This variety is the blowup of

  • 1-17, in a curve of genus 3

This variety is fibre-like, i.e. it can appear as the fibre of a Mori fibre space.

Period sequence

The following period sequences are associated to this Fano 3-fold:

GRDB
#118
Fanosearch
#13
Extremal contractions
Semiorthogonal decompositions

There exist interesting semiorthogonal decompositions, but this data is not yet added.

Structure of quantum cohomology

By Hertling–Manin–Teleman we have that quantum cohomology cannot be generically semisimple, as $\mathrm{h}^{1,2}\neq 0$.

Zero section description

Fano 3-folds from homogeneous vector bundles over Grassmannians gives the following description(s):

variety
$\mathbb{P}^3 \times \mathbb{P}^3$
bundle
$\mathcal{O}(1,1)^{\oplus 3}$

See the big table for more information.
