In this paper we give the topological classification of real primary Kodaira surfaces and we describe in detail the structure of the corresponding moduli space. One of the main tools is the orbifold fundamental group of a real variety. Our…

In classical differential geometry, a central question has been whether abstract surfaces with given geometric features can be realized as surfaces in Euclidean space. Inspired by the rich theory of embedded triply periodic minimal…

In this paper we classify all singular irreducible symplectic surfaces, i.e., compact, connected complex surfaces with canonical singularities that have a holomorphic symplectic form $\sigma$ on the smooth locus, and for which every finite…

Topologically, a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g$ is a $g$-holed torus (a sphere with $g$ handles). This paper is an introduction to the theory of compact Riemann surfaces and algebraic curves. It presents the basic ideas and…

We give an algebraic description of the structure of the analytic universal cover of a complex abelian variety which suffices to determine the structure up to isomorphism. More generally, we classify the models of theories of "universal…

We shall give, in an optimal form, a sufficient numerical condition for the finiteness of the fundamental group of the smooth locus of a normal K3 surface. We shall moreover prove that, if the normal K3 surface is elliptic and the above…

Consider a smooth complex surface $X$ which is a double cover of the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$ branched along a smooth curve of degree $2s$. In this article, we study the geometric conditions which are equivalent to the existence of…

Consider a compact surface $\mathscr{R}$ with distinguished points $z_1,\ldots,z_n$ and conformal maps $f_k$ from the unit disk into non-overlapping quasidisks on $\mathscr{R}$ taking $0$ to $z_k$. Let $\Sigma$ be the Riemann surface…

We study Bott-Chern cohomology on compact complex non-K\"ahler surfaces. In particular, we compute such a cohomology for compact complex surfaces in class $\text{VII}$ and for compact complex surfaces diffeomorphic to solvmanifolds.

We will show that there is a smooth complex projective surface, birational to some Enriques surface, such that the automorphism group is discrete but not finitely generated.

We conjecture and prove closed-form index expressions for the cohomology dimensions of line bundles on del Pezzo and Hirzebruch surfaces. Further, for all compact toric surfaces we provide a simple algorithm which allows expression of any…

We use rewriting systems to spell out cup-products in the (twisted) cohomology groups of a product of surface groups. This allows us to detect a non-trivial obstruction bounding from below the effective topological complexity of an…

Stable compact minimal submanifolds of the product of a sphere and any Riemannian manifold are classified whenever the dimension of the sphere is at least three. The complete classification of the stable compact minimal submanifolds of the…

We introduce and analyze a new geometric structure on topological surfaces generalizing the complex structure. To define this so called higher complex structure we use the punctual Hilbert scheme of the plane. The moduli space of higher…

We present a 2-dimensional Peano continuum $\mathbb{T}\subseteq \mathbb{R}^3$ with the following properties: (1) There is a universal covering projection $q:\overline{\mathbb{T}}\rightarrow \mathbb{T}$ with uncountable fundamental group…

We give construction of singular K3 surfaces with discriminant 3 and 4 as double coverings over the projective plane. Focusing on the similarities in their branching loci, we can generalize this construction, and obtain a three dimensional…

We present a variety of geometrical and combinatorial tools that are used in the study of geometric structures on surfaces: volume, contact, symplectic, complex and almost complex structures. We start with a series of local rigidity results…

The Kakimizu complex is usually defined in the context of knots, where it is known to be quasi-Euclidean. We here generalize the definition of the Kakimizu complex to surfaces and 3-manifolds (with or without boundary). Interestingly, in…

We construct some complex surfaces of general type with maximal Picard number. These examples arise as fibrations of genus two curves over quaternionic Shimura curves.

We introduce C-Algebras of compact Riemann surfaces $\Sigma$ as non-commutative analogues of the Poisson algebra of smooth functions on $\Sigma$. Representations of these algebras give rise to sequences of matrix-algebras for which…
