In particular, we provide an effective criterion for verifying whether all infinitesimal deformations preserve the equivariant structure. As an application, using rigidity of the Frobenius homomorphism of general linear groups, we prove that projectivizations of Frobenius pullbacks of tautological vector bundles on Grassmanians are arithmetically rigid, that is, do not lift over rings where $p \\neq 0$. This gives the same conclusion for Totaro's examples of Fano varieties violating Kodaira vanishing. We also provide an alternative purely geometric proof of non-liftability mod $p^2$ and to characteristic zero of the Frobenius homomorphism of a reductive group of non-exceptional type.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-10-25T14:17:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14D15", "14L30" ], "keywords": [ "equivariant vector bundles", "arithmetically rigid schemes", "deformation theory", "varieties violating kodaira vanishing", "frobenius homomorphism" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 20, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
