Title

Restrictions on rational surfaces contained in general hypersurfaces

Abstract

I will talk about moduli spaces of rational curves on Fano hypersurfaces and discuss questions regarding when these moduli spaces are uniruled or do not contain many rational curves. One motivation for the study of these types of questions comes from the question of when Fano hypersurfaces are swept out by certain families of rational surfaces. This is based on joint work with Eric Riedl.
