Smooth rationally connected threefolds contain all smooth curves

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show that if X is a smooth rationally connected threefold and C is a smooth projective curve then C can be embedded in X. Furthermore, a version of this property characterises rationally connected varieties of dimension at least 3. We give some details about the toric case.
