There are only a few invariants one classically associates with precompact translation surfaces, among them certain numberfields, i.e. fields which are finite extensions of the field Q of rational numbers. These fields are closely related…
We generalise a method of Xiao Gang to construct 'prototypes' of fibred surfaces with maximal irregularity without being a product. This enables us, in the case of fibre genus g=3 to describe the possible singular fibres and to calculate…
We recast elliptic surfaces over the projective line in terms of the non-commutative tori and one-parameter families of the periodic continued fractions. The correspondence is used to study the Picard numbers, the ranks and the minimal…
In arXiv:2011.08830 we established a series of correspondences relating five enumerative theories of log Calabi-Yau surfaces, i.e. pairs $(Y,D)$ with $Y$ a smooth projective complex surface and $D=D_1+\dots +D_l$ an anticanonical divisor on…
We compute an explicit rank bound on the Picard group of the compact surfaces, which can serve as the base of an elliptic Calabi-Yau variety with canonical singularities. To bound the Picard rank from above, we develop a novel strategy in…
One of the major open problems in noncommutative algebraic geometry is the classification of noncommutative projective surfaces (or, slightly more generally, of noetherian connected graded domains of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension 3). In a…
After introducing a noncommutative counterpart of commutative algebraic geometry based on monoidal categories of quasi-coherent sheaves we show that various constructions in noncommutative geometry (e.g. Morita equivalences, Hopf-Galois…
We compute small rational models for configuration spaces of points on oriented surfaces, as right modules over the framed little disks operad. We do this by splitting these surfaces in unions of several handles. We first describe rational…
We construct three sequences of regular surfaces of general type with unbounded numerical invariants whose canonical map is 2-to-1 onto a canonically embedded surface. Only sporadic examples of surfaces with these properties were previously…
In this paper, we study $\mathbb{A}^1$-equivalence classes of zero cycles on open complex algebraic surfaces. We prove the logarithmic version of Mumford's theorem on zero cycles and prove that log Bloch's conjecture holds for…
We determine all the Kummer-surface-type Calabi-Yau (CY) 3-folds, i.e., those $\hat{T/G}$ which are resolutions of 3-torus-orbifolds $T/G$ with only isolated singularities. There are only two such CY spaces: one with $G= \ZZ_3$ and $T$…
We provide generalizations of the notions of Atiyah class and Kodaira-Spencer map to the case of framed sheaves. Moreover, we construct closed two-forms on the moduli spaces of framed sheaves on surfaces. As an application, we define a…
Complex Ricci-flat (i.e., Calabi-Yau) hypersurfaces in spaces admitting a maximal (toric) $U(1)^n$ gauge symmetry of general type (encoded by certain non-convex and multi-layered multitopes) may degenerate, but can be smoothed by rational…
We consider non-commutative deformations of sheaves on algebraic varieties. We develop some tools to determine parameter algebras of versal non-commutative deformations for partial simple collections and the structure sheaves of smooth…
Noncommutative surfaces finite over their centres can be realised as orders over surfaces. The aim of this paper is to present a noncommutative generalisation of rational singularities, which we call numerical rationality, for such orders.…
We propose and compare various techiques available to produce smooth cubic hypersurfaces over a non-algebraically-closed field which have rational points but which are not stably rational over their ground field.
We classify commutative algebraic monoid structures on normal affine surfaces over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. The answer is given in two languages: comultiplications and Cox coordinates. The result follows from a…
We prove the first instance of a conjecture by Kontsevich-Soibelman that the non-archimedean period map recovers the analytic periods in the case of log Calabi-Yau surfaces. In particular, we show that the K-affine structure, a natural…
The aim of the paper is to attach a noncommutative cluster-like structure to each marked surface $\Sigma$. This is a noncommutative algebra ${\mathcal A}_\Sigma$ generated by "noncommutative geodesics" between marked points subject to…
We determine the topological complexity of unordered configuration spaces on almost all punctured surfaces (both orientable and non-orientable). We also give improved bounds for the topological complexity of unordered configuration spaces…
