We prove the "all-the-heights'' version of the Batyrev--Manin--Peyre conjecture for split quintic del Pezzo surfaces, both for counting rational points over global function fields in positive characteristic and for the motivic version over…

We show that a del Pezzo fibration $\pi$ : V $\rightarrow$ W of degre d contains a vertical open cylinder, that is, an open subset whose intersection with the generic fiber of $\pi$ is isomorphic to $Z\times\mathbb{A}_{K}^{1}$ for some…

Manin's conjecture for the asymptotic behavior of the number of rational points of bounded height on del Pezzo surfaces can be approached through universal torsors. We prove several auxiliary results for the estimation of the number of…

Using Fedder's criterion, we classify all non-$F$-split del Pezzo surfaces of degree $1$. We give a necessary and sufficient criterion for the $F$-splitting of such del Pezzo surfaces in terms of their anti-canonical system.

We establish the enumerativity of (original and modified) Welschinger invariants for every real divisor on any real algebraic Del Pezzo surface and give an algebro-geometric proof of the invariance of that count both up to variation of the…

We describe the construction of the slice fibration of a given one.

We study del Pezzo varieties, higher-dimensional analogues of del Pezzo surfaces. In particular, we introduce ADE classification of del Pezzo varieties, show that in type A the dimension of non-conical del Pezzo varieties is bounded by $12…

By Jahnke-Peternell-Radloff and Takeuchi, almost Fano threefolds with del Pezzo fibrations were classified. Among them, there exists 10 classes such that the existence of members of these was not proved. In this paper, we construct such…

We prove Manin's conjecture for a del Pezzo surface of degree six which has one singularity of type $\mathbf{A}_2$. Moreover, we achieve a meromorphic continuation and explicit expression of the associated height zeta function.

We study the structure of the spectrum of the algebra of uniformly continuous holomorphic functions on the unit ball of $\ell_p$. Our main focus is the relationship between \emph{Gleason parts} and \emph{fibers}. For every $z \in…

We classify smooth del Pezzo surfaces whose alpha-invariant of Tian is bigger than one.

In this paper we extend to the singular setting the theory of Fano foliations developed in our previous paper. A Q-Fano foliation on a complex projective variety X is a foliation F whose anti-canonical class is an ample Q-Cartier divisor.…

For a cubic hypersurface $X$, work of Galkin--Shinder and Voisin shows the existence of a birational map relating the Hilbert scheme of two points $X^{[2]}$ with a certain projective bundle over $X$. Belmans--Fu--Raedschelders show that…

In this paper we classify low degree del Pezzo orbifolds with irreducible boundaries. In order to achieve desired boundaries, we classify low degree curves on low degree del Pezzo surfaces. The notion of Campana orbifolds was introduced by…

A conjecture of Manin predicts the asymptotic distribution of rational points of bounded height on Fano varieties. In this paper we use conic bundles to obtain correct lower bounds or a wide class of surfaces over number fields for which…

Let Q -> B be a quadric fibration and T -> B a family of sextic du Val del Pezzo surfaces. Making use of the recent theory of noncommutative mixed motives, we establish a precise relation between the Schur-finiteness conjecture for Q, resp.…

The main result of the paper is a boundedness for $n$-complements on algebraic surfaces. In addition, applications of this theorem to a classification of log Del Pezzo surfaces and of birational contractions for 3-folds are formulated.

We study Mori fiber spaces over a two-dimensional base which satisfy the semistability assumption. As an application of our technique we give a new proof of the existence of semistable 3-fold flips.

We investigate Manin's conjecture for del Pezzo surfaces of degree five with a conic bundle structure, proving matching upper and lower bounds, and the full conjecture in the Galois general case.

This article improves certain results of Dino Lorenzini concerning the groups of connected components of special fibres of N\'eron models of abelian varieties. Lorenzini has shown the existence of a four step filtration on the prime-to-$p$…
