Abstract: This is a continuation of a series of papers studying the birational Mori fiber structures of anticanonically embedded mathbbQ-Fano 3-fold weighted complete intersections of codimension 2. We have proved that 19 families consists of birationally rigid varieties and 14 families consists of birationally birigid varieties. The aim of this paper is to continue the work systematically and prove that, among the remaining 52 families, 21 families consist of birationally birigid varieties.


This paper fits into a series of articles dedicated to studying the Mori fibre structures of \(\mathbb{Q}\)-factorial terminal Fano 3-folds with Picard number 1 that are anticanonically embedded into weighted projective spaces as complete intersections of codimension 2. There are 85 families of such \(\mathbb{Q}\)-Fano 3-folds: the author proves the birational birigidity of 21 of them. As a corollary, these families are not rational. The general member \(X\) of a family of \(\mathbb{Q}\)-Fano 3-folds is said to be \textit{birationally birigid} if there exist exactly two Mori fibre spaces in the birational equivalence class of \(X\). In the context examined in this paper, the author proves that the so-called \textit{birational counterpart} of \(X\) is a weighted Fano hypersurface \(X'\) with a unique singularity point of type either \(cA\!/\!n\) or \(cD\!/\!3\). The proof is achieved constructing a Sarkisov link between \(X\) and \(X'\). To prove the birational birigidity, a detailed study of divisorial extractions from each centre is carried out: this includes birational involutions and exclusion of centres (smooth, \(cA\!/\!n\), and quotient singular points, and curves). The full extent of the result is summarised in the final big table table in Section 11, which contains the 21 weighted complete intersection families \(X\) and their birational counterpart \(X'\), together with the equations of \(X'\), the analysis of its centres (exclusion method, or existence of birational involution), and the centre that gives rise to the link to \(X\).
