We compute their dimension and the decomposition in irreducible components. We prove that Bir_d is connected for each d and Bir_d^o is connected when d < 7.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-08-19T17:54:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14E07" ], "keywords": [ "fixed degree", "plane cremona transformations", "polynomials", "common factor", "quasi-projective variety" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1212.0996B" } } }
