Bounds for smooth Fano weighted complete intersections

Abstract

We prove that if a smooth variety with non-positive canonical class can be embedded into a weighted projective space of dimension $n$ as a well formed complete intersection and it is not an intersection with a linear cone therein, then the weights of the weighted projective space do not exceed $n+1$. Based on this bound we classify all smooth Fano complete intersections of dimensions $4$ and $5$, and compute their invariants.
