On the existence of curves in K-trivial threefolds

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We give a criterion for a continuous family of curves on a nodal KK-trivial threefold X0X_0 to contribute geometrically rigid curves to a general smoothing of X0X_0. As an application, we prove the existence of geometrically rigid curves of arbitrary degree and explicitly bounded genus on general complete intersection Calabi-Yau threefolds.
