Birationally rigid Fano complete intersections. II

Abstract: We prove that a generic (in the sense of Zariski topology) Fano complete intersection

V

of the type

(d_{1}, ..., d_{k})

in

{m a t h b b P}^{M + k}

, where

d_{1} + ... + d_{k} = M + k

, is birationally superrigid if

M g e q 7

,

M g e q k + 3

and

m a t h o p m m a x d_{i} g e q 4

. In particular, on the variety

V

there is exactly one structure of a Mori fibre space (or a rationally connected fibre space), the groups of birational and biregular self-maps coincide,

m a t h o p m B i r V = m a t h o p m A u t V

, and the variety

V

is non-rational. This fact covers a considerably larger range of complete intersections than the result of [J. reine angew. Math. {�f 541} (2001), 55-79], which required the condition

M g e q 2 k + 1

. The paper is dedicated to the memory of Eckart Viehweg.
