This paper is an addendum to [4], in which the authors constructed a simply connected minimal complex surface of general type with p_g=0 and K^2=3. In this paper we construct a new non-simply connected minimal surface of general type with…

We study the projective normality of a minimal surface $X$ which is a ramified double covering over a rational surface $S$ with $\dim|-K_S|\ge 1$. In particular Horikawa surfaces, the minimal surfaces of general type with $K^2_X=2p_g(X)-4$,…

For all k>0 integer, we consider the regularised I-function of the family of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 8k+4 in P(2,2k+1,2k+1, 4k+1), first constructed by Johnson and Koll\'ar. We show that this function, which is of hypergeometric type,…

Using the Kodaira dimension and the fundamental group of X, we succeed in classifying algebraic surfaces which are dominable by C^2 except for certain cases in which X is an algebraic surface of Kodaira dimension zero and the case when X is…

We introduce the notion of log-Riemann surfaces. These are Riemann surfaces given by cutting and pasting planes together isometrically, and come equipped with a holomorphic local diffeomorphism to C called the projection map, and a…

For compact Riemann surfaces, the collar theorem and Bers' partition theorem are major tools for working with simple closed geodesics. The main goal of this paper is to prove similar theorems for hyperbolic cone-surfaces. Hyperbolic…

Classically, an indecomposable class $R$ in the cone of effective curves on a K3 surface $X$ is representable by a smooth rational curve if and only if $R^2=-2$. We prove a higher-dimensional generalization conjectured by Hassett and…

We give a bound on which singularities may appear on Koll\'ar--Shepherd-Barron--Alexeev stable surfaces for a wide range of topological invariants and use this result to describe all stable numerical quintic surfaces (KSBA-stable surfaces…

We discuss several geometric features of a Kummer surface associated with a (1,2)-polarized abelian surface defined over the field of complex numbers. In particular, we show that any such Kummer surface can be modeled as the double cover of…

We study projective surfaces $X \subset \mathbb{P}^r$ (with $r \geq 5$) of maximal sectional regularity and degree $d > r$, hence surfaces for which the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity $\reg(\mathcal{C})$ of a general hyperplane section…

We consider surfaces $X$ defined by plane divisorial valuations $\nu$ of the quotient field of the local ring $R$ at a closed point $p$ of the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$ over an arbitrary algebraically closed field $k$ and centered at…

Let $(S,D)$ be a minimal log pair of general type with $S$ a smooth projective surface and $D$ a simple normal corssing reduced divisor on $S$. We assume that its log canonial linear system $|K_S+D|$ is composed of a penciel, let $f\colon…

We introduce one of the most beautiful algebraic varieties known, a quintic hypersurface in projective five-space, which is invariant under the action of the Weyl group of $E_6$. This variety is intricately related with many other moduli…

In this article we determine exactly which line bundles on elliptic ruled surface X are normally presented. In particular we see that numerical classes of normally presented divisors form a convex set. (recall that Num(X) is generated by…

For a smooth projective surface $S$, Johnson, Oprea, and Pandharipande defined cohomological descendent generating series for the Quot schemes of rank-$0$ quotients of $\mathcal{O}_S^{\oplus N}$. We prove that these series are rational in…

We give a complete classification of Q_l-cohomology projective planes with isolated ADE-singularities and numerically trivial canonical bundle in odd characteristic. This leads to a beautiful relation with certain Enriques surfaces which…

Let $k$ a field of characteristic zero. Let $X$ be a smooth, projective, geometrically rational $k$-surface. Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a universal torsor over $X$ with a $k$-point et $\mathcal{T}^c$ a smooth compactification of $\mathcal{T}$.…

Let W -> X be a real smooth projective threefold fibred by rational curves. Koll\'ar proved that if W(R) is orientable a connected component N of W(R) is essentially either a Seifert fibred manifold or a connected sum of lens spaces. Let k…

We prove the modularity of a positive proportion of abelian surfaces over $\mathbf{Q}$. More precisely, we prove the modularity of abelian surfaces which are ordinary at $3$ and are $3$-distinguished, subject to some assumptions on the…

We prove the existence of rotational hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{H}^n\times \mathbb{R}$ with $H_{r+1}=0$ and we classify them. Then we prove some uniqueness theorems for $r$-minimal hypersurfaces with a given (finite or asymptotic) boundary.…
