Abstract

This article treats smooth weak Fano threefolds V having an extremal ray of type D. We further assume that the pluri-anti-canonical morphism of V contracts only a finite number of curves, i.e., the anti-canonical model of V is terminal. The contraction morphism corresponding to the extremal ray of type D is a del Pezzo fibration of degree d for \(1\leqslant d\leqslant 6\) or \(d=8,9\). Smooth weak Fano threefolds with an extremal ray of type D of degree \(\ne 6\) are classified into 47 deformation types.
