The Higher Connectivity of Intersections of Real Quadrics

Michael Larsen, Ayelet Lindenstrauss

Published 2005-08-21Version 1

A linear system of real quadratic forms defines a real projective variety. The real non-singular locus of this variety (more precisely of the underlying scheme) has a highly connected double cover as long as each non-zero form in the system has sufficiently high Witt index.
