Non-abelian Galois-cover generalization of the rational-cover rigidity theorem
Non-abelian Galois-cover generalization of the rational-cover rigidity theorem
Let be a divisorially canonical Fano variety satisfying the hypotheses of Theorem 1, and let be a rationally connected Galois rational cover. A Galois group here means the Galois group of the corresponding extension of function fields . Non-abelian Galois-cover conjecture. The conclusion of Theorem 1 should remain valid without assuming that the Galois group is abelian; equivalently, there are no nontrivial rationally connected Galois rational covers of with an arbitrary finite Galois group. The paper explains that the proposed extension is motivated by the invariance of the ramification divisor under the Galois-group action, but it is not proved there.
