We give a proof of the Morrison-Kawamata cone conjecture for Enriques surfaces independent of their characteristic. It is based on the analysis of certain generically finite morphisms of degree two.
We calculate the automorphism group of certain Enriques surfaces. The Enriques surfaces that we investigate include very general $n$-nodal Enriques surfaces and very general cuspidal Enriques surfaces. We also describe the action of the…
In this work we define the Ribaucour-type surfaces (in short, RT-surfaces). These surfaces satisfy a relationship similar to the Ribaucour surfaces that are related to the \'Elie Cartan problem. This class furnishes what seems to be the…
We establish a conjecture of Mumford characterizing rationally connected complex projective manifolds in several cases.
We construct an Enriques surface X over Q with empty \'etale-Brauer set (and hence no rational points) for which there is no algebraic Brauer-Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle. In addition, if there is a transcendental obstruction on…
We study K3 surfaces over non-closed fields and relate the notion of derived equivalence to arithmetic problems.
This article wants to show two things: first, that certain problems in Diophantus' Arithmetica lead to equations defining del Pezzo surfaces or other rational surfaces, while certain others lead to K3 surfaces; second, that Diophantus' own…
We formulate a very general conjecture relating the analytical invariants of a normal surface singularity to the Seiberg-Witten invariants of its link provided that the link is a rational homology sphere. As supporting evidence, we…
Enriques manifolds are non--simply connected manifolds whose universal cover is irreducible holomorphic symplectic, and as such they are natural generalizations of Enriques surfaces. The goal of this note is to prove the Morrison--Kawamata…
We give a 1-dimensional family of classical and supersingular Enriques surfaces in characteristic 2 covered by the supersingular K3 surface with Artin invariant 1. Moreover we show that there exist 30 nonsingular rational curves and ten…
We study the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of tangent cones of Schubert varieties. Conjectures about this statistic are presented; these are proved for the covexillary case. This builds on work of L. Li and the author on these tangent…
This note contains preliminary calculation of topological types or real Enriques surfaces. We realize 59 topological types of real Enriques surfaces (Theorem 6) and show that all other topological types belong to the list of 21 topological…
In this paper, we study the critical case of the Allard regularity theorem. Combining with Reifenberg's topological disk theorem, we get a critical Allard-Reifenberg type regularity theorem. As a main result, we get the topological…
Starting from an Enriques surface over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$ considered by Lafon, we give the first examples of smooth projective weakly special threefolds which fibre over the projective line in Enriques surfaces (resp. K3 surfaces) with nowhere…
We prove that two Enriques surfaces defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $2$ are isomorphic if their Kuznetsov components are equivalent. This improves and completes our previous result joint with Nuer…
We construct a family of Fano fourfolds with the derived category of coherent sheaves of a general Enriques surface as semiorthogonal component. This improves a result of Kuznetsov, lowering the Fano dimension of a general Enriques surface…
We study arithmetic properties of derived equivalent K3 surfaces over the field of Laurent power series, using the equivariant geometry of K3 surfaces with cyclic groups actions.
We survey some results on real rational surfaces focused on their topology and their birational geometry.
The following problem is treated: Characterizing the tangent cone and the equimultiple locus of a Puiseux surface (that is, an algebroid embedded surface admitting an equation whose roots are Puiseux power series), using a set of exponents…
We refine Cossec and Dolgachev's classification of extra-special Enriques surfaces, providing a complete and concise proof.
