Pukhlikov's birational rigidity conjecture for Fano varieties of index one

Let VV be a smooth Fano variety of dimension dimV4\dim V\geq4 whose Picard group is generated by the canonical class KVK_V. Pukhlikov's conjecture. If dimV4\dim V\geq4, then VV is birationally rigid; if dimV5\dim V\geq5, then VV is superrigid. The conjecture predicts birational rigidity, and in dimensions at least five birational superrigidity, under the stated Picard-group hypothesis. The paper's title indicates that it studies counterexamples to this prediction, so its status should be checked against the results of the paper and subsequent literature.
