AbstractWe continue the study, begun in [F. Russo, Varieties with quadratic entry locus. I, Preprint (2006), math. AG/0701889] , of secant defective manifolds having ‘simple entry loci’. We prove that such manifolds are rational and describe them in terms of tangential projections. Using also the work of [P. Ionescu and F. Russo, Conic-connected manifolds, Preprint (2006), math. AG/0701885], their classification is reduced to the case of Fano manifolds of high index, whose Picard group is generated by the hyperplane section class. Conjecturally, the former should be linear sections of rational homogeneous manifolds. We also provide evidence that the classification of linearly normal dual defective manifolds with Picard group generated by the hyperplane section should follow along the same lines.

AbstractThis paper is one in a series generalizing our results in [12, 14, 15, 20] on the existence of extremal metrics to the general almost-homogeneous manifolds of cohomogeneity one. In this paper, we consider the affine cases with hypersurface ends. In particular, we study the existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics on these manifolds and obtain new Kähler-Einstein manifolds as well as Fano manifolds without Kähler-Einstein metrics. As a consequence of our study, we also give a solution to the problem posted by Ahiezer on the nonhomogeneity of compact almost-homogeneous manifolds of cohomogeneity one; this clarifies the classification of these manifolds as complex manifolds. We also consider Fano properties of the affine compact manifolds.

In this paper, we investigate codimension one Fano distributions on Fano manifolds with Picard number one. We classify Fano distributions of maximal index on complete intersections in weighted projective spaces, Fano contact manifolds, Grassmannians of lines and their linear sections, and describe their moduli spaces. As a consequence, we obtain a classification of codimension one del Pezzo distributions on Fano manifolds with Picard number one.

Abstract We prove that two spheres of the same constant mean curvature in an arbitrary homogeneous three-manifold only differ by an ambient isometry, and we determine the values of the mean curvature for which such spheres exist. This gives a complete classification of immersed constant mean curvature spheres in three-dimensional homogeneous manifolds.

Let L be a very ample line bundle on a smooth, connected, projective, ruled not rational surface X. We have considered the problem of classifying biholomorphically smooth, connected, projected, ruled, non rational surfaces X with smooth hyperplane section C such that the genus g = g(C) is less than or equal to six and dim where is the map associated to . L. Roth in [10] had given a birational classification of such surfaces. If g = 0 or 1 then X has been classified, see [8].If g = 2 ≠ hl,0(X) by [12, Lemma (2.2.2) ] it follows that X is a rational surface. Thus we can assume g ≦ 3.Since X is ruled, h2,0(X) = 0 andsee [4] and [12, p. 390].

AbstractA projective log variety (X, D) is called a log Fano manifold if X is smooth and if D is a reduced simple normal crossing divisor on Χ with − (KΧ + D) ample. The n-dimensional log Fano manifolds (X, D) with nonzero D are classified in this article when the log Fano index r of (X, D) satisfies either r ≥ n/2 with ρ(X) ≥ 2 or r ≥ n − 2. This result is a partial generalization of the classification of logarithmic Fano 3-folds by Maeda.

This is the fourth part of [6] on the existence of K¨ahler Einstein metrics of the general type I almost homogeneous manifolds of cohomogeneity one. We actually carry out all the results in [8] to the type I cases. In part II [14], we obtained a lot of new K¨ahler-Einstein manifolds as well as Fano manifolds without K¨ahler-Einstein metrics. In particular, by applying Theorem 15 therein, we have complete results in the Theorems 3 and 4 in that paper. However, we only have some partial results in Theorem 5 there. In this note, we shall give a report of recent progress on the Fano manifolds Nn,m when n > 15 and N′n,m when n > 4. We actually give two nice pictures for these two classes of manifolds. See our Theorems 1 and 2 in the last section. Moreover, we post two conjectures. Once we could solve these two conjectures, the question for these two classes of manifolds would be completely solved. With applying our results to the canonical circle bundles we also obtain Sasakian manifolds with or without Sasakian-Einstein metrics. That also give some open Calabi-Yau manifolds.
