Liftability and vanishing theorems for Fano threefolds in positive characteristic II

Abstract

In our series of papers, we prove that smooth Fano threefolds in positive characteristic lift to the ring of Witt vectors. Moreover, we show that they satisfy Akizuki-Nakano vanishing, $E_1$-degeneration of the Hodge to de Rham spectral sequence, and torsion-freeness of Crystalline cohomologies. In this paper, we establish these results except when $|-K_X|$ is very ample and the Picard group is generated by ${\omega }_X$. To this end, we show that an arbitrary smooth Fano threefold is quasi-$F$-split when the Picard number or the Fano index is larger than one.
