certain family of smooth cubic fourfolds. This family is characterized by the property that each cubic fourfold $X$ in the family has an involution such that the induced involution on the Fano variety…

In this paper, we study an analogue of the Tate conjecture for $K_2$ of U, the complement of split multiplicative fibers in an elliptic surface. A main result is to give an upper bound of the rank of the Galois fixed part of the etale…

We prove that a prime Fano threefold of genus 8 over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic is isomorphic to a linear section of the Grassmannian variety Gr(2, 6). As applications, it is shown that a prime Fano threefold…

We find new lower bounds on the torsion orders of very general Fano hypersurfaces over (uncountable) fields of arbitrary characteristic. Our results imply that unirational parametrizations of most Fano hypersurfaces need to have enormously…

We show that Fano lattice polygons define a class of balanced quivers with interesting properties. The combinatorics of these quivers is related to singularities of the underlying toric Fano surface. This allows us to show that every Fano…

We prove Manin's conjecture over imaginary quadratic number fields for a cubic surface with a singularity of type E_6.

We address the following question: When an affine cone over a smooth Fano threefold admits an effective action of the additive group? In this paper we deal with Fano threefolds of index 1 and Picard number 1. Our approach is based on a…

The Fano surface $F$ of lines in the cubic threefold $V$ is naturally embedded in the intermediate Jacobian $J(V)$, we call "Fano cycle" the difference $F-F^-$, this is homologous to 0 in $J(V)$. We study the normal function on the moduli…

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…

For a general cubic fourfold $X\subset\mathbb{P}^5$ with Fano scheme of lines $F$, we prove a number of properties of the universal family of lines $I\to F$ and various subloci. We first describe the moduli and ramification theory of the…
