Secant Varieties and Birational Geometry
We show how to use information about the equations defining secant varieties to smooth projective varieties in order to construct a natural collection of birational transformations. These were first constructed as flips in the case of curves by M. Thaddeus via Geometric Invariant Theory, and the first flip in the sequence was constructed by the author for varieties of arbitrary dimension in an ...

متن کاملBirational Geometry Old and New
A classical problem in algebraic geometry is to describe quantities that are invariants under birational equivalence as well as to determine some convenient birational model for each given variety, a minimal model. One such quantity is the ring of objects which transform like a tensor power of a differential of top degree, known as the canonical ring. The histories of the existence of minimal m...
متن کاملBirational geometry of quadrics
A central method in the theory of quadratic forms is the study of function fields of projective quadrics. In particular, it is important to ask when there is a rational map from one quadric over a field to another. This suggests the problem of determining when two quadrics are birational, which turns out to be much harder. The answer is known for quadratic forms of dimension at most 7 (thus for...
متن کاملBirational geometry of defective varieties
Here we investigate the birational geometry of projective varieties of arbitrary dimension having defective higher secant varieties. We apply the classical tool of tangential projections and we determine natural conditions for uniruledness, rational connectivity, and rationality. AMS Subject Classification: 14N05.
