Finite $p$-groups of birational automorphisms and characterizations of rational varieties

Abstract: We study finite p-subgroups of birational automorphism groups. By virtue of boundedness theorem of Fano varieties, we prove that there exists a constant R(n) such that a rationally connected variety of dimension n over an algebraically closed field is rational if its birational automorphism group contains a p-subgroups of maximal rank for p > R(n). Some related applications on Jordan property are discussed.

“…That is, Aut 1 (X) is the group of birational self-maps X X which are an automorphism outside a subset of codimension at least two. We refer the reader to [45], [62, §4] and [77] for a discussion of such birational self-maps.…”
