For every field $k$ of characteristic zero, we determine the groups that act as automorphisms on a smooth cubic surface over $k$. We also determine the groups that act on $k$-rational, stably $k$-rational, or $k$-unirational smooth cubic…
A closed Riemann surface $S$ (of genus at least one) is called an origami curve if it admits a non-constant holomorphic map $\beta:S \to E$ with at most one branch value, where $E$ is a genus one Riemann surface. In this case, $(S,\beta)$…
We determine explicitly the structure of the automorphism group of a parabolic Inoue surface. We also describe the quotients of the surface by typical cyclic subgroups of the automorphism group.
We consider a surface that admits a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein degeneration to a cyclic quotient singularity $\frac{1}{dn^2}(1,dna-1)$. Under several technical assumptions, we construct $d$ exceptional vector bundles of rank $n$ which are…
For a relatively minimal surface fibration $f: X\to C$, the equivariant automorphism group of $f$ is, roughly speaking, the group of automorphisms of $X$ preserving the fibration structure. We present a classification of such fibrations of…
Let X be a singular real rational surface obtained from a smooth real rational surface by performing weighted blow-ups. Denote by Aut(X) the group of algebraic automorphisms of X into itself. Let n be a natural integer and let…
A Beauville surface is a rigid surface of general type arising as a quotient of a product of curves $C_{1}$, $C_{2}$ of genera $g_{1},g_{2}\ge 2$ by the free action of a finite group $G$. In this paper we study those Beauville surfaces for…
The fine curve graph of a surface was introduced by Bowden, Hensel, and Webb as a graph consisting of essential simple closed curves on the surface. Long, Margalit, Pham, Verberne, and Yao proved that the automorphism group of the fine…
We prove that, except in certain low-complexity cases, the automorphism group of the graph of pants decompositions of a nonorientable surface is isomorphic to the mapping class group of that surface.
For every p >= 5, we determine all Z_p-invariant nonsingular quartic surfaces in the three dimensional projective space over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In some cases, we also determine their full projective…
The special linear groups, the mapping class groups of surfaces, the outer autormorphism groups of free groups appear in numerous domains. Their analogies, developped in particular in K. Vogtmann's work, have been written about a lot. In…
Quasi-homogeneous surfaces, or Gizatullin surfaces, are normal affine surfaces such that there exists an open orbit of the automorphism group with a finite complement. If the action of the automorphism group is transitive, the surface is…
Dessins d'enfants are combinatorial structures on compact Riemann surfaces defined over algebraic number fields, and regular dessins are the most symmetric of them. If G is a finite group, there are only finitely many regular dessins with…
The paper concerns the automorphism groups of Cayley graphs over cyclic groups which have a rational spectrum (rational circulant graphs for short). With the aid of the techniques of Schur rings it is shown that the problem is equivalent to…
We study relations among the classical thetanulls of cyclic curves, namely curves $\mathcal X$ (of genus $g(\mathcal X)>1$) with an automorphism $\sigma$ such that $\sigma$ generates a normal subgroup of the group $G$ of automorphisms, and…
In this paper, we endow the family of all closed genus $g \ge 1$ surfaces with a structure of a (co)cyclic object in the category of 3-dimensional cobordisms. As a corollary, any $3$-dimensional TQFT induces a (co)cyclic module, which we…
A spherical n-gon is a bordered surface homeomorphic to a closed disk, with n distinguished boundary points called corners, equipped with a Riemannian metric of constant curvature 1, except at the corners, and such that the boundary arcs…
Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 2$. Let $Aut(X)$ be its group of automorphisms and $G\subseteq Aut(X)$ a subgroup. Sharp upper bounds for $|G|$ in terms of $g$ are known if $G$ belongs to certain classes of groups, e.g.…
In this paper, we investigate automorphisms of compact K\"ahler manifolds with different levels of topological triviality. In particular, we provide several examples of smooth complex projective surfaces X whose groups of…
We classify real two-dimensional orbits of conformal subgroups such that the orbits contain two circular arcs through a point. Such surfaces must be toric and admit a M\"obius automorphism group of dimension at least two. Our theorem…
