Motivated by the Calabi problem concerning Kähler-Einstein metrics on Fano manifolds, the problem when the tangent bundle of a Fano manifold is stable has been studied by many authors. In [PW], Fano manifolds with Picard number 1 were studied and it was proved that many of them have stable tangent bundles. In particular, it was proved that all Fano manifolds with Picard number 1 of dimension≤ 4 have stable tangent bundles. Their proof depends on some results on cohomological vanishing and on the classification theory of Fano manifolds of large index.In this note, we would like to introduce a different approach, based on rational curves, which gives the (semi-) stability of the tangent bundles of some Fano manifolds with Picard number 1 rather easily. The relation between rational curves and the stability of tangent bundles was originally used by Miyaoka in his work on the generic seminegativity of the tangent bundles of non-uniruled varieties ([Mi],[Sh]). Here we push it further and study the relation to the projective geometry of the variety of tangent directions to rational curves. We start with a reformulation of the definition of the stability in terms of rational curves. This is a straightforward generalization of the definition in [OSS]. Let X be an n-dimensional Fano manifold with Picard number 1 and T be the tangent bundle of X. Fix a component K of the Chow scheme whose generic members correspond to rational curves on X, where the restriction of T splits as O (2)⊕[O (1)] p⊕ O n− 1− p for some integer p< n. Recall that such K always exists by the bend-and-break argument of [Mr]. Also it is well-known that given
