Relative Clemens conjecture for rational curves on cubic threefolds
Let be a cubic threefold, let be a hyperplane, and let be a smooth rational curve of degree , with , , and all general. Let and let denote the normal bundle of in . Relative Clemens conjecture. The threefold admits only a finite number of general rational curves whose intersection with is . Moreover, every such curve has normal bundle
This is the relative analogue of the Clemens conjecture, prescribing finiteness while fixing the intersection with the hyperplane. The supplied passage gives no resolution status for the assertion.
