RATIONAL CURVES ON CUBIC HYPERSURFACES OVER FINITE FIELDS

From MaRDI portal
Publication:6072650



Abstract: Given a smooth cubic hypersurface X over a finite field of characteristic greater than 3 and two generic points on X, we use a function field analogue of the Hardy-Littlewood circle method to obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of degree d rational curves on X passing through those two points. We use this to deduce the dimension and irreducibility of the moduli space parametrising such curves, for large enough d.
