Abstract: In this paper we show that a uniruled manifold with a split tangent bundle admits almost holomorphic fibrations that are related to the splitting. We analyse these fibrations in detail in several special cases, this yields new results about the integrability of the direct factors and the universal covering of the manifold.

Review text

The article under review is a contribution to the classification theory of compact Kähler manifolds \(X\) and focuses on the case where \(X\) is uniruled and its holomorphic tangent bundle \(T_X\) splits into a direct sum \(T_X\simeq V_1\oplus V_2\) of proper subbundles. The author studies the structure of the almost holomorphic MRC-fibration \(\phi: X\dashrightarrow Y\) of \(X\) onto a normal Kähler variety \(Y\) with the universal property that its general fiber \(Z\) is rationally connected and \(Y\) is not uniruled [cf. \textit{J. Kollár, Y. Miyaoka} and \textit{S. Mori}, J. Differ. Geom. 36, No. 3, 765--779 (1992; Zbl 0759.14032)]. The splitting of \(T_X\) induces a splitting of \(T_Z\simeq (T_Z\cap V_{1|Z})\oplus(T_Z\cap V_{2|Z})\). This observation leads to the following structure theorem: If \(1\leq\) rank \(( T_Z\cap V_{1|Z})\leq\) rank \(V_1=2\), and \(T_Z\cap V_{1|Z}\) or \(T_Z\cap V_{2_|Z}\) is integrable, then either rank \(( T_Z\cap V_{1|Z})=2\) and \(X\) admits the structure of an analytic fibre bundle with rationally connected general fiber and \(T_{X/Y}=V_1\), or \(X\) admits an equidimensional holomorphic map onto a Kähler variety with general fiber \(F\) a rational curve and \(T_F\subset V_{1|F}\). For the case rank \(V_1=1\) see \textit{M. Brunella, J. V. Pereira} and \textit{F. Touzet} [Bull. Soc. Math. Fr. 134, No. 2, 241--252 (2006; Zbl 1187.32018)]. If \(X\) is in addition projective, \(V_1\) and \(V_2\) integrable and \(T_Z\cap V_{1|Z}\not=\{0\}\), then the splitting of \(T_X\) induces a splitting \(\tilde{X}\simeq X_1\times X_2\) of the universal covering manifold \(\tilde{X}\) of \(X\). The proof of this fact uses foliation theory, the Ehresmann fibration theorem, and is based on former results of the author [Math. Z. 256, No. 3, 465-479 (2007; Zbl 1137.14030)], where he proved the splitting of \(X\) when it is rationally connected and \(V_1\) or \(V_2\) is integrable. Finally the author applies the theory of Mori contractions to study for projective \(X\) the situation where \(T_X=\bigoplus\limits_{j=1}^k V_j\) with rank \(V_j\leq 2\), \(1\leq j\leq k\). He proves that \(V_j\) is integrable if \(T_Z\cap V_{j_|Z}\not=\{0\}\) and that the MRC-fibration of \(X\) can be realized as a flat fibration onto a projective manifold \(Y\) with \(T_Y=\bigoplus\limits_{j=1}^k T\phi(V_j)\) where the \(T\phi(V_j)\) are specific reflexive subsheaves of \(T_Y\).
