Contractions of smooth varieties. II. Computations and applications

Marco Andreatta, Jarosław A. Wiśniewski (1998)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Una contrazione su una varietà proiettiva liscia X è data da una mappa φ : X Z propria, suriettiva e a fibre connesse in una varietà irriducibile normale Z . La contrazione si dice di Fano-Mori se inoltre - K X è φ -ampio. Nel lavoro, naturale seguito e completamento delle ricerche introdotte in [A-W3], si studiano diversi aspetti delle contrazioni di Fano-Mori attraverso esempi (capitolo 1) e teoremi di struttura (capitoli 3 e 4). Si discutono anche alcune applicazioni allo studio di morfismi birazionali propri...

Cyclic coverings of Fano threefolds

Sławomir Cynk (2003)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We describe a series of Calabi-Yau manifolds which are cyclic coverings of a Fano 3-fold branched along a smooth divisor. For all the examples we compute the Euler characteristic and the Hodge numbers. All examples have small Picard number ϱ = h 1 , 1 .

Equivalence of families of singular schemes on threefolds and on ruled fourfolds.

Flaminio Flamini (2004)

Collectanea Mathematica

The main purpose of this paper is twofold. We first analyze in detail the meaningful geometric aspect of the method introduced in [12], concerning families of irreducible, nodal curves on a smooth, projective threefold X. This analysis gives some geometric interpretations not investigated in [12] and highlights several interesting connections with families of other singular geometric objects related to X and to other varieties. Then we use this method to study analogous problems for families of...

Estimates of the number of rational mappings from a fixed variety to varieties of general type

Tanya Bandman, Gerd Dethloff (1997)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

First we find effective bounds for the number of dominant rational maps f : X Y between two fixed smooth projective varieties with ample canonical bundles. The bounds are of the type { A · K X n } { B · K X n } 2 , where n = dim X , K X is the canonical bundle of X and A , B are some constants, depending only on n .Then we show that for any variety X there exist numbers c ( X ) and C ( X ) with the following properties:For any threefold Y of general type the number of dominant rational maps f : X Y is bounded above by c ( X ) .The number of threefolds Y , modulo birational...

Explicit birational geometry of threefolds of general type, I

Jungkai A. Chen, Meng Chen (2010)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Let V be a complex nonsingular projective 3-fold of general type. We prove P 12 ( V ) : = dim H 0 ( V , 12 K V ) > 0 and P m 0 ( V ) > 1 for some positive integer m 0 24 . A direct consequence is the birationality of the pluricanonical map ϕ m for all m 126 . Besides, the canonical volume Vol ( V ) has a universal lower bound ν ( 3 ) 1 63 · 126 2 .
