We develop a theory of Prym varieties and cubic threefolds over fields of characteristic $2$. As an application, we prove that smooth cubic threefolds are non-rational over an arbitrary field and solve a conjecture of Deligne regarding…

We survey recent developments on rationality problems for algebraic varieties, with a particular emphasis on cycle-theoretic and combinatorial methods and their applications to hypersurfaces.

En appliquant des m\'ethodes d\'evelopp\'ees par Koll\'ar, Voisin, nous-m\^emes, Totaro, nous montrons qu'un rev\^etement cyclique de $\mathbb P_{\mathbb C}^n, n\geq 3$ de degr\'e premier $p$, ramifi\'e le long d'une hypersurface tr\`es…

It is proved that a three-dimensional double cone is a birationally rigid variety. We also compute the group of birational automorphisms of such a variety. This work is based on the method of "untwisting" maximal singularities of linear…

We improve a bound due to the second author on number of rational points on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ over finite fields and look at families of surfaces that achieve or nearly achieve this bound, for which we compute their exact…

We show the birational boundedness of anti-canonical irreducible hypersurfaces which form 3-fold plt pairs. We also treat a collection of Du Val K3 surfaces which is birationally bounded but unbounded.

We study unirationality of a Del Pezzo surface of degree two over a given (non algebraically closed) field, under the assumption that it admits at least one rational double point over an algebraic closure of the base field. As corollaries…

If a smooth, geometrically rational surface over a finite field is not rational over that field, then over some finite extension of that field the Brauer group of the surface is nonzero. In particular such a surface is not stably rational.…

In this paper we classify three-dimensional singular cubic hypersurfaces with an action of a finite group $G$, which are not $G$-rational, are not $G$-birationally isomorphic to a quadric and have no birational structure of $G$-Mori fiber…

We study birational transformations P^n--->S \subseteq P^N defined by linear systems of quadrics whose base locus is smooth and irreducible of dimension \leq3 and whose image S is sufficiently regular.

We prove that if the bicanonical map of a minimal surface of general type S with p_{g}=q=1 and K^2=8 is non birational, then it is a double cover onto a rational surface. An application of this theorem is the complete classification of…

We determine birational superrigidity for a quasi-smooth prime Fano 3-fold of codimension 4 with no projection centers. In particular we prove birational superrigidity for Fano 3-folds of codimension 4 with no projection centers which are…

We study rationality problems for smooth complete intersections of two quadrics. We focus on the three-dimensional case, with a view toward understanding the invariants governing the rationality of a geometrically rational threefold over a…

A `trinomial hyper surface' is defined in \S 1 below. In this article, I provide a supportive reasoning towards the fact that there can be examples of trinomial hyper surfaces (at least over fields of characteristic 2) for which the…

Any minimal Del Pezzo G-surface S of degree smaller than 3 is G-birationally rigid. We classify those which are G-birationally superrigid and for those which fail to be so, we describe the equations of a set of generators for the infinite…

In this paper a large class of Fano double quadrics and cubics are shown to be factorial and birationally superrigid, in particular they admit no non-trivial structure of a fibration with rationally connected fibres and are therefore…

We propose and compare various techiques available to produce smooth cubic hypersurfaces over a non-algebraically-closed field which have rational points but which are not stably rational over their ground field.

We study those Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean space which are foliated by circles or by straight lines. The former, which we call cyclic, come in three types, each one being described by means of, respectively, a planar curve, a…

Let $S$ be a rational surface with $\dim|-K_S|\ge 1$ and let $\pi: X\rightarrow S$ be a ramified cyclic covering from a nonruled smooth surface $X$. We show that for any integer $k\ge 3$ and ample divisor $A$ on $S$, the adjoint divisor…

We study the rationality of some geometrically rational three-dimensional conic and quadric surface bundles, defined over the reals and more general real closed fields, for which the real locus is connected and the intermediate Jacobian…
