We show that for every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a compact lamination by $\epsilon$-holomorphic surfaces in the complex projective plane, minimal, and that carries hyperbolic holonomy. We call $\epsilon$-holomorphic a real 2-dimensional…

We calculate the automorphism group of certain Enriques surfaces. The Enriques surfaces that we investigate include very general $n$-nodal Enriques surfaces and very general cuspidal Enriques surfaces. We also describe the action of the…

Geometric and dynamic properties of embeddings of SL(2,Z) into the Cremona group are studied. Infinitely many non-conjugate embeddings which preserve the type (i.e. which send elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic elements onto elements of the…

We classify, up to automorphisms, the elliptic fibrations on the singular K3 surface $X$ whose transcendental lattice is isometric to $\langle 6\rangle\oplus \langle 2\rangle$.

We give an effective iterative characterization of the classes of (smooth, rational) (-1)-curves on the blowup of the projective plane at general points. Such classes are characterized as having self-intersection -1, arithmetic genus 0, and…

We compute divisors class groups of singular surfaces. Most notably we produce an exact sequence that relates the Cartier divisors and almost Cartier divisors of a surface to the those of its normalization. This generalizes Hartshorne's…

We provide an explicit classification of supersingular elliptic curves in characteristic~3 into isomorphism classes, and give explicit formulae for their point counts. This report was written specifically to support implementation of point…

In the Labourie-Loftin parametrization of the Hitchin component of surface group representations into SL(3,R), we prove an asymptotic formula for holonomy along rays in terms of local invariants of the holomorphic differential defining that…

We determine the normalizer in $SL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$ of several families of congruence subgroups of $SL_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$. In addition, we show how these tools can be used to evaluate the groups of automorphisms and the discriminant kernels…

We describe special Ka\"hler geometry, special quaternionic manifolds, and very special real manifolds and analyze the structure of their isometries. The classification of the homogeneous manifolds of these types is presented.

In this study, we define a new type of direction curves in the Euclidean 3-space such as osculating-direction curve. We give the characterizations for these curves. Moreover, we obtain the relationships between osculating direction curves…

Let us have in S^2, R^2 or H^2 a pair of convex bodies, for S^2 different from S^2, such that the intersections of any congruent copies of them are centrally symmetric. Then our bodies are congruent circles. If the intersections of any…

We investigate helicoidal (screw) surfaces generated not only by regular curves but also by curves with singular points. For curves with singular points, it is useful to use frontals in the Euclidean plane. The helicoidal surface of a…
