On the degree of irrationality of complete intersections (Japanese )
[ Abstract ]
The degree of irrationality of a variety X is the minimum degree of a dominant, generically finite rational map from X to a rational variety. This invariant gives a measure of how far X is from being rational. There were some varieties whose degree of irrationality was computed. For example, in 2017, Bastianelli, De Poi, Ein, Lazarsfeld, and Ullery computed the degree of irrationality of very general hypersurfaces of general type by using the positivity of the canonical line bundle. On the other hand, in 2020, Chen and Stapleton obtained the lower bound of the degree of irrationality of very general Fano hypersurfaces by using the reduction of modulo p.
In this talk, we will show that we can obtain the lower bound of the degree of irrationality of very general Fano complete intersections. For obtaining the bound, we make a minor adjustment to Chen--Stapleton's method using the trace map of differential modules.
This talk is based on joint work with Lucas Braune.
