Hypersurfaces of Low Degree Are Rationally Simply-connected
نویسنده
چکیده
For a general hypersurface of degree d in projective n-space, if n ≥ d the spaces of 2-pointed rational curves on the hypersurface are rationally connected; thus the hypersurfaces are rationally simply connected. This paper proves stronger versions of theorems in [HS05].

Low Degree Complete Intersections Are Rationally Simply Connected
We prove smooth, low degree complete intersections in projective space are rationally simply connected in a strong sense. Using a result of Hassett, we deduce weak approximation for smooth, low degree complete intersections defined over the function field of a curve.

This is a continuation of [7] in which we proved irreducibility of spaces of rational curves on a general hypersurface X d ⊂ P n of degree d < n+1 2. In this paper, we prove that if d 2 + d + 2 ≤ n and if d ≥ 3, then the spaces of rational curves are themselves rationally connected.

This is the second in a sequence of papers on the geometry of spaces of rational curves of degree e on a general hypersurface X ⊂ Pn of degree d. In [11] it is proved that if d < n+1 2 then for each e the space of rational curves is irreducible, reduced and has the expected dimension. In this paper it is proved that if d2 + d + 1 ≤ n, then for each e the space of rational curves is a rationally...
متن کاملFree and Very Free Morphisms into a Fermat Hypersurface
Any smooth projective Fano variety in characteristic zero is rationally connected and hence contains a very free rational curve. In positive characteristic a smooth projective Fano variety is rationally chain connected. However, it is not known whether such varieties are separably rationally connected, or equivalently, whether they have a very free rational curve. This is an open question even ...
متن کاملFano double spaces of index two
We study birational geometry of Fano varieties, realized as double covers σ: V → P M , M ≥ 5, branched over generic hypersurfaces W = W 2(M −1) of degree 2(M − 1). We prove that the only structures of a rationally connected fiber space on V are the pencils-subsystems of the free linear system | − 1 2 K V |. The groups of birational and biregular self-maps of the variety V coincide: Bir V = Aut V .
