Dimension conjecture for Kontsevich spaces on general Fano hypersurfaces

At least 11 years old · documented by

Let XX be a general hypersurface of degree dd in Pn\mathbb{P}^n. Let M‾0,0(X,e)\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,0}(X,e) denote the Kontsevich space of degree ee stable rational maps to XX. Dimension conjecture. The dimension of M‾0,0(X,e)\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,0}(X,e) is

max⁡{0,e(n−d+1)+n−4},\max\{0,e(n-d+1)+n-4\},

the minimum possible. This is an open question, conjectured by Coskun, Harris and Starr in the special case n≥d+1n\geq d+1, and remains open for large ranges of dd, nn and ee.
