Some properties of Fano manifolds that are zeros of sections in homogeneous vector bundles over Grassmannians

Oliver Küchle

Vol. 175 (1996), No. 1, 117–125
Abstract

Let X be a Fano manifold which is the zero scheme of a general global section s in an irreducible homogeneous vector bundle over a Grassmannian. We prove that the restriction of the Plücker embedding embeds X projectively normal, and that every small deformation of X comes from a deformation of the section s. These results are strengthened in the case of Fano 4-folds.
