Betti numbers and pseudoeffective cones in 2-Fano varieties

Giosuè Emanuele Muratore

Abstract

The 2-Fano varieties, defined by De Jong and Starr, satisfy some higher dimensional analogous properties of Fano varieties. We propose a definition of (weak) $k$-Fano variety and conjecture the polyhedrality of the cone of pseudoeffective $k$-cycles for those varieties in analogy with the case $k=1$. Then, we calculate some Betti numbers of a large class of $k$-Fano varieties to prove some special case of the conjecture. In particular, the conjecture is true for all 2-Fano varieties of index $\ge n-2$, and also we complete the classification of weak 2-Fano varieties of Araujo and Castravet.

Betti numbers and pseudoeffective cones in 2-Fano varieties

Abstract

The 2-Fano varieties, defined by De Jong and Starr, satisfy some higher dimensional analogous properties of Fano varieties. We propose a definition of (weak) -Fano variety and conjecture the polyhedrality of the cone of pseudoeffective -cycles for those varieties in analogy with the case . Then, we calculate some Betti numbers of a large class of -Fano varieties to prove some special case of the conjecture. In particular, the conjecture is true for all 2-Fano varieties of index , and also we complete the classification of weak 2-Fano varieties of Araujo and Castravet.

Key Result

Theorem 1.3

Let $X$ be a $n$-dimensional 2-Fano variety with $i_{X}\ge n-2$. Then $\overline{\mathrm{Eff}}_{2}(X)$ is polyhedral. Also, $\overline{\mathrm{Eff}}_{3}(X)$ is polyhedral with the possible exception of the complete intersection of type $(2,2)$ in $\mathbb{\mathbb{P}}^{8}$. In particular, Conjecture
