Ordinary holomorphic webs of codimension one

To any d-web of codimension one on a holomorphic n-dimensional manifold M (d>n), we associate an analytic subset S of M. We call ordinary the webs for which S has a dimension at most n-1 or is empty. This condition is generically satisfied, at least at the level of germs.

We prove that the rank of an ordinary d-web has an upper-bound π ' (n,d) which, for n3, is strictly smaller than the bound π(n,d) proved by Chern, π(n,d) denoting the Castelnuovo’s number. This bound is optimal. Setting c(n,h)=n-1+hh, let k 0 be the integer such that c(n,k 0 )d<c(n,k 0 +1). The number π ' (n,d) is then equal

  • to 0 for d<c(n,2),
  • and to h=1 k 0 d - c ( n , h ) for dc(n,2).

Moreover, if d is precisely equal to c(n,k 0 ), we define off S a holomorphic connection on a holomorphic bundle of rank π ' (n,d), such that the set of Abelian relations off S is isomorphic to the set of holomorphic sections of with vanishing covariant derivative: the curvature of this connection, which generalizes the Blaschke curvature, is then an obstruction for the rank of the web to reach the value π ' (n,d).

When n=2, S is always empty so that any web is ordinary, π ' (2,d)=π(2,d), and any d may be written c(2,k 0 ): we recover the results given in [9].
