Review text

This erratum is a supplement to the author's paper in Invent. Math. 107, No. 3, 561-584 (1992; Zbl 0766.14035). The results of this previous paper require slight modification in the light of some inaccuracies in section 2 concerning birational contractions of type III (that is, primitive contractions which contract a surface down to a curve). In summary, it is not only elliptic ruled surfaces on the Calabi-Yau threefold which cause the Kähler cone to jump under general deformations, but also conic bundles over an elliptic curve all of whose fibres are line pairs (i.e. when there is an unramified map of degree two from an elliptic ruled surface to the threefold). The main result of the paper is therefore restated as follows. Suppose that \(\pi:{\mathcal X} \to B\) is the Kuranishi family of a Calabi-Yau threefold \(X\) over a polydisc \(B\) in \(H^ 1 (X,T_ X)\). The Kähler cone is invariant in the family if and only if none of the threefolds \(X_ b\) contain either a smooth elliptic ruled surface or a conic bundle over an elliptic curve all of whose fibres are line pairs. More generally, the Kähler cone will be invariant over the dense subset of \(b \in B\) for which \(X_ b\) contains no such surfaces, this subset being the complement of at most countably many codimension one submanifolds of \(B\). The method of proof is essentially that of the earlier paper.
