As far as I can see, scrolls are constructed by means of rational curves. Is it possible a generalization with algebraic varieties of arbitrary dimension?

    $\begingroup$ I think the notion you are looking for is the join of two varieties. This is discussed in Harris' First Course. $\endgroup$ Apr 12, 2016 at 16:18

  • $\begingroup$ @TabesBridges: the join of two varieties $X$ and $Y$ consists of all the lines joining $X$ and $Y$, I want only the lines of type $P,P^{\phi}$, with $\phi$ an isomorphism between $X$ and $Y$. $\endgroup$
