If $X$ is unirational, then $K_X$ cannot be trivial or even torsion. If the Picard number is one, then any such divisor is either ample or negative ample. Again if $X$ is unirational, then $K_X$ cannot be ample. So $-K_X$ is ample, and hence $X$ is Fano. (If the Picard group is $\mathbb Z$, then you don't even need to worry about torsion.) | |

Sep 21, 2013 at 9:15 | comment | added | Chen | @ulrich: Does unirational imply Fano? | |
Sep 21, 2013 at 7:12 | comment | added | naf | @Jim Bryan: It is easy to see that the moduli space (with fixed determinant bundle) is unirational. | |
Sep 21, 2013 at 3:53 | comment | added | Jim Bryan | I'm confused. Why do you say that Picard number 1 implies it is Fano? A K3 surface can have $\mathbb{Z}$ for a Picard group. | |
