We construct algebraic geometric codes from del Pezzo surfaces and focus on the ones having Picard rank one and the codes associated to the anticanonical class. We give explicit constructions of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 4, 5 and 6,…
We classify geometrically integral regular del Pezzo surfaces which are not geometrically normal over imperfect fields of positive characteristic. Based on this classification, we show that a three-dimensional terminal del Pezzo fibration…
For split smooth Del Pezzo surfaces, we analyse the structure of the effective cone and prove a recursive formula for the value of alpha, appearing in the leading constant as predicted by Peyre of Manin's conjecture on the number of…
In this paper, we study the geometry of trisections on certain rational elliptic surfaces. We utilize Mumford representations of semi-reduced divisors in order to construct trisections and related plane curves with interesting properties…
We classify del Pezzo non-commutative surfaces that are finite over their centres and have no worse than canonical singularities. Using the minimal model program, we introduce the minimal model of such surfaces. We first classify the…
The Welschinger invariants of real rational algebraic surfaces are natural analogues of the Gromov-Witten invariants, and they estimate from below the number of real rational curves passing through prescribed configurations of points. We…
The surfaces considered are real, rational and have a unique smooth real $(-2)$-curve. Their canonical class $K$ is strictly negative on any other irreducible curve in the surface and $K^2>0$. For surfaces satisfying these assumptions, we…
We consider a real del Pezzo surface without points. We prove that the same surface over complex numbers field $\mathbb{C}$ has Picard number is at least two.
We construct the first examples of regular del Pezzo surfaces for which the irregularity (i.e. the dimension of the first cohomology group of the structure sheaf) is nonzero. We also find a restriction on the integer pairs that are possible…
Determining the number of pieces after cutting a cake is a classical problem. Roberts (1887) provided an exact solution by computing the number of chambers contained in a plane cut by lines. About 88 years later, Zaslavsky (1975) even…
The invariance of the Welschinger numbers for real unnodal Del Pezzo surfaces, which we used for the enumeration of real rational curves on real toric Del Pezzo surfaces (see math.AG/0303378 and IMRN 49 (2003), 2639-2653), follows from…
Detailed illustration of the method for calculating the Chow group of a rational surface over a local field [math.AG/0302157 (th.~4)], applied to a certain del Pezzo surface of degree~4. Involves the construction of a regular integral model…
We prove that the quadratically enriched count of rational curves in a smooth toric del Pezzo surface passing through $k$-rational points and pairs of conjugate points in quadratic field extensions $k\subset k(\sqrt{d_i})$ can be determined…
We give a complete deformation classification of real Zariski sextics, that is of generic apparent contours of nonsingular real cubic surfaces. As a by-product, we observe a certain "reversion" duality in the set of deformation classes of…
Inspired by the recent progress by Coates-Corti-Kasprzyk et al. on Mirror Symmetry for del Pezzo surfaces, we show that for any positive integer k the deformation families of del Pezzo surfaces with a single 1/k(1,1) singularity (and no…
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…
We report on our project to construct non-singular cubic surfaces over $\bbQ$ with a rational line. Our method is to start with degree 4 Del Pezzo surfaces in diagonal form. For these, we develop an explicit version of Galois descent.
Computing the real solutions to a system of polynomial equations is a challenging problem, particularly verifying that all solutions have been computed. We describe an approach that combines numerical algebraic geometry and sums of squares…
We provide an algorithm for detecting the involutions leaving a surface defined by a polynomial parametrization invariant. As a consequence, the symmetry axes, symmetry planes and symmetry center of the surface, if any, can be determined…
We construct jacobians of plane quartics without complex multiplication, using Del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2.
