Analytic and Algebraic Oka-1 Approximation for Smooth Projective Morphisms with Rationally Connected Fibers

RESUMO

Let $\pi:Z\rightarrow Y$ be a smooth projective morphism of complex manifolds with connected rationally connected fibers. We prove holomorphic approximation on arbitrary compact sets and finite-jet interpolation on arbitrary closed discrete sets for continuous liftings defined on open Riemann surfaces and holomorphic near those sets. For smooth projective morphisms of smooth complex algebraic varieties and algebraic base maps from smooth affine curves, the approximating liftings can be chosen algebraic, with interpolation on any finite set. In both cases the resulting lifting is homotopic to the initial one through continuous liftings of the fixed base map. For connected smooth projective complex manifolds, this gives the equivalence between the algebraic Oka-1 property and rational connectedness. Every rationally connected smooth projective complex manifold is also Oka-1.
