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.

Let X be a complex, Gorenstein, Q-factorial, toric Fano variety. We prove two conjectures on the maximal Picard number of X in terms of its dimension and its pseudo-index, and characterize the boundary cases. Equivalently, we determine the…

We prove the following main result: Let X be a Fano 3-fold with terminal Q-factorial singularities and X does not have a small extremal ray and a face of Kodaira dimension 1 or 2 for Mori polyhedron of X. Then the Picard number \rho (X) <…

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…

Let X be a Fano variety of dimension n, pseudoindex i_X and Picard number \rho_X. A generalization of a conjecture of Mukai says that \rho_X(i_X-1)\le n. We prove that the conjecture holds if: a) X has pseudoindex i_X \ge \frac{n+3}{3} and…

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…

Using a construction due to C. Casagrande and further developed by the author, we prove that the Picard number of a non-smooth Fano 3-fold with isolated factorial canonical singularities, is at most 6.

Let $X$ be a $\mathbb Q$-factorial weak Fano $3$-fold with at worst isolated canonical singularities. We show that the $\mathbb Q$-Fano index of $X$ is at most $61$.

We prove that the degree of Fano threefolds with terminal Q-factorial singularities and Picard number one is at most 125/2 and the bound is sharp.

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…

We show that the optimal upper bound for the anticanonical degrees of non-Gorenstein $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial canonical Fano threefolds with Picard number one is 200/3.

We show that for a $\mathbb Q$-factorial canonical Fano $3$-fold $X$ of Picard number $1$, $(-K_X)^3\leq 72$. The main tool is a Kawamata--Miyaoka type inequality which relates $(-K_X)^3$ with $\hat{c}_2(X)\cdot c_1(X)$, where…

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…

We obtain a classification of a Q-factorial Q-Fano 3-fold $X$ with the following properties: the Picard number of $X$ is 1; the Gorenstein index of $X$ is 2; the Fano index of $X$ is 1/2; $h^0 (-K_X) \geq 4$; there exists an index 2 point…

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…

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…

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.

Mukai varieties are Fano varieties of Picard number one and coindex three. In genus seven to ten they are linear sections of some special homogeneous varieties. We describe the generic automorphism groups of these varieties. When they are…

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 provide a complete classification of Fano threefolds X having canonical Gorenstein singularities and the anticanonical degree (-KX)^3 equal 64.
