Surfaces of general type with canonical map of degree d bigger than 8 have bounded geometric genus and irregularity. In particular the irregularity is at most 2 if d>= 10. In the present paper, the existence of surfaces with d=10 and all…

We construct a surface of general type with canonical map of degree 12 which factors as a triple cover and a bidouble cover of $\mathbb P^2$. We also show the existence of a smooth surface with $q=0,$ $\chi=13$ and $K^2=9\chi$ such that its…
In this note we present examples of complex algebraic surfaces with canonical maps of degree $12$, $13$, $15$, $16$ and $18$. They are constructed as quotients of a product of two curves of genus $10$ and $19$ using certain non-free actions…
We construct a surface of general type with invariants \( \chi = K^2 = 1 \) and torsion group \( \Bbb{Z}/{2} \). We use a double plane construction by finding a plane curve with certain singularities, resolving these, and taking the double…
We construct a family of general type surfaces with $q=4$, $p_g=6$ and $K^2=24$. These surfaces enjoy some interesting properties: they are Lagrangian in their Albanese variety and their canonical map is $2:1$ onto a degree $12$ surface in…
In this note, we construct some minimal smooth surfaces of general type with canonical map of degree $ 13, 15, 17, 18, 21, 22 $. These surfaces are constructed as $ \mathbb{Z}_{3}^2$-covers of a blow-up of $ \mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^1…

This note describes minimal surfaces $S$ of general type satisfying $p_g\geq 5$ and $K^2=2p_g$. For $p_g\geq 8$ the canonical map of such surfaces is generically finite of degree 2 and the bulk of the paper is a complete characterization of…

We study minimal complex surfaces S of general type with q(S)=q and p_g(S)=2q-3, q>= 5. We give a complete classification in case that S has a fibration onto a curve of genus >=2. For these surfaces K^2=8\chi. In general we prove that…
Let $S$ be a minimal surface of general type with $p_g = q = 1, K_S^2 = 7$. We prove that the degree of the bicanonical map is 1 or 2. Furthermore, if the degree is 2, we describe $S$ by a double cover.
We carry out an analysis of the canonical system of a minimal complex surface of general type with irregularity q>0. Using this analysis we are able to sharpen in the case q>0 the well known Castelnuovo inequality K^2>=3p_g+q-7. Then we…
