K-stable Fano threefolds of rank 2 and degree 28

Abstract

Moduli spaces of Fano varieties have historically been difficult to construct. However, recent work has shown that smooth K-polystable Fano varieties of fixed dimension and volume can be parametrised by a quasi-projective moduli space. In this paper, we prove that all smooth Fano threefolds with Picard rank 2 and degree 28 are K-polystable, except for some explicit cases which we describe.
