Algebraic non-hyperbolicity of hyperkahler manifolds

Abstract:

A projective manifold is algebraically hyperbolic if the degree of any curve is bounded from above by its genus times a constant, which is independent from the curve. This is a property which follows from Kobayashi hyperbolicity. We prove that hyperkahler manifolds are not algebraically hyperbolic when the Picard rank is at least 3, or if the Picard rank is 2 and the SYZ conjecture on existence of Lagrangian fibrations is true. We also prove that if the automorphism group of a hyperkahler manifold is infinite, then it is algebraically non-hyperbolic. \\ \\ These results are a joint work with Misha Verbitsky.
