We classify quartic del Pezzo surface fibrations over the projective line via numerical invariants, giving explicit examples for small values of the invariants. For generic such fibrations, we describe explicitly the geometry of spaces of…

For each del Pezzo surface $S$ with du Val singularities, we determine whether it admits a $(-K_S)$-polar cylinder or not. If it allows one, then we present an effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $D$ that is $\mathbb{Q}$-linearly equivalent to…

We compute the Chow quotient of the complete flag variety of isotropic subspaces of a four dimensional complex vector space with respect to a skew/symmetric form, and show that it is a singular del Pezzo surface of degree four.

We prove that all geometric helices in the derived category of coherent sheaves on a del Pezzo surface are related by a sequence of elementary operations: rotation, shifting, orthogonal reordering, tensoring by a line bundle, and tilting.…

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…

In his book "Cubic forms" Manin discovered that del Pezzo surfaces are related to root systems. To explain the many numerical coincidences Batyrev conjectured that a universal torsor on a del Pezzo surface can be embedded in a certain…

We classify del Pezzo surfaces with 1/3(1,1) points in 29 qG-deformation families grouped into six unprojection cascades (this overlaps with work of Fujita and Yasutake), we tabulate their biregular invariants, we give good model…

We generalize a theorem of Delzant classifying compact connected symplectic manifolds with completely integrable torus actions to certain singular symplectic spaces. The assumption on singularities is that if they are not finite quotient…

This paper is a survey about $K3$ surfaces with an automorphism and log rational surfaces, in particular, log del Pezzo surfaces and log Enriques surfaces. It is also a reproduction on my talk at "Mathematical structures of integrable…

We give a new geometric proof of the classification of $T$-polygons, a theorem originally due to Kasprzyk, Nill and Prince, using ideas from mirror symmetry. In particular, this gives a completely geometric proof that any two toric…

We explore the topology of real Lagrangian submanifolds in a toric symplectic manifold which come from involutive symmetries on its moment polytope. We establish a real analog of the Delzant construction for those real Lagrangians, which…

We study quartic surfaces that admit a group of projective automorphisms isomorphic to icosahedron group.

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…

I construct normal del Pezzo surfaces, and regular weak del Pezzo surfaces as well, with positive irregularity q>0. Such things can happen only over nonperfect fields. The surfaces in question are twisted forms of nonnormal del Pezzo…

We determine which singular del Pezzo surfaces are equivariant compactifications of G_a^2, to assist with proofs of Manin's conjecture for such surfaces. Additionally, we give an example of a singular quartic del Pezzo surface that is an…

More strong version of the main inductive theorem about the complements on surfaces is proved and the models of exceptional log del Pezzo surfaces with $\delta=0$ are constructed

Previous work of the authors showed that every quartic del Pezzo surface over a number field has index dividing $2$ (i.e., has a closed point of degree $2$ modulo $4$),, and asked whether such surfaces always have a closed point of degree…

We prove that, in all except one case, a Gorenstein del Pezzo surface of Picard rank 1 admits an int-amplified endomorphism if and only if it is a quotient of a toric variety by a finite group which acts freely in codimension one and…

We find normal forms for del Pezzo surfaces of degree $2$ over algebraically closed fields of characteristic $2$. For each normal form, we describe the structure of the group of automorphisms of the surface. In particular, we classify all…

We state a number of conjectures that together allow one to classify a broad class of del Pezzo surfaces with cyclic quotient singularities using mirror symmetry. We prove our conjectures in the simplest cases. The conjectures relate…
