We show that the alternating groups $\mathfrak{A}_5$ and $\mathfrak{A}_6$ are the only finite simple non-abelian subgroups of the group of birational selfmaps of the real three-dimensional projective space.
We study finite abelian groups acting on three-dimensional rationally connected varieties. We concentrate on the groups of K3 type, that is, abelian extensions by a cyclic group of groups that faithfully act on a K3 surface. In particular, if a finite abelian group faithfully acts on a threefold preserving a K3 surface (with at worst du Val singularities), then such a group is of K3 type. We prove a classification theorem for the groups of K3 type which can act on three-dimensional rationally connected varieties. We note the relation between certain groups of K3 type and K3 surfaces with higher Picard number.
We prove that a faithful group action on the smooth complete intersection $X$ of three divisors of bidegree $(1,1)$ in $\p^3\times\p^3$ is linearisable if and only if $\rk(\pic^G(X))\ne1$.
We classify $G$-Mori fibre spaces equivariantly birational to smooth quadric threefolds with fixed-point free actions of the alternating group $G=\mathfrak A_5$. We deduce that such quadric threefolds are $G$-solid and the $G$-actions on them are not projectively linearizable.
We give a complete solution of the linearization problem in the plane Cremona group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.
We study Fano threefolds that can be obtained by blowing up the three-dimensional projective space along a smooth curve of degree six and genus three. We produce many new K-stable examples of such threefolds, and we describe all finite groups that can act faithfully on them.
We classify $G$-solid rational surfaces over the field of complex numbers.
