Rationally connected varieties on an algebraically closed field (Q2906473)

These are lecture notes on geometric aspects of rationally connected varieties. Rationally connected varieties are higher dimensional analogs of rational surfaces. Previous introductions to this subject include [Rational curves on algebraic varieties. Berlin: Springer (1995; Zbl 0877.14012)] by \textit{J. Kollár} and [Bolyai Soc. Math. Stud. 12, 13--68 (2003; Zbl 1080.14521)] by \textit{C. Araujo} and \textit{J. Kollár}.NEWLINENEWLINEThis notes could be viewed as an excellent invitation to [\textit{T. Graber, J. Harris} and \textit{J. Starr}, J. Am. Math. Soc. 16, No. 1, 57--67 (2003; Zbl 1092.14063); \textit{C. D. Hacon} and \textit{J. McKernan}, Duke Math. J. 138, No. 1, 119--136 (2007; Zbl 1128.14028)].NEWLINENEWLINEIt is extremely well written. Examples, proofs and remarks are well balanced. This survey is strongly recommended for readers who are interested in learning this subject.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 1237.14006].
