Abstract
In a previous paper, we proved that a projective K\"ahler manifold of positive total scalar curvature is uniruled. At the other end of the spectrum, it is a well-known theorem of Campana and Koll\'ar-Miyaoka-Mori that a projective K\"ahler manifold of positive Ricci curvature is rationally connected. In the present work, we investigate the intermediate notion of $k$-positive Ricci curvature and prove that for a projective $n$-dimensional K\"ahler manifold of $k$-positive Ricci curvature the MRC fibration has generic fibers of dimension at least $n-k+1$. We also establish an analogous result for projective K\"ahler manifolds of semi-positive holomorphic sectional curvature based on an invariant which records the largest codimension of maximal subspaces in the tangent spaces on which the holomorphic sectional curvature vanishes. In particular, the latter result confirms a conjecture of S.-T. Yau in the projective case.
