Congruences of lines in , quadratic normality, and completely exceptional Monge-Amp\`ere equations
The existence is proved of two new families of locally Cohen-Macaulay sextic
threefolds in , which are not quadratically normal. These
threefolds arise naturally in the realm of first order congruences of lines as
focal loci and in the study of the completely exceptional Monge-Amp\`ere
equations. One of these families comes from a smooth congruence of multidegree
which is a smooth Fano fourfold of index two and genus 9.Comment: 16 page
