A conjecture of Pukhlikov states that a smooth Fano variety of dimension at least four and index one is birationally rigid. We show that a general member of the linear system given by the ample generator of the Picard group of the moduli…

Recently, Kanemitsu has discovered a counterexample to the long-standing conjecture that the tangent bundle of a Fano manifold of Picard number one is (semi)stable. His counterexample is a smooth horospherical variety. There is a weaker…

We construct new families of smooth Fano fourfolds with Picard rank $1$ which contain open $\Bbb A^1$-cylinders, that is, Zariski open subsets of the form $Z \times \Bbb A^1$, where $Z$ is a quasiprojective variety. In particular, we show…

For a complex connected semisimple linear algebraic group $G$ of adjoint type and of rank $n$, De Concini and Procesi constructed its wonderful compactification $\bar{G}$, which is a smooth Fano $G \times G$-variety of Picard number $n$…

An almost Fano bundle is a vector bundle on a smooth projective variety that its projectivization is an almost Fano variety. In this paper, we prove that almost Fano bundles exist only on almost Fano manifolds and study rank 2 almost Fano…

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 construct infinite families of non-simple isotopy classes of links in overtwisted contact structures on $S^1$-bundles over surfaces. These examples include: (1) a pair of Legendrian links that are not Legendrian isotopic, but which are…

We construct prime Fano manifolds from spin representations of $Spin_n$ for $n\le 14$. In this range, and if $n\ne 13$, the projectivizations of these representations are prehomogeneous, and we deduce that our Fano manifolds are locally…

We construct new families of smooth Fano fourfolds with Picard rank 1, which contain cylinders, i.e., Zariski open subsets of form $Z\times A^1$, where $Z$ is a quasiprojective variety. The affine cones over such a fourfold admit effective…

A Fano variety of Picard number $1$ is said to be \textit{birationally solid} if it is not birational to a Mori fiber space over a positive dimensional base. In this paper we complete the classification of quasi-smooth birationally solid…

We give the full classification of smooth toric Legendrian subvarieties in projective space. We also prove that under some minor assumptions the group of linear automorphisms preserving given Legendrian subvariety preserves the contact…

We give a complete classification of smooth, complex projective Fano 4-folds of Picard number 3 having a prime divisor of Picard number 1. They form 28 distinct families, and we compute the main numerical invariants, study the base locus of…

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 the Picard variety of the Fano surface of nodal and mildly cuspidal cubic threefolds in arbitrary characteristic by relating divisors on the Fano surface to divisors on the symmetric product of a curve of genus 4.

For any $n\geq 3$, we explicitly construct smooth projective toric $n$-folds of Picard number $\geq 5$, where any nontrivial nef line bundles are big.

We show that Fano 4-folds with Picard number 5 have Lefschetz defect 3 if and only if they are toric of combinatorial type K. We also find a characterization for such varieties in terms of Picard number of prime divisors. Moreover, we…

In the present paper we discuss coherent sheaves of rank > 1 whose projectivization gives rise to smooth varieties - varieties of this type are also called smooth scrolls. We prove some basic properties of these varieties and we give some…

The present paper provides a geometric characterization of complete flag varieties for semisimple algebraic groups. Namely, if $X$ is a Fano manifold whose all elementary contractions are $\mathbb P^1$-fibrations then $X$ is isomorphic to…

The paper is joined with arXiv:0911.5428 and improved. We prove that Landau-Ginzburg models for all 17 smooth Fano threefolds with Picard rank 1 can be represented as Laurent polynomials in 3 variables exhibiting them case by case. We check…

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.
