Unprojection is a theory due to Reid which constructs more complicated rings starting from simpler data. The idea of unprojection is intended for serial use. Papadakis and Neves developed a theory of parallel unprojection. In the present…

Unprojection theory is a philosophy due to Miles Reid, which becomes a useful tool in algebraic geometry for the construction and the study of new interesting geometric objects such as algebraic surfaces and 3-folds. In the present work we…

Explicit birational geometry of 3-folds represents a second phase of Mori theory, going beyond the foundational work of the 1980s. This paper is a tutorial and colloquial introduction to the explicit classification of Fano 3-folds (Q-Fano…

Answering a question of M. Reid, we define and prove the Gorensteiness of the type II unprojection.

Kustin--Miller unprojection constructs more complicated Gorenstein rings from simpler ones. Geometrically, it inverts certain projections, and appears in the constructions of explicit birational geometry. However, it is often desirable to…

Gorenstein projection plays a key role in birational geometry; the typical example is the linear projection of a del Pezzo surface of degree d to one of degree d-1, but variations on the same idea provide many of the classical and modern…

We show that a wide range of Fano varieties of K3 type, recently constructed by Bernardara, Fatighenti, Manivel and Tanturri, have a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen-Vial. It follows that the Chow ring of…

We describe elementary transformations between minimal models of rational surfaces in terms of unprojections. These do not fit into the framework of Kustin-Miller unprojections as introduced by Papadakis and Reid, since we have to leave the…

This work is part of the Graded Ring Database project [GRDB], and is a sequel to [Altinok's 1998 PhD thesis] and [Altinok, Brown and Reid, Fano 3-folds, K3 surfaces and graded rings, in SISTAG (Singapore, 2001), Contemp. Math. 314, 2002,…

We study Q-factorial terminal Fano 3-folds whose equations are modelled on those of the Segre embedding of P^2 x P^2. These lie in codimension 4 in their total anticanonical embedding and have Picard rank 2. They fit into the current state…

We construct a 4-dimensional family of surfaces of general type with p_g=0 and K^2=3 and fundamental group Z/2xQ_8, where Q_8 is the quaternion group. The family constructed contains the Burniat surfaces with K^2=3. Additionally, we…

This note mainly studies the generic finiteness of \phi_m of a complex projective 3-fold of general type. A new result on the classification to bicanonical pencil for Gorenstein 3-folds is attached in the last section.

In this note we study Fano threefolds with noncyclic torsion in the divisor class group. Since they can all be obtained as quotients of Fano threefolds, we get also all examples that can be obtained as quotients of low codimension Fanos in…

We establish the vanishing of the third unramified cohomology group for many types of Fano hypersurfaces in projective space over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, and over a finite field. For cubic hypersurfaces…

A Fano-Enriques threefold is a three-dimensional non-Gorenstein Fano variety of index 1 with at most canonical singularities. We study the birational geometry of Fano-Enriques threefolds with terminal cyclic quotient singularities. We…

We classify Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein singularities whose anticanonical linear system has no base points but does not give an embedding, and we classify anticanonically embedded Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein…

The type II_1 unprojection is, by definition, the generic complete intersection type II unprojection, in the sense of [Papadakis, Type II unprojection, J. Algebraic Geometry, 15 (2006) 399--414] Section 3.1, for the parameter value k = 1,…

We classify some special classes of non-rational Fano threefolds with terminal singularities. In particular, all such hyperelliptic and trigonal varieties are found.

We investigate versions of the Shafarevich conjecture, as proved for curves and abelian varieties by Faltings, for other classes of varieties. We first obtain analogues for certain Fano threefolds. We use these results to prove the…

We present a combinatorial criterion on reflexive polytopes of dimension 3 which gives a local-to-global obstruction for the smoothability of the corresponding Fano toric threefolds. As a result, we show examples of singular Gorenstein Fano…
