How does one prove that the complete intersection of a quadric and a cubic of $\mathbb P^5$ is unirational?
The question is stated in the title, but I would like to add some motivation.
I've been teaching a course on complex tori and abelian varieties this semester and I would like to end it by showing ...

Derived category of varieties and derived category of quiver algebras
I have heard that derived category of coherent sheaves $\mathrm{Coh}(X)$ on any Fano varieties $X$ may be realized as derived category $\mathrm{Coh}(\mathrm{Rep}(Q,W))$ of representation of quiver $Q$ ...

Frobenius splitting of Fano varieties
Dear MO,
Question 1. Do you know of an example of a Fano variety which is not Frobenius split?
Background
(1) A variety $X$ in characteristic $p$ is called Frobenius split if there is a "$p$-th ...

Semiorthogonal decompositions for Fano 3-folds and 4folds
Let $X$ be a projective Fano 3-fold or 4-fold and let $D^b(X)$ be the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $X$. For what $X$ is it known a semi orthogonal decomposition into indecomposable ...

Bound for the Picard number of a Fano 3-fold
Let $X$ be a Fano 3-fold with terminal singularities. Is there some bound (possibly explicit) for the Picard rank of $X$ ?
If $X$ is smooth, it is well-known that the bound is $10$, obtained by del ...

Controlling singularities on log mmp
Suppose all my varieties are complex threefolds $X\rightarrow Y$ over some smooth base curve germ $Y$. We can assume the fibres are Del Pezzo surfaces with generic smooth fibre.
If I do (relative) ...
