Birational geometry of blow-ups of projective spaces along points and lines

Published 25 Oct 2019 in math.AG | (1910.11854v3)

Abstract: Consider the blow-up $X$ of $\mathbb{P}3$ at 6 points in very general position and the 15 lines through the 6 points. We construct an infinite-order pseudo-automorphism $\phi_X$ on $X$, induced by the complete linear system of a divisor of degree 13. The effective cone of $X$ has infinitely many extremal rays and hence, $X$ is not a Mori Dream Space. The threefold $X$ has a unique anticanonical section which is a Jacobian K3 Kummer surface $S$ of Picard number 17. The restriction of $\phi_X$ on $S$ realizes one of Keum's 192 infinite-order automorphisms of Jacobian K3 Kummer surfaces. In general, we show the blow-up of $\mathbb{P}n$ ($n\geq 3$) at $(n+3)$ very general points and certain 9 lines through them is not Mori Dream, with infinitely many extremal effective divisors. As an application, for $n\geq 7$, the blow-up of $\overline{M}_{0,n}$ at a very general point has infinitely many extremal effective divisors.
