Mar 6, 2019 at 18:30 comment added Takumi Murayama You may already be aware of this, but I believe that Shepherd-Barron in the proof of Theorem 7 in "Unstable vector bundles and linear systems on surfaces in characteristic $p$" shows that on surfaces, the vanishing $(\ast)$ holds for $p = 1$ (with the weaker assumption that the divisor class $L$ of $\mathscr{L}$ is in "positive cone" $C_{++}(X)$) as long as the surface is neither quasi-elliptic nor of general type. In the general type case, if $(\ast)$ does not hold, the proof seems to say that the surface is purely inseparably uniruled.
Mar 6, 2019 at 13:00 comment added Frank Probably the best place to look for a counterexample is in the Lauritzen-Rao example (as appearing for example in Sandor's paper arxiv.org/abs/1703.02080) - it's a 6fold Fano in characteristic 2 whose construction is rather explicit, so it should be possible to check if the above vanishing holds. There's also the Totaro examples arxiv.org/abs/1710.04364 but checking here might involve more work
Mar 6, 2019 at 11:40 comment added Jason Starr By Koll\'ar - Miyaoka - Mori, every Fano manifold is rationally chain connected. By the Bloch - Srinivas argument, there exists a "decomposition of the diagonal" after inverting an integer $N$ that Chatzistamatiou and Levine call the "torsion order". If $N$ is prime to $\text{char}(k)$, then regardless of liftings mod $p^2$, the cohomology groups above vanish. This is proved by Totaro in his article about stable irrationality of hypersurfaces. The torsion order divides all "enumerative 2-point, genus-0 Gromov-Witten invariants" and so can be bounded, cf. my work with Z. Tian and R. Zong.
