Abstract

A wide and natural class of closed currents - which are differences of positive closed currents - can be constructed by pulling back smooth closed forms using rational maps. These currents are very singular in general, and hence defining intersections between them is challenging. In this paper, we use our previous results to investigate this question in the case where the rational maps in question are pseudo-isomorphisms (i.e. bimeromorphic maps which, along with their inverses, have no exceptional divisors) in dimension 33. Our main result, to be described in a more concrete form later in the paper, is as follows. {\bf Theorem.} Let X,YX,Y be compact K\"ahler manifolds of dimension 33, and f:XYf:X\dashrightarrow Y be a pseudo-isomorphism. Let α2,α3\alpha _2,\alpha _3 be smooth closed (1,1)(1,1) forms on YY, and T1T_1 a difference of two positive closed (1,1)(1,1) currents on XX. Then, whether the intersection of the currents T1T_1, f(α2)f^*(\alpha _2) and f(α3)f^*(\alpha _3) satisfies a Bedford-Taylor's type monotone convergence depends only on the cohomology classes of α2,α3\alpha _2,\alpha _3. Special attention is given to the case where T1=f(α1)T_1=f^*(\alpha _1) where α1\alpha _1 is a smooth closed (1,1)(1,1) form on YY. It is then shown that satisfying the above mentioned Bedford-Taylor's type monotone convergence is asymmetric in α1\alpha _1, α2\alpha _2 and α3\alpha _3, but in contrast the resulting signed measure is symmetric in α1\alpha _1, α2\alpha _2 and α3\alpha _3. We relate this Bedford-Taylor's type monotone convergence to the least-negative intersection we defined previously. These results can be extended to the case where α1\alpha _1, α2\alpha _2, α3\alpha _3 are more singular. Dynamics of pseudo-isomorphisms in dimension 33 are essential in proving these results.
