Abstract
- For a complex connected semisimple linear algebraic group $G$ of adjoint type and of rank $n$, De Concini and Procesi constructed its wonderful compactification $\bar{G}$, which is a smooth Fano $G \times G$-variety of Picard number $n$ enjoying many interesting properties. In this paper, it is shown that the wonderful compactification $\bar{G}$ is rigid under Fano deformation. Namely, for any regular family of Fano manifolds over a connected base, if one fiber is isomorphic to $\bar{G}$, then so are all other fibers. This answers a question raised by Bien and Brion in their work on the local rigidity of wonderful varieties.<br />Comment: 42 pages, to appear in Journal of Differential Geometry
