Abstract:
Let X be a smooth Fano variety. The index of X is the largest natural number iX such that the canonical class KX is divisible by iX in the Picard group of X. It is well known that iX<=n(X)+1 for n(X)=dim(X).
We are going to consider smooth Fano weighted complete intersections over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. It is known that
k(X)<=n(X)+1−iX for any such X, where k(X) is the codimension of X.
Let us introduce new invariant r(X)=n(X)−k(X)−iX+1.
In the talk I will outline what is known about smooth Fano weighted complete intersection of given r(X)=r0.
