Recently de Thanhoffer de V\"olcsey and Van den Bergh classified the Euler forms on a free abelian group of rank 4 having the properties of the Euler form of a smooth projective surface. There are two types of solutions: one corresponding…

We classify the minimal surfaces of general type with $K^2 \leq 4\chi-8$ whose canonical map is composed with a pencil, up to a finite number of families. More precisely we prove that there is exactly one irreducible family for each value…

The geometric and algebraic theory of monomial ideals and multigraded modules is initiated over real-exponent polynomial rings and, more generally, monoid algebras for real polyhedral cones. The main results include the generalization of…

The zeros of classical Eisenstein series satisfy many intriguing properties. Work of F. Rankin and Swinnerton-Dyer pinpoints their location to a certain arc of the fundamental domain, and recent work by Nozaki explores their interlacing…

Given a smooth del Pezzo surface $X_d \subseteq \mathbb{P}^{d}$ of degree $d,$ we show that a smooth irreducible curve $C$ on $X_d$ represents the first Chern class of an Ulrich bundle on $X_d$ if and only if its kernel bundle $M_C$ admits…

We classify the automorphism groups of del Pezzo surfaces of degrees one and two over an algebraically closed field of characteristic two. This finishes the classification of automorphism groups of del Pezzo surfaces in all characteristics.

Let X be a K3 surface with an involution g which has non-empty fixed locus X^g and acts non-trivially on a non-zero holomorphic 2-form. We shall construct all such pairs (X, g) in a canonical way, from some better known double coverings of…

We study minimal Lorentz surfaces in the pseudo-Euclidean 4-space with neutral metric whose first normal space is two-dimensional and whose Gauss curvature $K$ and normal curvature $\varkappa$ satisfy the inequality $K^2-\varkappa^2 >0$.…

Recently, de Thanhoffer de Volcsey and Van den Bergh showed that Grothendieck groups of "noncommutative Del Pezzo surfaces" with an exceptional sequence of length 4 are isomorphic to one of three types, the third one not coming from a…

We prove that the first gap of $\mathbb R$-complementary thresholds of surfaces is $\frac{1}{13}$. More precisely, the largest $\mathbb R$-complementary threshold for surfaces that is strictly less than $1$ is $\frac{12}{13}$. This result…

In Euclidean $3$-space, it is well known that the Sine-Gordon equation was considered in the nineteenth century in the course of investigations of surfaces of constant Gaussian curvature $K=-1$. Such a surface can be constructed from a…

We construct new indecomposable elements in the higher Chow group CH2(A,1) of a principally polarized Abelian surface over a non Archimedean local field, which generalize an element constructed by Collino. These elements are constructed…

The exceptional log Del Pezzo surfaces with delta=1 are classified.

A del Pezzo surface of degree one defined over the rationals has 240 exceptional curves. These curves are permuted by the action of the absolute Galois group. We show how a solution to the classical inverse Galois problem for a subgroup of…

The classical McKay correspondence for finite subgroups $G$ of $\SL(2,\C)$ gives a bijection between isomorphism classes of nontrivial irreducible representations of $G$ and irreducible components of the exceptional divisor in the minimal…

We give characterizations of a finite group $G$ acting symplectically on a rational surface ($\mathbb{C}P^2$ blown up at two or more points). In particular, we obtain a symplectic version of the dichotomy of $G$-conic bundles versus $G$-del…

We construct from a general del Pezzo surface of degree 1 a Gorenstein stable surfaces $X$ with $K_X^2=1$ and $p_g(X)=q(X)=0$. These surfaces are not smoothable but give an open subset of an irreducible component of the moduli space of…

We show the properness of the moduli stack of stable surfaces over $\mathbb{Z}[1/30]$, assuming the locally-stable reduction conjecture for stable surfaces. This relies on a local Kawamata--Viehweg vanishing theorem for for 3-dimensional…

Among geometrically rational surfaces, del Pezzo surfaces of degree two over a field k containing at least one point are arguably the simplest that are not known to be unirational over k. Looking for k-rational curves on these surfaces, we…

We define the counting of holomorphic cylinders in log Calabi-Yau surfaces. Although we start with a complex log Calabi-Yau surface, the counting is achieved by applying methods from non-archimedean geometry. This gives rise to new…
