Abstract

This is a continuation of &#34;Rational curves on hypersurfaces of low degree&#34;, math.AG/0203088. We prove that if d2+d+1 < n and d > 2, then for a general hypersurface Xd in Pn of degree d, for each degree e the space of rational curves of degree e on X is itself a rationally connected variety.
