SMOOTH, ISOLATED CURVES IN FAMILIES OF CALABI-YAU THREEFOLDS IN HOMOGENEOUS SPACES
Knutsen, Andreas Leopold;

Abstract
We show the existence of smooth isolated curves of different degrees and genera in Calabi-Yau threefolds that are complete intersections in homogeneous spaces. Along the way, we classify all degrees and genera of smooth curves on BN general K3 surfaces of genus $\small{{\mu}}$, where $\small{5{\leq}{\mu}{\leq}10}$. By results of Mukai, these are the K3 surfaces that can be realised as complete intersections in certain homogeneous spaces.
