We prove that there is a unique $R$-equivalence class on every del Pezzo surface of degree $4$ defined over the Laurent field $K=k((t))$ in one variable over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic not equal to $2$ or $5$. We…
In this paper, we study the K-stability of del Pezzo surfaces with a single quotient singularity whose minimal resolution admits exactly two exceptional curves \(E_1\) and \(E_2\) with \(E_{1}^2=-n\), \(E_{2}^2=-m\) for \(n,m\geq 2\).
We classify all generalized del Pezzo surfaces (i.e., minimal desingularizations of singular del Pezzo surfaces containing only rational double points) whose universal torsors are open subsets of hypersurfaces in affine space. Equivalently,…
We describe the GIT compactification of the moduli of (2,2)-type effective divisors of $\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^2$ (i.e., surfaces of the linear system $\vert \pi_1^*\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1}(2)\otimes…
We introduce and study the notion of $G$-coregularity of algebraic varieties endowed with an action of a finite group $G$. We compute $G$-coregularity of smooth del Pezzo surfaces of degree at least 6, and give a characterization of groups…
We study special $\mathbb{G}_m$-equivariant degenerations of a smooth del Pezzo surface $X$ induced by valuations that are log canonical places of $(X,C)$ for a nodal anti-canonical curve $C$. We show that the space of special valuations in…
A variety X with an action of a finite group G is said to be G-unirational if there is a G-equivariant dominant rational map V -> X where V is a faithful linear representation of G. This generalizes the usual notion of unirationality. We…
In this article, we consider weak del Pezzo surfaces defined over a finite field, and their associated, singular, anticanonical models. We first define arithmetic types for such surfaces, by considering the Frobenius actions on their Picard…
In this paper, we study compactifications of the moduli of smooth del Pezzo surfaces using K-stability and the line arrangement. We construct K-moduli of log del Pezzo pairs with sum of lines as boundary divisors, and prove that for…
We give a complete classification of del Pezzo surfaces with quotient singularities and Picard rank 1 which admit a Q-Gorenstein smoothing. There are 14 infinite families of toric examples. The surfaces in each family correspond to…
We investigate Manin's conjecture for del Pezzo surfaces of degree five with a conic bundle structure, proving matching upper and lower bounds, and the full conjecture in the Galois general case.
We give examples of K-unstable singular del Pezzo surfaces which are weighted hypersurfaces with index 2.
An asymptotic formula is established for the number of rational points of bounded height on a non-singular quartic del Pezzo surface with a conic bundle structure.
In an algebro-geometric way, we completely determine whether smooth del Pezzo surfaces are K-(semi)stable or not.
For each del Pezzo surface $S$ with du Val singularities, we determine whether it admits a $(-K_S)$-polar cylinder or not. If it allows one, then we present an effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $D$ that is $\mathbb{Q}$-linearly equivalent to…
On del Pezzo surfaces, we study effective ample $\mathbb{R}$-divisors such that the complements of their supports are isomorphic to $\mathbb{A}^1$-bundles over smooth affine curves.
We provide explicit graded constructions of orbifold del Pezzo surfaces with rigid orbifold points of type $\left\{k_i\times\frac{1}{r_i}(1,a_i): 3\le r_i \le 10,k_i \in \ZZ_{\ge 0}\right\}$; as well-formed and quasismooth varieties…
We classify equivariantly Gorenstein log del Pezzo surfaces with boundaries at infinity and with finite group actions such that the quotient surface modulo the finite group has Picard number one. We also determine the corresponding finite…
We prove the existence of singular del Pezzo surfaces that are neither K-semistable nor contain any anticanonical polar cylinder.
We classify all normal G^2_a-surfaces with Picard number one, and characterize which of these surfaces have at worst log canonical, and which have at worst log terminal singularities, answering a question of Hassett and Tschinkel (Int.…
