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.

Smooth Fano 3-folds satisfying Condition (A)

A smooth variety is said to satisfy Condition (A) if every finite abelian subgroup of its automorphism group has a fixed point. We classify smooth Fano 3-folds that satisfy Condition (A).

K-stability of Fano 3-folds in the World of Null-A

A variety is said to satisfy Condition (A) if every finite abelian subgroup of its automorphism group has a fixed point. We show that a smooth Fano 3-fold not satisfying Condition (A) is K-polystable unless it is contained in eight exceptional deformation families (seven of them consists of one smooth member, and one of them has one-parameter moduli).

K-stability of pointless del Pezzo surfaces and Fano 3-folds

We explore connections between existence of $\Bbbk$-rational points for Fano varieties defined over $\Bbbk$, a subfield of $\mathbb{C}$, and existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on their geometric models. First, we show that geometric models of del Pezzo surfaces with at worst quotient singularities defined over $\Bbbk\subset\mathbb{C}$ admit (orbifold) K\"ahler--Einstein metrics if they do not have $\Bbbk$-rational points. Then we prove the same result for smooth Fano 3-folds with 8 exceptions. Consequently, we explicitly describe several families of pointless Fano 3-folds whose geometric models admit K\"ahler-Einstein metrics. In particular, we obtain new examples of prime Fano 3-folds of genus $12$ that admit K\"ahler--Einstein metrics. Our result can also be used to prove existence of rational points for certain Fano varieties, for example for any smooth Fano 3-fold over $\Bbbk\subset\mathbb{C}$ whose geometric model is strictly K-semistable.

Real singular Del Pezzo surfaces and 3-folds fibred by rational curves, II

Let W -> X be a real smooth projective 3-fold fibred by rational curves. J. Koll\'ar proved that, if W(R) is orientable, then a connected component N of W(R) is essentially either a Seifert fibred manifold or a connected sum of lens spaces. Our Main Theorem, answering in the affirmative three questions of Koll\'ar, gives sharp estimates on the number and the multiplicities of the Seifert fibres and on the number and the torsions of the lens spaces when X is a geometrically rational surface. When N is Seifert fibred over a base orbifold F, our result generalizes Comessatti's theorem on smooth real rational surfaces: F cannot be simultaneously orientable and of hyperbolic type. We show as a surprise that, unlike in Comessatti's theorem, there are examples where F is non orientable, of hyperbolic type, and X is minimal. The technique we use is to construct Seifert fibrations as projectivized tangent bundles of Du Val surfaces.

Real algebraic morphisms on 2-dimensional conic bundles

Given two nonsingular real algebraic varieties V and W, we consider the problem of deciding whether a smooth map f: V -> W can be approximated by regular maps in the space of smooth maps from V to W. Our main result is a complete solution to this problem in case W is the usual 2-dimensional sphere and V is a real algebraic surface of negative Kodaira dimension.
