Let $X$ be a smooth Fano threefold over $k$ of Picard number one or a smooth hypersurface over $k$ of dimension bigger than two that admits a non-invertible endomorphism. We assume that the degree of the endomorphism is coprime to $p$ when $p>0$. When $p=0$, it is known that $X$ is isomorphic to the projective space by the work of Amerik-Rovinsky-Van de Ven, Hwang-Mok, Paranjape-Srinivas, and Beauville. In this paper, we generalize this result to arbitrary characteristic. In the proof, we prove that $X$ satisfies the Bott vanishing theorem. This is a new approach even when $p=0$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-02-23T10:57:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14F17", "14J45", "14J70", "08A35" ], "keywords": [ "arbitrary characteristic", "smooth fano threefold", "picard number", "smooth hypersurface", "dimension bigger" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
