Spaces of rational curves on complete intersections

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We prove that the space of smooth rational curves of degree e in a general complete intersection of multidegree (d1,...,dm) in PPn is irreducible of the expected dimension if sumi=1mdi<frac2n3 and n is large enough. This generalizes the results of Harris, Roth and Starr cite{hrs}, and is achieved by proving that the space of conics passing through any point of a general complete intersection has constant dimension if sumi=1mdi is small compared to n.
