Atiyah classifies vector bundles on elliptic curves $E$ over an algebraically closed field of any characteristic. On the other hand, a rank $2$ vector bundle on $E$ defines a surface $S$ with a $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundle structure on $E$. We…
We classify elliptic fibrations birational to a nonsingular, minimal cubic surface over a field of characteristic zero. Our proof is adapted to provide computational techniques for the analysis of such fibrations, and we describe an…
In this paper, we study the structure, deformations and the moduli spaces of complex projective surfaces admitting genus two fibrations over elliptic curves. We observe that, a surface admitting a smooth fibration as above is elliptic and…
In this paper we study a special class of fibrations on Delsarte surfaces. We call these fibrations Delsarte fibrations. We show that after a specific cyclic base change the fibration is the pull back of a fibration with three singular…
We study automorphism groups of fibered surfaces for finite cyclic covering fibrations of an elliptic surface. We estimate the order of a finite subgroup of automorphism groups in terms of the genus of the fiber, the genus of the base…
We consider the K3 surfaces that arise as double covers of the elliptic modular surface of level 5, $R_{5,5}$. Such surfaces have a natural elliptic fibration induced by the fibration on $R_{5,5}$. Moreover, they admit several other…

Let $X$ be a rational elliptic surface with elliptic fibration $\pi:X\to\Bbb{P}^1$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of any characteristic. Given a conic bundle $\varphi:X\to\Bbb{P}^1$ we use numerical arguments to classify all…
In this paper we develop the theory of equisingular deformations of plane curve singularities in arbitrary characteristic. We study equisingular deformations of the parametrization and of the equation and show that the base space of its…
We investigate fibrations by non-hyperelliptic curves of arithmetic genus three and geometric genus one in characteristic two. Assuming that there is only one moving singularity and that its image in the Frobenius pullback of the fibration…
We study the Seiberg-Witten curves for N=2 SUSY gauge theories arising from type IIA string configurations with two orientifold sixplanes. Such theories lift to elliptic models in M-theory. We express the M-theory background for these…
We determine and list all possible configurations of singular fibres on rational elliptic surfaces in characteristic three. In total, we find that 267 distinct configurations exist. This result complements Miranda and Persson's…
We pose the problem to determine explicit defining equations of various elliptic fibrations on a given $K3$ surface, and study the case of the Kummer surfaces of the product of two elliptic curves.
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 a smooth threefold over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that an arbitrary flop of $X$ is smooth. To this end, we study Gorenstein curves of genus one and two-dimensional elliptic singularities…

Desingularized fiber products of semi-stable, non-isotrivial jacobian elliptic surfaces with vanishing third Betti number are classified. Such varieties may play a role in the study of supersingular threefolds, of the deformation theory of…
In this note, an overview of Calabi-Yau varieties in positive characteristic is presented. Although Calabi-Yau varieties in characteristic zero are unobstructed, there are examples of Calabi-Yau threefolds in positive characteristic which…
