On G-birational rigidity of projective spaces

In this paper, we study finite subgroups $G\subset\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbb{P}^n)$ such that $\mathbb{P}^n$ is $G$-birationally rigid. For each $n\geqslant 3$, we prove that $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbb{P}^n)$ contains at most finitely many such subgroups up to conjugation. For $n=4,5,7$, we prove that $\mathbb{P}^n$ is $G$-birationally superrigid if $G$ is a primitive subgroup isomorphic to $\mathrm{PSp}_{4}(\mathbf{F}_3)$, $\mathrm{PSU}_4(\mathbf{F}_3)\rtimes\boldsymbol{\mu}_2$, $\mathrm{O}_8^+(\mathbf{F}_2)\rtimes \boldsymbol{\mu}_2$, respectively.

Birational geometry of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 4

It is known that any Mori fiber space birational to a minimal smooth del Pezzo surface $S$ of degree $4$ is either a del Pezzo surface of degree $4$ itself, or a smooth cubic surface with a structure of a relatively minimal conic bundle. We show that any del Pezzo surface of degree $4$ birational to $S$ is actually isomorphic to $S$. Also, we sketch an equivariant version of this fact. On the way, we review the biregular classification of del Pezzo surfaces of degree $4$ obtained by A. N. Skorobogatov.

Finiteness of projective pluricanonical representation for automorphisms of complex manifolds

We study the action of the group of bimeromorphic automorphisms $\mathrm{Bim}(X)$ of a compact complex manifold $X$ on the image of the pluricanonical map, which we call the projective pluricanonical representation of this group. If $X$ is a Moishezon variety, then the image of $\mathrm{Bim}(X)$ via such a representation is a finite group by a classical result due to Deligne and Ueno. We prove that this image is a finite group under the assumption that for the Kodaira dimension $\kappa(X)$ of $X$ we have $\kappa(X)=\dim X-1$. To this aim, we prove a version of the canonical bundle formula in relative dimension $1$ which works for a proper morphism from a complex variety to a projective variety. In particular, this establishes the analytic version of Prokhorov--Shokurov conjecture in relative dimension $1$. Also, we observe that the analytic version of this conjecture does not hold in relative dimension $2$.

Automorphisms of surfaces over fields of positive characteristic

We study automorphism and birational automorphism groups of varieties over fields of positive characteristic from the point of view of Jordan and $p$-Jordan property. In particular, we show that the Cremona group of rank $2$ over a field of characteristic $p>0$ is $p$-Jordan, and the birational automorphism group of an arbitrary geometrically irreducible algebraic surface is nilpotently $p$-Jordan of class at most $2$. Also, we show that the automorphism group of a smooth geometrically irreducible projective variety of non-negative Kodaira dimension is Jordan in the usual sense.

Jordan property for Cremona group over a finite field

We show that the Cremona group of rank $2$ over a finite field is Jordan, and provide an upper bound for its Jordan constant which is sharp when the number of elements in the field is different from $2$, $4$, and $8$.

Kaehler-Einstein Fano threefolds of degree 22

We study the problem of existence of Kähler--Einstein metrics on smooth Fano threefolds of Picard rank one and anticanonical degree $22$ that admit a faithful action of the multiplicative group $\mathbb{C}^\ast$. We prove that, except possibly two explicitly described cases, all such smooth Fano threefolds are Kähler--Einstein.

Boundedness for finite subgroups of linear algebraic groups

We show the boundedness of finite subgroups in any anisotropic reductive algebraic group over a perfect field that contains all roots of 1. Also, we provide explicit bounds for orders of finite subgroups of automorphism groups of Severi-Brauer varieties and quadrics over such fields.

On automorphisms of quasi-smooth weighted complete intersections

We show that every reductive subgroup of the automorphism group of a quasi-smooth well formed weighted complete intersection is a restriction of a subgroup in the automorphism group in the ambient weighted projective space. Also, we provide examples demonstrating that an automorphism group of a quasi-smooth well formed Fano weighted complete intersection may be infinite and even non-reductive.

Bounded automorphism groups of compact complex surfaces

We classify compact complex surfaces whose groups of bimeromorphic selfmaps have bounded finite subgroups. We also prove that the stabilizer of a point in the automorphism group of a compact complex surface of zero Kodaira dimension, as well as the stabilizer of a point in the automorphism group of an arbitrary compact Kaehler manifold of non-negative Kodaira dimension, always has bounded finite subgroups.

Automorphisms of pointless surfaces

For a geometrically rational surface X over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from 2 and 3 that contains all roots of 1, we show that either X is birational to a product of a projective line and a conic, or the group of birational automorphisms of X has bounded finite subgroups. As a key step in the proof, we show boundedness of finite subgroups in any anisotropic reductive algebraic group over a perfect field that contains all roots of 1. Also, we provide applications to Jordan property for groups of birational automorphisms.

Finite groups acting on elliptic surfaces

We show that automorphism groups of Hopf and Kodaira surfaces have unbounded finite subgroups. For elliptic fibrations on Hopf, Kodaira, bielliptic, and K3 surfaces, we make some observations on finite groups acting along the fibers and on the base of such a fibration.
