Abstract
Let X be an arbitrary smooth hypersurface in of degree d. We prove the de Jong–Debarre conjecture for : the space of lines in X has dimension . We also prove an analogous result for k-planes: if , then the space of k-planes on X will be irreducible of the expected dimension. As applications, we prove that an arbitrary smooth hypersurface satisfying is unirational, and we prove that the space of degree-e curves on X will be irreducible of the expected dimension provided that .
