Abstract

In our previous research, we constructed the affine varieties $\Sigma _{\mathbb {A}}^{13}$ and $\Pi _{\mathbb {A}}^{14}$ whose partial projectivizations admit $\mathbb {P}^{2}\times \mathbb {P}^{2}$-fibrations with relative Picard number one. In this paper, we produce prime quasi-smooth ℚ-Fano 3-folds which are anticanonically embedded of codimension four and belong to 23 (resp. 8) classes in the Graded Ring Database, as weighted complete intersections in weighted projectivizations of $\Sigma _{\mathbb {A}}^{13}$ (resp. $\Pi _{\mathbb {A}}^{14}$ or its cone). We also show that a general member of the anticanonical linear system of a general prime ℚ-Fano $3$-fold constructed in this way is a quasi-smooth $K3$ surface with at worst Du Val singularities.
