Mustapha Lahyane, Israel Moreno-Mejía, Dan Silva-López

Abstract


We use Bott's residue formula to infer that a general cubic surface in the projective space ℙ3 contains exactly twenty seven lines and that a general complete intersection of two quadrics in ℙ4 contains exactly sixteen lines.

Keywords


Bott’s residue formula, complete intersection, torus action, rational surfaces.
