Motivated by homological mirror symmetry, this paper constructs explicit full exceptional collections for the canonical stacks associated with the series of log del Pezzo surfaces constructed by Johnson and Koll\'ar. These surfaces have…

Let $R = W(k)$ be the ring of Witt vectors over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p > 2$. Let $M$ be a three-dimensional regular integral flat projective $R$-scheme such that $H^0(M,\mathcal{O}_M) = R$ and the…

We show that any pseudo-effective divisor on a normal surface decomposes uniquely into its "integral positive" part and "integral negative" part, which is an integral analog of Zariski decompositions. By using this decomposition, we give…

In this article we prove a relative Kawamata-Viehweg vanishing-type theorem for PLT $3$-folds in characteristic $p>5$. We use this to prove the normality of minimal log canonical centers and the adjunction formula for codimension $2$…

We prove that there is a unique $R$-equivalence class on every del Pezzo surface of degree $4$ defined over the Laurent field $K=k((t))$ in one variable over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic not equal to $2$ or $5$. We…

We prove that a log surface has only finitely many weakly log canonical projective models with klt singularities up to log isomorphism, by reducing the problem to the boundedness of their polarization.

We construct the first examples of regular del Pezzo surfaces for which the irregularity (i.e. the dimension of the first cohomology group of the structure sheaf) is nonzero. We also find a restriction on the integer pairs that are possible…

In this paper we study quotients of del Pezzo surfaces of degree four and more over arbitrary field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic zero by finite groups of automorphisms. We show that if a del Pezzo surface $X$ contains a point defined over the…

The delta invariant interprets the criterion for the K-(poly)stability of log terminal Fano varieties. In this paper, we determine the whole local delta invariant for all weak del Pezzo surfaces with the anti-canonical degree $\geq 5$.

We classify equivariantly Gorenstein log del Pezzo surfaces with boundaries at infinity and with finite group actions such that the quotient surface modulo the finite group has Picard number one. We also determine the corresponding finite…

The purpose of this article is to develop techniques for estimating basis log canonical thresholds on logarithmic surfaces. To that end, we develop new local intersection estimates that imply log canonicity. Our main motivation and…

We prove Manin's conjecture for split smooth quintic del Pezzo surfaces over arbitrary number fields with respect to fairly general anticanonical height functions. After passing to universal torsors, we first show that we may restrict the…

Inspired by M-theory and superconformal field theory, we extend the notions of local Gromov-Witten invariants from the case of del Pezzo surfaces to shrinkable surfaces, a class of reducible surfaces with simple normal crossings satisfying…

In this paper we study the problem of existence of orbifold Kaehler-Einstein metrics on del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1 with Du Val singular points. Moreover we compute global log canonical thresholds of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1 with…

This article is a part of a series aimed at classifying normal del Pezzo surfaces of Picard rank one over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, up to an isomorphism. The key invariant guiding our classification is the…

The global log canonical threshold (or Tian's alpha-invariant) plays an important role in the geometry of Fano varieties. Tian showed that Fano manifolds with big alpha-invariant can be equipped with a Kahler-Einstein metric. In recent…

We prove that the Galois action on the exceptional curves on the generic del Pezzo surface of degree $d$ is maximal for all degrees $d$ and over any field $k$. As a consequence of the case $d=3$, we deduce that over $\mathbb{F}_q(u)$, 100%…

B.\,Ya.\,Levin has proved that zero set of a sine type function can be presented as a union of a finite number of separated sets, that is an important result in the theory of exponential Riesz bases. In the present paper we extend Levin's…

Motivated by the problem for the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein edge metrics, Cheltsov and Rubinstein conjectured the K-polystability of asymptotically log Fano varieties with small cone angles when the anti-log-canonical divisors are not…

We show that every split del Pezzo surface of degree d=5,4,3 or 2 has a universal torsor which is a dense open subset of the intersection of 6-d dilatations of the affine cone over the corresponding generalized Grassmannian G/P. Here a…
