Abstract

We prove the existence of a canonical zero-cycle \(c_X\) on a Calabi–Yau hypersurface X in a complex projective homogeneous variety. More precisely, we show that the intersection of any n divisors on X, \(n=\mathrm {dim}\,X\) is proportional to the class of a point on a rational curve in X.
