In this note we show that if the automorphism group of a normal affine surface $S$ is isomorphic to the automorphism group of a Danielewski surface, then $S$ is isomorphic to a Danielewski surface.
We study a class of normal affine surfaces with additive group actions which contains in particular the Danielewski surfaces in $\ba^{3}$ given by the equations $x^{n}z=P(y)$, where $P$ is a nonconstant polynomial with simple roots. We call…
In this paper we study exponential maps ($\mathbb{G}_a$-actions) on the family of affine two dimensional surfaces of the form $f(x)y=\phi(x,z)$ over arbitrary fields, describe the Makar-Limanov invariant and Derksen invariant of these…
The Danielewski hypersurfaces are the hypersurfaces $X_{Q,n}$ in $\mathbb{C}^3$ defined by an equation of the form $x^ny=Q(x,z)$ where $n\geq1$ and $Q(x,z)$ is a polynomial such that $Q(0,z)$ is of degree at least two. They were studied by…
We construct explicit embeddings of generalized Danielewski surfaves in affine spaces. The equations defining these embeddings are obtained from the 2x2 minors of a matrix attached to a labelled rooted tree. Then we describe more precisely…
On del Pezzo surfaces, we study effective ample $\mathbb{R}$-divisors such that the complements of their supports are isomorphic to $\mathbb{A}^1$-bundles over smooth affine curves.
We study a two-dimensional family of affine surfaces which are counter-examples to the Cancellation Problem. We describe the Makar-Limanov invariant of these surfaces, determine their isomorphism classes and characterize the automorphisms…
In the present work we consider differential rings of the form $(\mathcal B,D)$ where $\mathcal B$ is a Danielewski surface and $D$ is a locally nilpotent derivation on $\mathcal B$. Influenced by several recent works, we describe the…
We give a general structure theorem for affine A 1-fibrations on smooth quasi-projective surfaces. As an application, we show that every smooth A 1-fibered affine surface non-isomorphic to the total space of a line bundle over a smooth…
The cancellation problem asks if two complex algebraic varieties X and Y of the same dimension such that X\times\mathbb{C} and Y\times\mathbb{C} are isomorphic are isomorphic. Iitaka and Fujita established that the answer is positive for a…
The main result of the present paper is the proof of the Strange Duality for elliptic surfaces -- a duality between global sections of determinantal line bundles on moduli spaces of stable sheaves on a fixed elliptic surface. For this, we…
We construct families of smooth affine surfaces with pairwise non isomorphic A 1-cylinders but whose A 2-cylinders are all isomorphic. These arise as complements of cuspidal hyperplane sections of smooth projective cubic surfaces.
Let $X$ and $X'$ be affine algebraic varieties over a field $\mathbb{k}$. The celebrated Zariski Cancellation Problem asks as to when the existence of an isomorphism $X\times\mathbb{A}^n\cong X'\times\mathbb{A}^n$ implies $X\cong X'$. In…
In 2007, Dubouloz introduced Danielewski varieties. Such varieties generalize Danielewski surfaces and provide counterexamples to generalized Zariski cancellation problem in arbitrary dimension. In the present work we describe the…
We give the classification of all complete algebraic vector fields on Danielewski surfaces (smooth surfaces given by $xy=p(z)$). We use the fact that for each such vector field there exists a certain fibration that is preserved under its…
L. Makar-Limanov computed the automorphisms groups of surfaces in $\mathbb{C}^{3}$ defined by the equations $x^{n}z-P(y)=0$, where $n\geq1$ and $P(y)$ is a nonzero polynomial. Similar results have been obtained by A. Crachiola for surfaces…
The author has been interested in regions surrounded by cylinders of real algebraic hypersurfaces and their shapes and polynomials associated to them. Here, we formulate and investigate natural decompositions into such cylinders of real…
Every $\mathbb{A}^{1}-$bundle over the complex affine plane punctured at the origin, is trivial in the differentiable category but there are infinitely many distinct isomorphy classes of algebraic bundles. Isomorphy types of total spaces of…
We study Le Potier's strange duality conjecture for moduli spaces of sheaves over generic abelian surfaces. We prove the isomorphism for abelian surfaces which are products of elliptic curves, when the moduli spaces consist of sheaves of…
Affine rotation surfaces are a generalization of the well-known surfaces of revolution. Affine rotation surfaces arise naturally within the framework of affine differential geometry, a field started by Blaschke in the first decades of the…
