Abstract: Unprojection is a theory in Commutative Algebra due to Miles Reid which constructs and analyses more complicated rings from simpler ones. The talk will be about two new formats of unprojection which we call Tom & Jerry triples and 4-intersection format respectively. The motivation is to construct codimension 6 Gorenstein rings starting from codimensions 3 and 2 respectively. As an application we will construct three families of codimension 6 Fano 3-folds in weighted projective space which appear in the Graded Ring Database.
