For a binary quartic form $\phi$ without multiple factors, we classify the quartic K3 surfaces $\phi(x,y)=\phi(z,t)$ whose Neron-Severi group is (rationally) generated by lines. For generic binary forms $\phi$, $\psi$ of prime degree…
We answer a question of T.Shioda and show that, for any positive integer $m$ prime to 6, the Picard group of the Fermat surface $\Phi_m$ is generated by the classes of lines contained in $\Phi_m$.
The generating functions of the Severi degrees for sufficiently ample line bundles on algebraic surfaces are multiplicative in the topological invariants of the surface and the line bundle. Recently new proofs of this fact were given for…
We prove an analogue of the Brauer-Siegel theorem for Fermat surfaces over a finite field. Namely, letting $F_d$ be the Fermat surface of degree $d$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ and $p_g(F_d)$ be its geometric genus, we consider the product of the…
We prove the sharp bound of at most 64 lines on complex projective quartic surfaces (resp. affine quartics) that are not ruled by lines. We study configurations of lines on certain non-K3 surfaces of degree four and give various examples of…
We give a version of the Artin-Tate formula for surfaces over finite fields not assuming Tate's conjecture. It gives an equality between terms related to the Brauer group on the one hand and terms related to the Neron-Severi group on the…
We construct examples of non-projective normal proper algebraic surfaces and discuss the pathological behaviour of their Neron-Severi group. Our surfaces are birational to the product of a projective line and a curve of higher genus.
We consider fibrations by affine lines on smooth affine surfaces obtained as complements of smooth rational curves $B$ in smooth projective surfaces $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We observe that…
We prove a bound on the number of lines on a smooth degree-d surface in three-dimensional projective space for $d \geq 3$. This bound improves a bound due to Segre and renders some of his arguments rigorous. It is the best known bound for…
A construction of algebraic surfaces based on two types of simple arrangements of lines, containing the prototiles of substitution tilings, has been proposed recently. The surfaces are derived with the help of polynomials obtained from…
The Modular Group provides simple proofs of Fermat's representations: X^2+Y^2 for primes congruent to 1 (mod 4) and by X^2+3Y^2 for primes congruent to 1 (mod 3)
In this paper, we investigate the ruled surfaces generated by a straight line according to rotation minimizing frame (RMF). Using this frame of a straight line, we obtained the necessary and sufficient conditions when the ruled surface is…
We investigate the hypersurfaces which are the generation of the Fermat hypersufaces, and determine their projective isomorphism classes.
We give an explicit formula for the $27$ lines of a smooth cubic surface near the Fermat surface. Our formula involves convergent power series with coefficients in the extension of rational numbers with the sixth root of unity. Our main…
In this paper, we study maximal sets of skew lines on Hermitian surfaces. We give a new algorithm to compute these sets and give some computational results for Hermitian surfaces of degrees 3,4, and 5. In more generality, this algorithm…
We give completely combinatorial proofs of the main results of [3] using polygons. Namely, we prove that the mapping class group of a surface with boundary acts faithfully on a finitely-generated linear category. Along the way we prove some…
We construct polylogarithms on families of pointed Riemann surfaces of any genus which describe monodromies of meromorphic connections with simple poles. Furthermore, we show that the polylogaritms are computable as power series in…
We prove an effective upper bound on the number of effective sections of a hermitian line bundle over an arithmetic surface. It is an effective version of the arithmetic Hilbert--Samuel formula in the nef case. As a consequence, we obtain…
We suggest an algorithm computing, in some cases, an explicit generating set for the N\'eron--Severi lattice of a Delsarte surface.
In this paper, we analyze properties of prime number sequences produced by the alternating sum of higher-order subsequences of the primes. We also introduce a new sieve which will generate these prime number sequences via the systematic…
