We give a functorial normal crossing compactification of the moduli of smooth marked cubic surfaces entirely analogous to the Grothendieck-Knudsen compactification $M_{0,n} \subset \bar{M}_{0,n}$.
The surfaces considered are real, rational and have a unique smooth real $(-2)$-curve. Their canonical class $K$ is strictly negative on any other irreducible curve in the surface and $K^2>0$. For surfaces satisfying these assumptions, we…
It is well known that every Del Pezzo surface of degree 5 defined over k is parametrizable over k. In this paper we give an efficient construction for parametrizing, as well as algorithms for constructing examples in every isomorphism class…
We show that any quasismooth Fano threefold weighted complete intersections of type $(12, 14)$ in $\mathbb{P} (1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 11)$ is birationally solid.
We consider smooth codimension two subcanonical subvarieties in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with $n \geq 5$, lying on a hypersurface of degree $s$ having a linear subspace of multiplicity $(s-2)$. We prove that such varieties are complete intersections.…
We estimate $\delta$-invariants of some singular del Pezzo surfaces with quotient singularities, which we studied ten years ago. As a result, we show that each of these surfaces admits an orbifold K\"ahler--Einstein metric.
Motivated by our study (elsewhere) of linear syzygies of homogeneous ideals generated by quadrics and their restrictions to subvarieties of the ambient projective space, we investigate in this note possible zero-dimensional intersections of…
We introduce the notion of quasi-$F$-splitting in mixed characteristic and study Kodaira-type vanishing on quasi-$F$-splitting varieties. As an application, we prove a Kodaira-type vanishing on lifts of rational double point (RDP) del Pezzo…
This is the first article in a series aimed at classifying normal del Pezzo surfaces of Picard rank one over algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic up to an isomorphism. Our guiding invariant is the height of a del Pezzo…
A projective threefold transition $Y \xrightarrow{\phi} \bar{Y} \rightsquigarrow X$ is del Pezzo if $\phi$ contracts a smooth del Pezzo surface to a point. We show that the GW/PT correspondence holds on $Y$ implies that it holds on $X$. In…
We introduce the notion of strongly asymptotically log del Pezzo flags, and classify such flags under the assumption that their zero-dimensional part lies in the boundary. We use this result to give a new and conceptual proof of the…
We compute global log canonical thresholds of a large class of quasismooth well-formed del Pezzo weighted hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}(a_{1},a_{2},a_{3},a_{4})$. As a corollary we obtain the existence of orbifold K\"ahler--Einstein metrics…
We construct an infinite family of quartic del Pezzo surfaces over $\mathbb{F}_p(t)$ with no quadratic points, for all primes $p\neq 2$. This answers a question of Colliot--Th\'el\`ene, Creutz and Viray in the negative, which asks whether…
We introduce the notion of type-I projection cascade for a biregular model (infinite series) of log del Pezzo surfaces. We study the existence of type-I projection cascades for known classes of models of log del Pezzo surfaces, such that…
We study the algebraic Brauer classes on open del Pezzo surfaces of degree $4$. I.e., on the complements of geometrically irreducible hyperplane sections of del Pezzo surfaces of degree $4$. We show that the $2$-torsion part is generated by…
Let k be a perfect field. Recently J.-L. Colliot-Th\'el\`ene showed that two pointless quadric surfaces over k are birationally equivalent if and only if they are isomorphic. We show that this result holds for arbitrary del Pezzo surfaces…
In this paper we classify the monomial complete intersection algebras, in two variables, and of positive characteristic, which has the strong Lef- schetz property. Together with known results, this gives a complete classi- fication of the…
Log del Pezzo surfaces play the role of the opposite of surfaces of general type. We will completely classify all the log del Pezzo surfaces of rank 2 and Cartier index 3 with a unique singularity.
Let Y be a smooth del Pezzo surface of degree 3 polarized by a very ample divisor that is not proportional to the anticanonical one. Then the affine cone over Y is flexible in codimension one. Equivalently, such a cone has an open subset…
Let Cox(S) be the homogeneous coordinate ring of the blow-up S of P^2 in r general points, i.e., a smooth Del Pezzo surface of degree 9-r. We prove that for r=6 and 7, Proj(Cox(S)) can be embedded into G/P, where G is an algebraic group…
