Apr 19 at 17:00 comment added Sasha It is easy to see that the Picard group of $Y_i$ has rank 1; therefore the morphism $Y_i \to X$ has no factorizations into a composition of two nontrivial projective morphisms.
Apr 18 at 15:35 comment added George Is it obvious that $Y_i\rightarrow Z$ must be isomorphism? Could you tell me why?
Apr 18 at 15:13 comment added Lazzaro Campeotti @George: for $i=0,1$, if $Y_i \rightarrow Z \rightarrow X$ is a factorisation with $Z$ smooth then $Y_i \rightarrow Z$ must be an isomorphism over $X$. Since $Y_0$ and $Y_1$ are not isomorphic over $X$, this means that the two morphisms $Y_i \rightarrow X$ cannot both factor through a morphism $Z \rightarrow X$ for some smooth $Z$.
Apr 17 at 11:24 comment added George Thanks. I understand why these blowup are resolutions. How to show this three fold has no minimal resolution by using these fact.
Apr 17 at 4:43 comment added Sasha This is a computation. Over the complement of the singularity, the blowup center is a Cartier divisor, so the blowup is the identity.
Apr 17 at 0:26 comment added George Why are these blow up resolutions? Even if we restrict these maps to the complement of the fiber of singular locus , we cannot get bijection on to it's image
