We compute all the simply connected homogeneous and infinitesimally homogeneous surfaces admitting one or more invariant affine connections. We find exactly six non equivalent simply connected homogeneous surfaces admitting more than one…
We give a complete equisingular deformation classification of simple spatial quartic surfaces which are in fact $K3$-surfaces.
For every p >= 5, we determine all Z_p-invariant nonsingular quartic surfaces in the three dimensional projective space over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In some cases, we also determine their full projective…
We prove that $\delta$-invariants of smooth cubic surfaces are at least $\frac{6}{5}$.
We construct all quintic invariants in five variables with simple Non-Abelian finite symmetry groups. These define Calabi-Yau three-folds which are left invariant by the action of A_5, A_6 or PSL_2(11).
We study complex spatial quartic surfaces with simple singularities up to equisingular deformations; as a first step, give a complete equisingular deformation classification of the so-called non-special simple quartic surfaces.
For each finite primitive subgroup $G$ of $\operatorname{PGL}_4(\mathbb{C})$, we find all the smooth $G$-invariant quartic surfaces. We also find all the faithful representations in $\operatorname{PGL}_4(\mathbb{C})$ of the smooth quartic…
The first and second most symmetric nonsingular cubic surfaces are x^3+y^3+z^3+t^3=0 and x^2y+y^2z+z^2t+t^2x=0, respectively.
It is shown that there exist non-singular cubic surfaces in CP^3 containing 5 twistor lines. This is the maximum number of twistor fibres that a non-singular cubic can contain. Cubic surfaces in CP^3 with 5 twistor lines are classified up…
We construct examples of smooth surfaces S in P^6 with no trisecant lines. This list includes examples of surfaces not cut out by quadrics. We prove that unless S has a finite number of disjoint $(-1)$-lines, and each one meets some other…
In our previous works we have classified real non-singular cubic hypersurfaces in the 5-dimensional projective space up to equivalence that includes both real projective transformations and continuous variations of coefficients preserving…
We prove that singular minimal surfaces with constant Gauss curvature are planes, spheres and cylindrical surfaces. We also classify all singular minimal surfaces with a constant principal curvature and singular minimal surfaces with…
We show that every supersingular K3 surface in characteristic 5 with Artin invariant less than or equal to 3 is unirational.
A non-classical Godeaux surface is a minimal surface of general type with $\chi=K^2=1$ but with $h^{01}\neq0$. We prove that such surfaces fulfill $h^{01}=1$ and they can exist only over fields of positive characteristic at most 5. Like…
A fake quadric is a smooth minimal surface of general type with the same invariants as the quadric in P^3, i.e. K^2=2c_2=8 and q=p_g=0. We study here quaternionic fake quadrics i.e. fake quadrics constructed arithmetically by using some…
The algebra of differential invariants under $SA_3(\mathbb{R})$ of generic parabolic surfaces $S^2 \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ with nonvanishing Pocchiola $4^{\text{th}}$ invariant $W$ is shown to be generated, through invariant differentiations,…
We show the existence of odd fake $\mathbb{Q}$-homology quadrics, namely of minimal surfaces $S$ of general type which have the same $\mathbb{Q}$-homology as a smooth quadric $Q \cong (\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C}))^2$, but have an odd…
If $S$ is a quintic surface in $\mathbb P^3$ with singular set $15$ $3$-divisible ordinary cusps, then there is a Galois triple cover $\phi:X\to S$ branched only at the cusps such that $p_g(X)=4,$ $q(X)=0,$ $K_X^2=15$ and $\phi$ is the…
A surface in homogenous space Sol is said to be an invariant surface if it is invariant under some of the two 1-parameter groups of isometries of the ambient space whose fix point sets are totally geodesic surfaces. In this work we study…
We show that the Vassiliev invariants of orders $\leq n$ of a knot K, are obstructions to finding a regular Seifert surface, S, whose complement looks "simple" (e.g. like the complement of a disc) to the lower central series of its…
