In particular, each structure of a rationally connected fiber space on $V$ is given by a projection onto a direct factor. The proof is based on the connectedness principle of Shokurov and Koll\\' ar and the technique of hypertangent divisors.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2004-08-26T18:09:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14E05", "14E07", "14E08" ], "keywords": [ "fano direct products", "birational geometry", "birational superrigidity", "hypertangent divisors", "connectedness principle" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 38, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
