A generalization of S. Mukai's conjecture says that if $X$ is a Fano $n$-fold with Picard number $\rho_X$ and pseudo-index $i_X$, then $\rho_X(i_X-1) \leq n$, with equality if and only if $X \cong (\mathbb{P}^{i_X-1})^{\rho_X}$. In this…

A normal projective variety X is called Fano if a multiple of the anticanonical Weil divisor, -K_X, is an ample Cartier divisor, the index of a Fano variety is the number i(X):=sup{t: -K_X= tH, for some ample Cartier divisor H}. Mukai…

Suppose $\pi : X \to Y$ is a smooth blow-up along a submanifold $Z$ of $Y$ between complex Fano manifolds $X$ and $Y$ of pseudo-indices $i_X$ and $i_Y$ respectively (recall that $i_X$ is defined by $i_X := \min \{-K_X \cdot C | C {is a…

In this paper we classify mildly singular Fano varieties with maximal Picard number whose effective divisors are numerically eventually free.

Let $X$ be an $n$-dimensional complex Fano manifolds $(n\geq 3)$. Assume that $X$ contains a divisor $A$, which is isomorphic to a rational homogeneous space with Picard number one, such that the conormal bundle $\mathscr{N}^*_{A/X}$ is…

In this paper we classify n-dimensional Fano manifolds with index >=n-2 and positive second Chern character.

We study Fano 3-folds with Fano index 2: that is, 3-folds X with rank Pic(X) = 1, Q-factorial terminal singularities and -K_X = 2A for an ample Weil divisor A. We give a first classification of all possible Hilbert series of such polarised…

Let X be a smooth Fano variety of dimension at least 4. We show that if X has an elementary birational contraction sending a divisor to a curve, then the Picard number of X is smaller or equal to 5.

In this article, we determine all equivariant compactifications of the three-dimensional vector group $\mathbf{G}_a^3$ which are smooth Fano threefolds with Picard number greater or equal than two.

Let $X$ be a $\mathbb Q$-factorial canonical weak Fano variety of dimension $n\geq 2$. We show that if the $\mathbb Q$-Fano index $q_{\mathbb Q}(X)\geq 3$, then $X$ satisfies a Kawamata--Miyaoka type inequality: \[c_1(X)^n\leq 4\,\hat…

In this paper we study smooth, complex Fano 4-folds X with large Picard number rho(X), with techniques from birational geometry. Our main result is that if X is isomorphic in codimension one to the blow-up of a smooth projective 4-fold Y at…

In this work we provide effective bounds and classification results for rational $\QQ$-factorial Fano varieties with a complexity-one torus action and Picard number one depending on the invariants dimension and Picard index. This…

Let X be a smooth complex Fano variety. We define and study 'quasi elementary' contractions of fiber type f: X -> Y. These have the property that rho(X) is at most rho(Y)+rho(F), where rho is the Picard number and F is a general fiber of f.…

Let $X$ be a Fano variety with at worst isolated quotient singularities. Our result asserts that if $C \cdot (-K_X) > max\{\frac{n}{2}+1,\frac{2n}{3}\}$ for every curve $C \subset X$, then $\rho_X=1$.

Let X be a Q-factorial Gorenstein Fano variety. Suppose that the singularities of X are canonical and that the locus where they are non-terminal has dimension zero. Let D be a prime divisor of X. We show that rho_X - rho_D < 9 (where rho is…

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…

Let X be a smooth, complex Fano 4-fold, and rho(X) its Picard number. If X contains a prime divisor D with rho(X)-rho(D)>2, then either X is a product of del Pezzo surfaces, or rho(X)=5 or 6. In this setting, we completely classify the case…

We classify the smooth Fano 4-folds of Picard number two that have a general hypersurface Cox ring.

A projective log variety (X, D) is called "a log Fano manifold" if X is smooth and if D is a reduced simple normal crossing divisor on X with -(K_X+D) ample. The n-dimensional log Fano manifolds (X, D) with nonzero D are classified in this…

Let X be a smooth complex Fano 4-fold. We show that if X has a small elementary contraction, then the Picard number rho(X) of X is at most 12. This result is based on a careful study of the geometry of X, on which we give a lot of…
