A computation of invariants of a rational self-map (Q2269761)

Let \(V\) be a smooth cubic in \({\mathbb P}^5\). The variety \(X\) of lines of \(V\) is a smooth algebraic variety of dimension \(4\). In [\textit{C. Voisin}, The Fano conference. Papers of the conference organized to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the death of Gino Fano (1871--1952), Torino, Italy, September 29--October 5, 2002. Torino: Università di Torino, Dipartimento di Matematica. 761-792 (2004; Zbl 1177.14040)], Voisin introduced a self-map of \(X\), defined as follows: for a general line \(l\) in \(V\), there is a unique plane \(P\subset {\mathbb P}^5\) which contains \(l\) and is tangent to \(V\) along \(l\). The plane \(P\) intersects \(V\) into \(l\) and another line \(l'\), which is the image of \(l\) by the map. In the article under review, the author shows that the rational map is algebraically stable and calculates its dynamical degrees.
