The birational parametrization conjecture for highly movable rational curves

From papers

Let WW be an arbitrary projective variety of dimension nn. Assume that WW contains a rational curve and that every rational curve of WW moves in a family of dimension at least 2n22n-2. Birational parametrization conjecture. There is a birational dominating morphism

PnW{\Bbb P}^n \longrightarrow W

that is either an isomorphism or a normalization. The smooth case is supplied by Miyaoka's theorem, while the extension to arbitrary projective varieties is stated as an expectation and remains open.
