In this paper we consider Gorenstein stable surfaces with $K^2_X=1$ and positive geometric genus. Extending classical results, we show that such surfaces admit a simple description as weighted complete intersection. We exhibit a wealth of…
We classify - as far as possible - Gorenstein stable surfaces with $K_X^2 = 1$ and $\chi(\mathcal O_X) = 2$, describing several strata in the moduli space quite in detail.
We classify log-canonical pairs $(X, \Delta)$ of dimension two with $K_X+\Delta$ an ample Cartier divisor with $(K_X+\Delta)^2=1$, giving some applications to stable surfaces with $K^2=1$. A rough classification is also given in the case…
The compactification $\overline M_{1,3}$ of the Gieseker moduli space of surfaces of general type with $K_X^2 =1 $ and $\chi(X)=3$ in the moduli space of stable surfaces parametrises so-called stable I-surfaces. We classify all such…
We define and study a concrete stratification of the moduli space of Gorenstein stable surfaces $X$ satisfying $K_{X}^2 = 2$ and $\chi(\mathcal{O}_{X}) = 4$, by first establishing an isomorphism with the moduli space of plane octics with…
We classify all normal stable Horikawa surfaces with only $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothable log canonical singularities. Furthermore, we provide a criterion for their global $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothability and describe the boundary…
We classify Gorenstein stable numerical Godeaux surfaces with worse than canonical singularities and compute their fundamental groups.
We study the geography of Gorenstein stable log surfaces and prove two inequalities for their invariants: the stable Noether inequality and the $P_2$-inequality. By constructing examples we show that all invariants are realised except…
We describe some methods to compute fundamental groups, (co)homology, and irregularity of semi-log-canonical surfaces. As an application, we show that there are exactly two irregular Gorenstein stable surfaces with $K^2=1$, both of which…
We construct from a general del Pezzo surface of degree 1 a Gorenstein stable surfaces $X$ with $K_X^2=1$ and $p_g(X)=q(X)=0$. These surfaces are not smoothable but give an open subset of an irreducible component of the moduli space of…
We consider log del Pezzo surfaces coming with a non-trivial torus action. Such a surface is 1/k-log canonical if it allows a resolution of singularities with discrepanies all greater or equal to 1/k-1. We provide a concrete classification…
We classify normal stable surfaces with $K_X^2 = 1$, $p_g = 2$ and $q=0$ with a unique singular point which is a non-canonical T-singularity, thus exhibiting two divisors in the main component and a new irreducible component of the moduli…
In this paper we construct a new family of simply connected minimal complex surfaces of general type with $p_g=1$, $q=0$, and $K^2=3, 4, 5, 6, 8$ using a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothing theory. We also reconstruct minimal complex surfaces…
In this paper we prove that a normal Gorenstein surface dominated by the projective plane P^2 is isomorphic to a quotient P^2/G, where G is a finite group of automorphisms of P^2 (except possibly for one surface V_8'). We can completely…
We construct a new family of simply connected minimal complex surfaces with $p_g=1$, $q=0$, and $K^2=8$ using a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothing theory.
Extending the description of canonical rings from \cite{reid78} we show that every Gorenstein stable Godeaux surface with torsion of order at least $3$ is smoothable.
Consider a normal complex analytic surface singularity. It is called Gorenstein if the canonical line bundle is holomorphically trivial in some punctured neighborhood of the singular point and is called numerically Gorenstein if this line…
We give a classification of all pairs (X,v) of Gorenstein del Pezzo surfaces X and vector fields v which are K-stable in the sense of Berman-Nystrom and therefore are expected to admit a Kahler-Ricci solition. Moreover, we provide some new…
In this paper, we first present the complete list of the singularity types of the Picard number one Gorenstein log del Pezzo surface and the number of the isomorphism classes with the given singularity type. Then we give out a method to…
Recent work ([18], [1]) has produced a complete list of weighted homogeneous surface singularities admitting smoothings whose Milnor fibre has only trivial rational homology (a "rational homology disk"). Though these special singularities…
