Smoothing of rational m-ropes

Edoardo Ballico, Elizabeth Gasparim, Thomas Köppe (2009)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

In a recent paper, Gallego, González and Purnaprajna showed that rational 3-ropes can be smoothed. We generalise their proof, and obtain smoothability of rational m-ropes for m ≥ 3.

Are rational curves determined by tangent vectors?

Stefan Kebekus, Sándor J. Kovács (2004)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let X be a projective variety which is covered by rational curves, for instance a Fano manifold over the complex numbers. In this paper, we give sufficient conditions which guarantee that every tangent vector at a general point of X is contained in at most one rational curve of minimal degree. As an immediate application, we obtain irreducibility criteria for the space of minimal rational curves.

A computation of invariants of a rational self-map

Ekaterina Amerik (2009)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

I prove the algebraic stability and compute the dynamical degrees of C. Voisin’s rational self-map of the variety of lines on a cubic fourfold.
