Period sequence

There is no period sequence associated to this Fano 3-fold.

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
$\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^2 \times \mathbb{P}^{12}$
bundle
$\mathcal{O}(0,0,2) \oplus K(0,0,1)$
