Given a 2-manifold, a fundamental question to ask is which groups can be realized as the isometry group of a Riemannan metric of constant curvature on the manifold. In this paper, we give a nearly complete classification of such groups for…

A fake quadric is a smooth minimal surface of general type with the same invariants as the quadric in P^3, i.e. K^2=2c_2=8 and q=p_g=0. We study here quaternionic fake quadrics i.e. fake quadrics constructed arithmetically by using some…

Kreck and Schafer produced the first examples of stably diffeomorphic closed smooth 4-manifolds which are not homotopy equivalent. They were constructed by applying the doubling construction to 2-complexes over certain finite abelian groups…

Macbeath gave a formula for the number of fixed points for each non-identity element of a cyclic group of automorphisms of a compact Riemann surface in terms of the universal covering transformation group of the cyclic group. We observe…

In 2006 Masuda and Suh asked if two compact non-singular toric varieties having isomorphic cohomology rings are homeomorphic. In the first part of this paper we discuss this question for topological generalizations of toric varieties,…

Bergman has given the following abstract characterisation of the inner automorphisms of a group $G$: they are exactly those automorphisms of $G$ which can be extended functorially along any homomorphism $G \rightarrow H$ to an automorphism…

In this paper our main result states that there exist exactly three combinatorially distinct centrally-symmetric 12-vertex-triangulations of the product of two 2-spheres with a cyclic symmetry. We also compute the automorphism groups of the…

The group of 2-by-2 matrices with integer entries and determinant $\pm > 1$ can be identified either with the group of outer automorphisms of a rank two free group or with the group of isotopy classes of homeomorphisms of a 2-dimensional…

A bicirculant is a regular graph that admits an automorphism having two vertex-orbits of the same size. A bicirculant can be described as follows. Given an integer $m \ge 1$ and sets $R, S, T \subseteq \mathbb Z_m$ such that $R=-R$, $T=-T$,…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic 0, let $C/k$ be a uniquely trigonal genus 4 curve, and let $P \in C(k)$ be a simply ramified point of the uniquely trigonal morphism. We construct an assignment of an orbit of an algebraic group of type…

We construct for any smooth projective curve of genus $q\ge 2$ with a fixed point free automorphism a nonisotrivial family of curves. Moreover we study the space of modular curves and that of parameters.

We study autoequivalences of the derived category of coherent sheaves of a variety arising from a variation of GIT quotient. We show that these automorphisms are spherical twists, and describe how they result from mutations of…

We classify spherical quadrilaterals up to isometry in the case when one inner angle is a multiple of pi while the other three are not. This is equivalent to classification of Heun's equations with real parameters and one apparent…

Let $\Gamma$ be a $G$-symmetric graph with vertex set $V$. We suppose that $V$ admits a $G$-partition $\mathcal{B} = \{ B_0, ... , B_b \}$, with parts of size $v$, and that the quotient graph induced on $\mathcal B$ is a complete graph of…

We study the behaviour on some nodal hyperplanes of the isomorphism, described in a paper of 2019 by Boissi\`ere, Camere and Sarti, between the moduli space of smooth cubic threefolds and the moduli space of hyperk\"ahler fourfolds of…

We study mapping class group orbits of homotopy and isotopy classes of curves with self-intersections. We exhibit the asymptotics of the number of such orbits of curves with a bounded number of self-intersections, as the complexity of the…

Let $C$ be an irreducible projective plane curve in the complex projective space ${\mathbb{P}}^2$. The classification of such curves, up to the action of the automorphism group $PGL(3,{\mathbb{C}})$ on ${\mathbb{P}}^2$, is a very difficult…

We classify all possible automorphism groups of smooth cubic surfaces over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. As an intermediate step we also classify automorphism groups of quartic del Pezzo surfaces. We show that…

Quaternionic tori are defined as quotients of the skew field $\mathbb{H}$ of quaternions by rank-4 lattices. Using slice regular functions, these tori are endowed with natural structures of quaternionic manifolds (in fact quaternionic…

A circulant (di)graph is a (di)graph on n vertices that admits a cyclic automorphism of order n. This paper provides a survey of the work that has been done on finding the automorphism groups of circulant (di)graphs, including the…
