Birational geometry

This variety is not rational but unirational.


This variety is primitive.

This variety can be blown up (in a curve) to

  • 2-5, in a curve of genus 1
  • 2-11, in a curve of genus 0

This variety is fibre-like, i.e. it can appear as the fibre of a Mori fibre space.

Period sequence

The following period sequences are associated to this Fano 3-fold:

GRDB
#106
Fanosearch
#0
Semiorthogonal decompositions

There exist interesting semiorthogonal decompositions, but this data is not yet added.

Structure of quantum cohomology

By Hertling–Manin–Teleman we have that quantum cohomology cannot be generically semisimple, as $\mathrm{h}^{1,2}\neq 0$.

Zero section description

Fano 3-folds from homogeneous vector bundles over Grassmannians gives the following description(s):

variety
$\mathbb{P}^4$
bundle
$\mathcal{O}(3)$
