Let $G$ be a group and $g$ a non-trivial element in $G$. If some non-empty finite product of conjugates of $g$ equals to the identity, then $g$ is called a generalized torsion element. The minimum number of conjugates in such a product is…

We give a survey of our previous work on relatively minimal isotrivial fibrations $\alpha \colon X \to C$, where $X$ is a smooth, projective surface and $C$ is a curve. In particular, we consider two inequalities involving the numerical…

In this paper we construct first examples of smooth projective surfaces of general type satisfying the following conditions: there are 1) an ample integral curve $C$ with $C^2=1$ and $h^0(X,O_X(C))=1$; \quad 2) a divisor $D$ with $(D,…

We give a combinatorial characterization of the group of quasiconformal homeomorphisms of a closed, oriented surface $S$ of genus at least $2$. In particular, we prove they are exactly the automorphisms of a graph of essential quasicircles…

We give upper bounds on the genus of a curve with general moduli assuming that it can be embedded in a projective nonsingular surface $Y$ so that $\dim(|C|) > 0$. We find such bounds for all types of surfaces of intermediate Kodaira…

Two groups are virtually isomorphic if they can be obtained one from the other via a finite number of steps, where each step consists in taking a finite extension or a finite index subgroup (or viceversa). Virtually isomorphic groups are…

Computing a quasi-developable strip surface bounded by design curves finds wide industrial applications. Existing methods compute discrete surfaces composed of developable lines connecting sampling points on input curves which are not…

In this paper we construct a new family of simply connected minimal complex surfaces of general type with $p_g=1$, $q=0$, and $K^2=3, 4, 5, 6, 8$ using a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothing theory. We also reconstruct minimal complex surfaces…

For a pair $(G,\mathcal{P})$ consisting of a group and finite collection of subgroups, we introduce a simplicial $G$-complex $\mathcal{K}(G,\mathcal{P})$ called the coset intersection complex. We prove that the quasi-isometry type and the…

A surface in a three-dimensional metric Lie group $G$ is said invariant if it is invariant with respect to a one-dimensional subgroup $\Gamma$ of the isometry group of $G$. Is this work we focus on unimodular metric Lie groups $G$ that can…

We investigate the following problem: Given two embeddings G_1 and G_2 of the same abstract graph G on an orientable surface S, decide whether G_1 and G_2 are isotopic; in other words, whether there exists a continuous family of embeddings…

This paper is devoted to the classification of irregular surfaces of general type with $p_g=q=2$ and non birational bicanonical map. The main result is that, if $S$ is such a surface and if $S$ is minimal with no pencil of curves of genus…

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…

In this article, we study subloci of solvable curves in $\mathcal{M}_g$ which are contained in either a K3-surface or a quadric or a cubic surface. We give a bound on the dimension of such subloci. In the case of complete intersection genus…

Given a certain triangulation of a punctured surface with boundary, we construct a new triangulated surface without punctures which covers it. This new surface is naturally equipped with an action of a group of order two, and its quotient…

Given a smooth complex surface S, and a compact connected global normal crossings divisor $D = \cup_i D_i$, we consider the local fundamental group, i.e., the fundamental group Gamma of T-D, where T is a good tubular neighbourhood of D. One…

For a complex smooth projective surface $M$ with an action of a finite cyclic group $G$ we give a uniform proof of the isomorphism between the invariant $H^1(G, H^2(M, {\mathbb Z}))$ and the first cohomology of the divisors fixed by the…

Let $S$ be a complete intersection of a smooth quadric 3-fold $Q$ and a hypersurface of degree $d$ in ${\mathbb P}^4$. In this paper we analyze GIT stability of $S$ with respect to the natural $G=SO(5, {\mathbb C})$-action. We prove that if…

We consider flat families of reduced curves on a smooth surface S such that each member C has the same number of singularities of fixed singularity types and the corresponding (locally closed) subscheme H of the Hilbert scheme of S. We are…

Let $\mathrm{Mod}(S_g)$ be the mapping class group of the closed orientable surface of genus $g \geq 2$. In this article, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions under which two torsion elements in $\mathrm{Mod}(S_g)$ will have…
