In this paper we study effective, nef and semiample cones of minimal surfaces of general type with $p_g=0.$ We provide examples of minimal surfaces of general type with $p_g=0, 2 \leq K^2 \leq 9$ which are Mori dream spaces. On these…

We show that Shavel type surfaces are fake quadrics of even type which are not Mori dream surfaces, yet there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that the reduction modulo $p$ is a Mori dream surface. We investigate fake quadrics, first…

In this paper we study smooth projective rational surfaces, defined over an algebraically closed field of any characteristic, with pseudo-effective anticanonical divisor. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition in order for any nef…

In this paper, we study the divisor theory of the Simpson moduli space of semistable sheaves of dimension 1 on the projective plane. We prove that these spaces are all Mori dream spaces, and calculate their nef cones. We also study the…

A smooth algebraic surface $S$ is said to be \emph{isogenous to a product of unmixed type} if there exist two smooth curves $C, F$ and a finite group $G$, acting faithfully on both $C$ and $F$ and freely on their product, so that $S=(C…

We investigate nef and movable cones of hypersurfaces in Mori dream spaces. The first result is: Let $Z$ be a smooth Mori dream space of dimension at least four whose extremal contractions are of fiber type of relative dimension at least…

In this paper, we give a criterion to assess the effectiveness and ampleness of divisors on a fake quadric surface $S$, and then we establish a relationship between the cones: \[\mathring{\Eff}(S)=\Amp(S)\subset \SAmp(S)=\Mov(S) \subset…

We show that the pseudo-effective cone of divisors of $\overline{M}_{0,n}$ is not polyhedral for $n\geq 8$ by constructing an extremal non-polyhedral ray of the dual cone of moving curves via maps on meromorphic strata of differentials…

We study the birational geometry of the moduli space of complete $n$-quadrics $X$. We exhibit generators for Eff$(X)$ and Nef$(X)$, the cone of effective divisors and the cone of nef divisors, respectively. As a corollary X is a Mori Dream…

A projective surface S is said to be isogenous to a product if there exist two smooth curves C, F and a finite group G acting freely on C \times F so that S=(C \times F)/G. In this paper we classify all surfaces with p_g=q=1 which are…

We study the birational properties of hypersurfaces in products of projective spaces. In the case of hypersurfaces in P^m x P^n, we describe their nef, movable and effective cones and determine when they are Mori dream spaces. Using these…

We compute the facets of the effective cones of divisors on the blow-up of P^3 in up to five lines in general position. We prove that up to six lines these threefolds are weak Fano and hence Mori Dream Spaces.

In this paper, we suggest a new approach to study minimal surfaces of general type with $p_g=0$ via their Cox rings, especially using the notion of combinatorially minimal Mori dream space introduced by Hausen. First, we study general…

We show that nef cycle classes on smooth complete spherical varieties are effective, and the products of nef cycle classes are also nef. Let X be a smooth projective spherical variety such that its effective cycle classes of codimension k…

We prove that if $m \ge n-3$ then every $S_m$-invariant F-nef divisor on the moduli space of stable $n$-pointed curves of genus zero is linearly equivalent to an effective combination of boundary divisors. As an application, we determine…

A fake quadric is a smooth projective surface that has the same rational cohomology as a smooth quadric surface but is not biholomorphic to one. We provide an explicit classification of all irreducible fake quadrics according to the…

We construct exceptional sequences of line bundles of maximal length on a family of surfaces isogenous to a higher product of unmixed type with $p_g=q=0$.

I consider the class of surfaces $X$ over algebraically closed fields with numerical invariants given in the title. In characteristic zero, this class contains fake projective planes which were introduced by David Mumford. I prove that in…

The aim of this paper is to determine minimal models of the semi-isogenous mixed surfaces with $\chi=1$ and $K^2>0$ constructed by Cancian and Frapporti. In order to do this, we further develop the idea of orbit divisors introduced by…

The main goal of this paper is to study varieties with the best possible Mori theoretic properties (measured by the existence of a certain decomposition of the cone of effective divisors). We call such a variety a Mori Dream Space. There…
