We prove that, except for a few cases, stable linearizability of finite subgroups of the plane Cremona group implies linearizability.

For perfect fields $k$ satisfying $[\bar k:k]>2$, we construct new normal subgroups of the plane Cremona group and provide an elementary proof of its non-simplicity, following the melody of the recent proof by Blanc, Lamy and Zimmermann…

We study finite non-linearizable subgroups of the plane Cremona group which potentially could be stably linearizable.

We show that for any $n\geq5$ there exist connected algebraic subgroups in the Cremona group $\mathrm{Bir}(\mathbb{P}^n)$ that are not contained in any maximal connected algebraic subgroup. Our approach exploits the existence of stably…

Two infinite families of Cremona maps depending on one real parameter are given. For all integers $n \ge 1$ the first family of Cremona maps consists of group elements in $Bir \left( \mathbb{P}^{n} \right)$ with bidegree $(n, n)$, the…

The Cremona group is the group of birational transformations of the complex projective plane. In this paper we classify its subgroups that consist only of elliptic elements using elementary model theory. This yields in particular a…

There is an established bijection between finite-index subgroups Gamma of Gamma(2) and bipartite graphs on surfaces, or, equivalently, certain triples of permutations. We utilize this relationship to study both congruence and noncongruence…

We survey some results on real rational surfaces focused on their topology and their birational geometry.

We prove that any group of cardinality at most the one of $\mathbb{C}$ is a quotient of any Cremona group of rank at least $4$. This provides a definitive answer to the question of what the quotients of Cremona groups can be. As a…

We prove that if $X$ is a rationally connected threefold and $G$ is a $p$-subgroup in the group of birational selfmaps of $X$, then $G$ is an abelian group generated by at most $3$ elements provided that $p\ge 17$. We also prove a similar…

We suggest an algorithm computing, in some cases, an explicit generating set for the N\'eron--Severi lattice of a Delsarte surface.

We derive presentation and relations for a group of compact Riemann surface that is given as branched cover of the sphere. In the case that one of the permutations is of full cycle of the form $(1...n)$ we derive a straightforward process…

We classify up to conjugacy the subgroups of certain types in the full, in the affine, and in the special affine Cremona groups. We prove that the normalizers of these subgroups are algebraic. As an application, we obtain new results in the…

In this paper I classify, up to Cremona transformations, the Galois cover of the plane with Galois group of the form $\mathbb Z_2^r$.

We classify all finite simple subgroups in the Cremona group of rank 3

Two divisors in $\P^n$ are said to be Cremona equivalent if there is a Cremona modification sending one to the other. We produce infinitely many non equivalent divisorial embeddings of any variety of dimension at most 14. Then we study the…

We develope basic geometric quantities and properties of hypersurfaces in Carnot groups.

We prove that any finitely generated subgroup of the plane Cremona group consisting only of algebraic elements is of bounded degree. This follows from a more general result on `decent' actions on infinite direct sums. We apply our results…

We give several sufficient conditions for a double of a free group along a cyclic subgroup to contain a surface subgroup.

We deal with the following question of Dolgachev : is the Cremona group generated by involutions ? Answer is yes in dimension $2$ (Cerveau-Deserti). We give an upper bound of the minimal number $\mathfrak{n}_\varphi$ of involutions we need…
