The correspondence between del Pezzo surfaces and field theory models over the complex numbers or for split real forms is extended to other real forms, in particular to those compatible with supersymmetry. Specifically, all theories of the…

We classify RDP del Pezzo surfaces with global vector fields over arbitrary algebraically closed fields of characteristic $p \neq 2$. In characteristic $0$, every RDP del Pezzo surface $X$ is equivariant, that is, ${\rm Aut}_X = {\rm…

We study real Campedelli surfaces up to real deformations and exhibit a number of such surfaces which are equivariantly diffeomorphic but not real deformation equivalent.

The main result of the paper is a boundedness for $n$-complements on algebraic surfaces. In addition, applications of this theorem to a classification of log Del Pezzo surfaces and of birational contractions for 3-folds are formulated.

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…

We construct an example of a field and a del Pezzo surface of degree $2$ over this field without points such that its automorphism group is isomorphic to $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{F}_7) \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z},$ which is the largest…

We classify all complex surfaces with quotient singularities that do not contain any smooth rational curves, under the assumption that the canonical divisor of the surface is not pseudo-effective. As a corollary we show that if $X$ is a log…

For a regular del Pezzo surface $X$, we prove that $|-12K_X|$ is very ample. Furthermore, we also give an explicit upper bound for the volume $K_X^2$ which depends only on $[k : k^p]$ for the base field $k$. As a consequence, we obtain the…

We establish a couple of dynamical properties of surjective rational maps $f: X \dashrightarrow X$ for smooth projective surfaces $X$. We also give a numerical characterization of regular $f$ in the case when $X$ is a del Pezzo surface.…

A toric del Pezzo surface $X_P$ with cyclic quotient singularities determines and is determined by a Fano polygon $P$. We construct an affine manifold with singularities that partially smooths the boundary of $P$; this a tropical version of…

We obtain a formula for the number of genus two curves with a fixed complex structure of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This is done by extending the…

In earlier joint work with our collaborators Akhtar, Coates, Corti, Heuberger, Kasprzyk, Prince and Tveiten, we gave a conjectural classification of a broad class of orbifold del Pezzo surfaces, using Mirror Symmetry. We proposed that del…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $H\subseteq G$ be its subgroup. We prove that if a smooth del Pezzo surface over an algebraically closed field is $H$-birationally rigid then it is also $G$-birationally rigid, answering a geometric version of…

We present a description for the automorphism groups of Du Val del Pezzo surfaces whose automorphism groups are infinite.

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 define a series of relative tropical Welschinger-type invariants of real toric surfaces. In the Del Pezzo case, these invariants can be seen as real tropical analogs of relative Gromov-Witten invariants, and are subject to a recursive…

We solve categorical Torelli problem for quartic del Pezzo surfaces. That is, we prove that a del Pezzo surface of degree $4$ can be canonically reconstructed from its Kuznetsov component, which is the orthogonal subcategory to the…

We give a lower bound for the delta invariant of the fundamental divisor of a quasi-smooth weighted hypersurface. As a consequence, we prove K-stability of a large class of quasi-smooth Fano hypersurfaces of index 1 and of all smooth Fano…

We classify Galois actions on Picard lattices of del Pezzo surfaces of degrees 1,2, and 3 giving rise to minimal surfaces with no cohomological obstructions to stable rationality.

We prove that the integral points are potentially Zariski dense in the complement of a reduced effective singular anticanonical divisor in a smooth del Pezzo surface, with the exception of $\mathbb{P}^2$ minus three concurrent lines (for…
