Double solid twistor spaces. II: General case

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this paper we investigate Moishezon twistor spaces which have a structure of double covering over a very simple rational threefold. These spaces can be regarded as a direct generalization of the twistor spaces studied by Poon and Kreussler-Kurke to the case of arbitrary signature. In particular, the branch divisor of the double covering is a cut of the rational threefold by a single quartic hypersurface. A defining equation of the hypersurface is determined in an explicit form. We also show that these twistor spaces interpolate LeBrun twistor spaces and the twistor spaces constructed in math.DG/0701278.


The author studies Moishezon twistor spaces which have the structure of a double covering over a very simple rational threefold. These spaces can be regarded as a direct generalization of the twistor spaces studied in [\textit{Y. S. Poon}, J. Differ. Geom. 36, No. 2, 451--491 (1992; Zbl 0742.53024)] and [\textit{B. Kreußler} et al., Compos. Math. 82, No. 1, 25--55 (1992; Zbl 0766.53049)] to the case of arbitrary signature. In particular, the branch divisor of the double covering is a cut of the rational threefold by a single quartic hypersurface. The author determines a defining equation of the hypersurface in an explicit form. He also shows that these twistor spaces interpolate the LeBrun twistor spaces and the twistor spaces constructed in [\textit{N. Honda}, J. Differ. Geom. 82, No. 2, 411--444 (2009; Zbl 1183.53043)].
