Fourier-Mukai functors and autoequivalence groups of $G$-equivariant derived categories

I have a few questions about $G$-equivariant derived categories. For my question, I'm assuming $G$ is cyclic. Also, in my case $G$ does not act on $X$, only on $D^b(X)$. Q1: Orlov's Representability ...

Fourier-Mukai kernels for Fano threefolds

Let $Y_1$ and $Y_1'$ be index two degree one Fano threefolds. Suppose we have a Fourier-Mukai equivalence $\Phi_P : \mathrm{D}^b(Y_1) \to \mathrm{D}^b(Y_1')$. Can anything be said about the kernel $P$,...

Do non-compact Fano manifolds exist?

Suppose $(M,g, \omega)$ is a Kähler manifold with $\text{Ric}(g) = g$, i.e., $M$ is a Fano manifold. Is $M$ necessarily compact? If not, perhaps complete and Fano implies compact? I'd like to build a ...

Negative Definite Fano Manifolds

A complex manifold $M$ is said to be Fano if the Chern curvature $2$-form is a positive definite $(1,1)$-form. What happens if the Chern curvature $2$-form is a negative definite $(1,1)$-form? What ...

Do all Fano threefolds have effective $c_2$?

Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective Fano threefold. Then the class $c_1(X)$ can be realised as an effective divisor in $X$. It is it true that the class $c_2(X)$ can be realised as an effective ...

Are varieties with negative Kodaira dimension covered by hyperkahlers

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety with negative Kodaira dimension over $\mathbb{C}$. Is there an integer $n\geq 1$, a smooth projective hyperkahler variety $H$, and a finite morphism $H\to X^n$? ...

Fano blow ups of $\mathbb CP^n$

Let $X$ be a smooth complex variety. Is it always possible to find an embedding $\varphi: X\to \mathbb CP^n$ for some $n$, such that the blow up of $\mathbb CP^n$ at $\varphi(X)$ is a Fano variety? ...

Analogy of a Fano manifold with anticanonical divisor

Some people say that a Fano manifold with anticanonical divisor is an analogue of a manifold with boundary. Where does this intuition come from?

Families of Fano varieties over non-hyperbolic curves

Let $C$ be a non-hyperbolic (smooth quasi-projective connected complex algebraic) curve. That is, $C$ is isomorphic to $\mathbb P^1, \mathbb A^1, \mathbb G_m$, or an elliptic curve. Let $f:X\to C$ be ...

Toric Fano Kahler manifolds and Delzant polytopes

Let $P$ be a Delzant polytope in $\mathbb R^n$, given by a set of inequalities $\ell_i(x) > 0$ where $\ell_i(x) = \sum_k \mu_k^i x_k - \lambda_i$. In his paper http://arxiv.org/abs/0803.0985 ...

Existence of constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics on projective manifolds

It is well known that the blow-up of $\mathbb P^2$ in one or two points does not accept a Kahler-Einstein metric. Kahler-Einstein metrics are particular cases of constant scalar curvature Kahler ...
