Birational factorization conjecture for elliptic fibrations on weighted Fano threefold hypersurfaces

Let XX be the weighted Fano threefold hypersurface considered in the paper, with numerical parameter NN, and let a2a_{2} and a3a_{3} be the weights defining the weighted projective plane f4a0(1,a2,a3)f4a0(1,a_{2},a_{3}). Let

ρ:XP2\rho:X\dashrightarrow\mathbb{P}^{2}

be a rational map such that the normalization of a general fiber of ρ\rho is an elliptic curve. Birational factorization conjecture. If N{3,60,75,84,87,93}ΩN\notin\{3,60,75,84,87,93\}\cup\Omega, where Ω={1,2,7,9,11,17,19,20,26,30,36,44,49,51,64}\Omega=\{1,2,7,9,11,17,19,20,26,30,36,44,49,51,64\}, then there is a commutative diagram

\xymatrix{ &&&&X\ar@{-->}[dll]_{\psi}\ar@{-->}[dr]^{\rho}&&&\\ &&\mathbb{P}(1,a_{2},a_{3})\ar@{-->}[rrr]_{\phi}&&&\mathbb{P}^{2},&&}

where ψ\psi is the natural projection and ϕ\phi is a birational map. This asserts that the elliptic fibration factors birationally through the natural projection to P(1,a2,a3)\mathbb{P}(1,a_{2},a_{3}).
