We classify products of symmetric powers of a Severi–Brauer variety, up to stable birational equivalence. The description also includes Grassmannians, flag varieties and moduli spaces of genus 0 stable maps.

Nous classons les produits de puissances symétriques d’une variété de Severi–Brauer, à équivalence birationnelle stable près. Notre classification concerne aussi les grassmanniennes, les variétés de drapeaux et les espaces de modules d’applications stables de genre 0.
