As a consequence, we show that some of these varieties admit unstable tangent bundles, which disproves a conjecture on stability of tangent bundles of Fano manifolds.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-12-29T09:27:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14J45", "14J40", "14J60" ], "keywords": [ "fano manifolds", "varieties admit unstable tangent bundles", "orbit varieties", "fano varieties", "stability/instability" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
