We investigate configurations of rational double points with the total Milnor number 21 on supersingular $K3$ surfaces. The complete list of possible configurations is given. As an application, we also give the complete list of extremal…

Branch points of a real 2-surface S in a 4-manifold M generalize the branch points of complex curves in complex surfaces: for example, they can occur as singularities of minimal surfaces. We investigate such a branch point p when S is…

In this paper we study some properties of degenerations of surfaces whose general fibre is a smooth projective surface and whose central fibre is a reduced, connected surface $X \subset IP^r$, $r \geq 3$, which is assumed to be a union of…

This paper, the last in a series of three, studies vector bundles on an elliptic surface whose determinant has odd intersection number with a general fiber and uses this study to calculate certain coefficients of Donaldson polynomials.

Let S be a smooth algebraic surface satisfying the following property: H^i(\oc_S(C))=0 (i=1,2) for any irreducible and reduced curve C of S. The aim of this paper is to provide a characterization of special linear systems on S which are…

An ordinary plane of a finite set of points in real 3-space with no three collinear is a plane intersecting the set in exactly three points. We prove a structure theorem for sets of points spanning few ordinary planes. Our proof relies on…

Using the techniques introduced by Corvaja and Zannier we solve the non-split case of the geometric Lang-Vojta Conjecture for affine surfaces isomorphic to the complement of a conic and two lines in the projective plane. In this situation…

We prove asymptotics for the proportion of fibres with a rational point in a conic bundle fibration. The basis of the fibration is a general hypersurface of low degree.

We prove a general specialization theorem which implies stable irrationality for a wide class of quadric surface bundles over rational surfaces. As an application, we solve with the exception of two cases, the stable rationality problem for…

In this work, we show that for a certain class of threefolds in positive characteristics, rational-chain-connectivity is equivalent to supersingularity. The same result is known for K3 surfaces with elliptic fibrations. And there are…

Motivated by the embedding problem of canonical models in small codimension, we extend Severi's double point formula to the case of surfaces with rational double points, and we give more general double point formulae for varieties with…

We study linear systems of surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ singular along general lines. Our purpose is to identify and classify special systems of such surfaces, i.e., those nonempty systems where the conditions imposed by the multiple lines…

In this note we relate about the problem of evaluate the dimension of linear systems through fat points defined on generic $K3$ surfaces.

In this paper, we show that if $X$ is a smooth variety of general type of dimension $m \geq 3$ for which the canonical map induces a triple cover onto $Y$, where $Y$ is a projective bundle over $\mathbf P^1$ or onto a projective space or…

We give construction of singular K3 surfaces with discriminant 3 and 4 as double coverings over the projective plane. Focusing on the similarities in their branching loci, we can generalize this construction, and obtain a three dimensional…

We prove that any number of general fat points of any multiplicities impose the expected number of conditions on a linear system on a smooth projective surface, in several cases including primitive linear systems on very general K3 and…

In this article, we study the geometry of plane curves obtained by three sections and another section given as their sum on certain rational elliptic surfaces. We make use of Mumford representations of semi-reduced divisors in order to…

We investigate the expected dimensionality of linear systems with general fat points on certain surfaces using an approach by specialization to elliptic surfaces. For the projectivization of the Atiyah bundle over an elliptic curve with a…

Let X be the blow-up of the three dimensional complex projective space along r general points of a smooth elliptic quartic curve B of P^3 and let L be any line bundle of X. The aim of this paper is to provide an explicit algorithm for…

We consider a semistable degeneration of K3 surfaces, equipped with an effective divisor that defines a polarisation of degree two on a general fibre. We show that the map to the relative log canonical model of the degeneration maps every…
