Harbourne–Janssen–Nagel–Schenck conjecture on negative curves on blowups of Hirzebruch surfaces
Harbourne–Janssen–Nagel–Schenck conjecture on negative curves on blowups of Hirzebruch surfaces
Let be the -th Hirzebruch surface, with denoting its negative section. Let be points in very general position, and let
be the blowup at the points in . Harbourne–Janssen–Nagel–Schenck conjecture. If is an integral curve on such that , then is either the strict transform of or a -curve. This predicts that the negative curves on these blowups are exhausted by the distinguished negative section and exceptional-type curves; the supplied text gives no resolution status, so the conjecture is treated as open.
