Abstract: We classify all pencils on a general weighted hypersurface in $mathbbP(1,a_1,a_2,a_3,a_4)$ of degree $su{m}_{i=1}^4{a}_i$ whose general members are surfaces of Kodaira dimension zero.

Review text

An Halphen pencil is a one dimensional linear system whose general element is birational to a smooth variety of vanishing Kodaira dimension. The name is motivated by a classical construction, due to Halphen, of pencils of cubic curves in the projective plane. These objects are specially meaningful for Fano varieties. For those natural candidates are sublinear systems of the canonical class, and a deep understanding of Halphen pencils gives interesting geometric consequences. The paper under review studies and classifies Alphen pencils on the general member of the famous list of 95 Fanos in codimension 1 [see \textit{A. Corti, A. Pukhlikov} and \textit{M. Reid}, Lond. Math. Soc. Lect. Note Ser. 281, 175--258 (2000; Zbl 0960.14020)]. The output is very nice. Only five cases are actually possible. The proof is a long case by case analysis based on maximal singularities method adapted to this borderline situation.
