Given a degree one del Pezzo surface with canonical singularities, the linear series generated by twice the anti-canonical divisor exhibits the surface as the double cover of the quadric cone branched along a sextic curve. It is natural to…

Let $\Sigma_{g,n}$ be an orientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures. We study actions of the mapping class group of $\Sigma_{g,n}$ via Hodge-theoretic and arithmetic techniques. We show that if $$\rho: \pi_1(\Sigma_{g,n})\to…

In this article, we obtain an upper bound for the number of integral points on the del Pezzo surfaces of degree two.

In this paper, we classified the surfaces whose canonical maps are abelian covers over $\mathbb{P}^2$. Moveover, we construct a new Campedelli surface with fundamental group $\mathbb{Z}_2^{\oplus 3}$ and give defining equations for…

A variety X with an action of a finite group G is said to be G-unirational if there is a G-equivariant dominant rational map V -> X where V is a faithful linear representation of G. This generalizes the usual notion of unirationality. We…

We investigate the characteristic numbers of Del Pezzo surfaces using degenerations.

Invariant minimal surfaces in the real special linear group of degree 2 with canonical Riemannian and Lorentzian metrics are studied. Constant mean curvature surfaces with vertically harmonic Gau{\ss} map are classified.

Let $n$ be a positive integer, $q$ be a prime power, and $V$ be a vector space of dimension $n$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let $G := V \rtimes G_0$, where $G_0$ is an irreducible subgroup of ${\rm GL}(V)$ which is maximal by inclusion with…

Mapping class groups of locally finite graphs are the analogue of those of infinite-type surfaces, and serve as a "big" version of $\text{Out}(F_n)$. In this paper, we investigate which of these mapping class groups have a dense conjugacy…

Let $\Gamma\in \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ be a finite subgroup. We introduce a class of projective noncommutative surfaces $\mathbb{P}^2_I$, indexed by a set of irreducible $\Gamma$-representations. Extending the action of $\Gamma$ from…

The moduli space $\mathscr{M}$ of surfaces of general type with $p_g=q=1, K^2=g=3$ (where $g$ is the genus of the Albanese fibration) was constructed by Catanese and Ciliberto in \cite{CaCi93}. In this paper we characterize the subvariety…

Let R be a Dedekind scheme, $\nu$ its generic point, X and V del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1 over R that are Gorenstein Mori fiber spaces (as 3-folds germs over the ground field). We study birational maps $\phi:X\dasharrow V$ over R which…

We investigate representations of mapping class groups of surfaces that arise from the untwisted Drinfeld double of a finite group G, focusing on surfaces without marked points or with one marked point. We obtain concrete descriptions of…

Let $\Gamma_g$ be the fundamental group of a closed orientable surface of genus $g\geqslant 2$. The outer automorphism group $\mathrm{Out}(\Gamma_g)$ naturally acts on the character variety $\mathcal{X}(\Gamma_g,G)$ for any Lie group $G$.…

Let $\Gamma$ be a convex co-compact discrete group of isometries of the hyperbolic plane $\mathbb{H}^2$, and $X=\Gamma\backslash \mathbb{H}^2$ the associated surface. In this paper we investigate the behaviour of resonances of the Laplacian…

Each graph and choice of a commutative ring gives rise to an associated graphical group. In this article, we introduce and investigate graph polynomials that enumerate conjugacy classes of graphical groups over finite fields according to…

For an irreducible variety $X$ over a field $k$, the degree of irrationality $\operatorname{irr}_k X$ is the minimal degree of a dominant rational map $X \dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}_k^{\operatorname{\dim} X}$. When $X$ is a curve, this is…

There are several variations of the definition of log del Pezzo pairs in the literature. We define their suitable smooth models, and we show that they are the same. In particular, we obtain a characterization of smooth log del Pezzo pairs…

We study points and 0-cycles on del Pezzo surfaces defined over a field K of characteristic 0, with emphasis on cubic surfaces. We prove that a cubic surface that admits a point defined over a field extension of K of degree coprime to 3…

Surfaces of general type with geometric genus $p_g=0$, which can be given as Galois covering of the projective plane branched over an arrangement of lines with Galois group $G=(\mathbb Z/q\mathbb Z)^k$, where $k\geq 2$ and $q$ is a prime…
