Let X be a Fano manifold of pseudoindex i_X whose Picard number is at least two and let R be an extremal ray of X with exceptional locus Exc(R). We prove an inequality which bounds the length of R in terms of i_X and of the dimension of…

We study Fano manifolds of pseudoindex greater than one and dimension greater than five, which are blow-ups of smooth varieties along smooth centers of dimension equal to the pseudoindex of the manifold. We obtain a classification of the…

For $n\geq 4$, let $X$ be a complex smooth Fano $n$-fold whose minimal anticanonical degree of non-free rational curves on $X$ is at least $n-2$. We classify extremal contractions of such varieties. As an application, we obtain a…

Let $X$ be a complex smooth Fano variety of dimension at least four. In this paper, we classify such $X$ when the pseudoindex is at least $n-2$ and the Picard number greater than one. We also discuss the relations between pseudoindex and…

For a Fano manifold of pseudo-index at least 3 and $c_1^2-2c_2$ nef, we show irreducibility of certain spaces of curves on the Fano manifold implies the manifold is a union of rational surfaces.

Let $X$ be a complex smooth Fano variety of dimension $n$. In this paper, we give a classification of such $X$ when the pseudoindex is equal to $\dfrac{\dim X+1}{2}$ and the Picard number greater than one.

We study Fano manifolds $X$ admitting an unsplit dominating family of rational curves and we prove that the Generalized Mukai Conjecture holds if $X$ has pseudoindex $i_X = (\dim X)/3$ or dimension $\dim X=6$. We also show that this…

We prove that Generalized Mukai Conjecture holds for Fano manifolds $X$ of pseudoindex $i_X \ge (\dim X +3)/3$. We also give different proofs of the conjecture for Fano fourfolds and fivefolds.

Generalizing a question of Mukai, we conjecture that a Fano manifold $X$ with Picard number $\rho_X$ and pseudo-index $\iota_X$ satisfies $\rho_X (\iota_X-1) \le \dim(X)$. We prove this inequality in several situations: $X$ is a Fano…

Let $X$ be a complex smooth Fano variety of dimension $n$. Assume that $X$ admits a birational contraction of an extremal ray. In this paper, we give a classification of such $X$ when the pseudoindex is equal to $\frac{\dim X}{2}$.

The minimum of intersection numbers of the anti-canonical divisor with rational curves on a Fano manifold is called pseudo-index. It is expected that the intersection number of anti-canonical divisor attains to the minimum on an extremal…

We classify Fano fivefolds of index two which are blow-ups of smooth manifolds along a smooth center.

As a generalization of the Mukai conjecture, we conjecture that the Fano manifolds $X$ which satisfy the property $\rho_X(r_X-1)\geq\dim X-1$ have very special structure, where $\rho_X$ is the Picard number of $X$ and $r_X$ is the index of…

Let $X$ be a smooth $n$-dimensional Fano hypersurface in $\mathbb P^{n+1}$ where $n \geq 3$. Let $\Gamma$ be a smooth positive-dimensional complete intersection of $X$, a hypersurface and one of more hyperplanes in $\mathbb P^{n+1}$. Let $Y…

Let $f:Y\to X$ be a finite morphism between Fano manifolds $Y$ and $X$ such that the Fano index of $X$ is greater than 1. On the one hand, when both $X$ and $Y$ are fourfolds of Picard number 1, we show that the degree of $f$ is bounded in…

Let $X_0$ be a smooth projective threefold which is Fano or which has Picard number $1$. Let $\pi :X\rightarrow X_0$ be a finite composition of blowups along smooth centers. We show that for "almost all" of such $X$, if $f\in Aut(X)$ then…

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…

For a smooth curve $B$ over an algebraically closed field $k$, for every $B$-flat complete intersection $X_B$ in $B\times_{\text{Spec}\ k} \mathbb{P}^n_k$ of type $(d_1,\dots,d_c)$, if the Fano index is $\geq 2$ and if…

Let $X$ be a smooth Fano threefold over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. Assume that $|-K_X|$ is very ample and each of the index and the Picard number is equal to one. We prove that $3 \leq g \leq 12$ and $g \neq…

The Picard number of a Fano manifold X obtained by blowing up a curve in a smooth projective variety is known to be at most 5, in any dimension greater than or equal to 4. We show that the Picard number attains to the maximal if and only if…
