Kuznetsov's rationality conjecture for cubic fourfolds
Kuznetsov's rationality conjecture for cubic fourfolds
Let be the moduli space of cubic fourfolds, and let denote a special divisor, consisting of cubic fourfolds with discriminant . A discriminant is admissible when it satisfies the numerical conditions appearing in the classification of special cubic fourfolds associated with rationality. Kuznetsov's conjecture. A cubic fourfold is rational if and only if , with admissible. This conjecture seeks to characterize rational cubic fourfolds through their membership in admissible special divisors; while many rational examples lie in such divisors, the asserted equivalence remains open in general.
