We classify the number of $k$-rational lines and conic fibrations on del Pezzo surfaces over a field $k$ in terms of relatively minimal surfaces and establish rational curve analogues of the inverse Galois problem for del Pezzo surfaces. We…
The surfaces considered are real, rational and have a unique smooth real $(-2)$-curve. Their canonical class $K$ is strictly negative on any other irreducible curve in the surface and $K^2>0$. For surfaces satisfying these assumptions, we…
We classify del Pezzo surfaces with Du Val singularities that have infinite automorphism groups, and describe the connected components of their automorphisms groups.
We find normal forms for del Pezzo surfaces of degree $2$ over algebraically closed fields of characteristic $2$. For each normal form, we describe the structure of the group of automorphisms of the surface. In particular, we classify all…
We classify del Pezzo surfaces with Picard number is equal to one and with four log terminal singular points.
In this paper, we found non-symplectic index of all supersingular K3 surfaces defined over a field of characteristic p>3.
We completely determine the existence of anticanonical polar cylinders in quasi-smooth log del Pezzo surfaces of index one.
Let $S$ be a del Pezzo surface with at worst Du Val singularities of degree $2$ such that $S$ admits an $(-K_S)$-polar cylinder. In this article, we construct an $H$-polar cylinder for any ample $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $H$ on $S$.
We address weak approximation for certain del Pezzo surfaces defined over the function field of a curve. We study the rational connectivity of the smooth locus of degree two del Pezzo surfaces with two A1 singularities in order to prove…
We study slope stability of smooth surfaces and its connection with exceptional divisors. We show that a surface containing an exceptional divisor with arithmetic genus at least two is slope unstable for some polarisation. In the converse…
Previous work of the authors showed that every quartic del Pezzo surface over a number field has index dividing $2$ (i.e., has a closed point of degree $2$ modulo $4$),, and asked whether such surfaces always have a closed point of degree…
We classify all the del Pezzo surfaces with $\frac{1}{3}(1,1)$- and $\frac{1}{4}(1,1)$-singularities having no floating $(-1)$-curves into 39 types.
In this paper we study the problem of existence of orbifold Kaehler-Einstein metrics on del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1 with Du Val singular points. Moreover we compute global log canonical thresholds of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1 with…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. Let $X$ be a normal projective surface over $k$ with canonical singularities whose anti-canonical divisor is nef and big. We prove that $X$ is globally $F$-regular except for…
Let $K$ be a number field and $S$ a finite set of primes of $K$. Scholl proved that there are only finitely many $K$-isomorphism classes of del Pezzo surfaces of any degree $1 \le d \le 9$ over $K$ with good reduction away from $S$. Let…
We show that closed hypersurfaces in Euclidean space with nonnegative scalar curvature are weakly mean convex. In contrast, the statement is no longer true if the scalar curvature is replaced by the k-th mean curvature, for k greater than…
We compute the coregularity of del Pezzo surfaces with du Val singularities. To this aim, we study the relation between del Pezzo surfaces of degree $1$ and elliptic fibrations. It turns out that del Pezzo surfaces with positive…
In this article, we compute $\delta$-invariants of Du Val del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2.
We introduce an inductive argument for proving birational superrigidity and K-stability of singular Fano complete intersections of index one, using the same types of information from lower dimensions. In particular, we prove that a…
We prove that a normal hyperplane section of the Segre variety $\Sigma_{m, n}$ is K-unstable with respect to any polarization if $m\neq n$ or it is not smooth.
