Abstract
We study obstructions to rationality on a nodal Fano threefold that is a double cover of a smooth quadric threefold ramified over an intersection with a quartic threefold in . We prove that if admits an Artin–Mumford obstruction to rationality then it lies in one of three explicitly described families. Conversely, a general element of any of these families admits an Artin–Mumford obstruction to rationality. Only one of these three families was known before; other two families of nodal Fano threefolds with obstructions to rationality are new.
我们研究了节点法诺三折 M $M$的合理性障碍,它是光滑四元三折的双盖,与 P 4 $\mathbb {P}^4$ 中的四元三折相交。我们证明,如果 M $M$ 存在阿尔丁-芒福德理性障碍,那么它就属于三个明确描述的族之一。反之,这些族中任何一个族的一般元素都存在阿廷-芒福德理性障碍。这三个系中只有一个系是已知的,其他两个具有合理性障碍的节点法诺三折叠系都是新的。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the London Mathematical Society has been publishing leading research in a broad range of mathematical subject areas since 1926. The Journal welcomes papers on subjects of general interest that represent a significant advance in mathematical knowledge, as well as submissions that are deemed to stimulate new interest and research activity.
