Rational curves and bounds on the Picard number of Fano manifolds

Carla Novelli, Gianluca Occhetta

Published 2009-05-27, updated 2009-12-14Version 2

We prove that Generalized Mukai Conjecture holds for Fano manifolds $X$ of pseudoindex $i_X \ge (\dim X +3)/3$. We also give different proofs of the conjecture for Fano fourfolds and fivefolds.

Comments: Modified the proof of the main theorem and eliminated a statement about the cone of curves. To appear in Geometriae Dedicata
