Abstract
For a general cubic fourfold with Fano variety F, we compute the Hodge numbers of the locus of lines of second type and the class of the locus of triple lines, using the description of the latter in terms of flag varieties. We also give an upper bound of 6 for the degree of irrationality of the Fano scheme of lines of any smooth cubic hypersurface.
