On plane Cremona transformations of fixed degree
Abstract
We study the quasi-projective variety Bird of plane Cremona transformations defined by three polynomials of fixed degree d and its subvariety Birdo where the three polynomials have no common factor. We compute their dimension and the decomposition in irreducible components. We prove that Bird is connected for each d and Birdo is connected when d < 7.
