Projective 3-folds of general type with X=1

Publication date: 29 November 2006

Abstract: There are many examples of 3-folds of general type with

c h i (m a t h c a l O) = 1

found by Iano-Fletcher and Reid about twenty years ago. Iano-Fletcher has ever proved

P_{12} (X) g e 1

and

P_{24} (X) g e 2

for all minimal 3-folds

X

of general type with

c h i (m a t h c a l O_{X}) = 1

. In this paper, we improve on Fletcher's method. Our main result is that

p h i_{m}

is birational onto its image for all

m g e 54

. To prove this we establish a general theory on birationality for general 3-folds which improve known results. Also we will show

P_{m} g e q 1

for all

m g e q 14

and

P_{18} g e q 3

.
