Given an elliptic surface over a number field, we study the collection of fibres whose Mordell-Weil rank is greater than the generic rank. Under suitable assumptions, we show that this collection is not thin. Our results apply to quadratic…
In this paper, we give an effective and efficient algorithm which on input takes non-zero integers $A$ and $B$ and on output produces the generators of the Mordell-Weil group of the elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$ given by an equation…
We investigate a geometric criterion for a smooth curve $C$ of genus $14$ and degree $18$ to be described as the zero locus of sections in an Ulrich bundle of rank $3$ on a del Pezzo threefold $V_5 \subset \mathbb{P}^6$. The main challenge…
We give a new and intrinsic proof of the transitivity of the braid group action on the set of full exceptional sequences of coherent sheaves on a weighted projective line. We do not use here the corresponding result of Crawley-Boevey for…
In this paper, using the correspondence of gentle algebras and dissections of marked surfaces, we study full exceptional sequences in the perfect derived category $\mathsf{K^b(A)}$ of a gentle algebra $\mathsf{A}$. We show that full…
We obtain a formula for the number of genus one curves with a variable complex structure of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This is done using Getzler's…

We provide effective algorithms for solving block tridiagonal block Toeplitz systems with $m\times m$ quasiseparable blocks, as well as quadratic matrix equations with $m\times m$ quasiseparable coefficients, based on cyclic reduction and…
The hypersurface in a 3-dimensional vector space with an isolated quasi-homogeneous elliptic singularity of type E_r,r=6,7,8, has a natural Poisson structure. We show that the family of del Pezzo surfaces of the corresponding type E_r…
We present a geometric realization for all mutation classes of quivers of rank $3$ with real weights. This realization is via linear reflection groups for acyclic mutation classes and via groups generated by $\pi$-rotations for the cyclic…
The blow-up of the anticanonical base point on a del Pezzo surface $S$ of degree 1 gives rise to a rational elliptic surface $\mathscr{E}$ with only irreducible fibers. The sections of minimal height of $\mathscr{E}$ are in correspondence…

We investigate torsion exceptional sheaves on a weak del Pezzo surface of degree greater than two whose anticanonical model has at most $A_n$-singularities. We show that every torsion exceptional sheaf can be obtained from a line bundle on…
The maximum cut problem for a quintic del Pezzo surface ${\rm Bl}_{4}(\mathbb{P}^2)$ asks: Among all partitions of the 10 exceptional curves into two disjoint sets, what is the largest possible number of pairwise intersections? In this…
We work out properties of smooth projective varieties over a (not necessarily algebraically closed) field that admit collections of objects in the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves that are either full exceptional, or numerically…
An analysis of the Markov tree is presented. Markov triplets, {x,R,z}, are the positive integer solutions to the Diophantine equation x2 + R2 + z2 = 3xRz. Inspired by patterns of the Fibonacci and Pell triplets in Region 1 and Region 2 of…
We prove that the Galois action on the exceptional curves on the generic del Pezzo surface of degree $d$ is maximal for all degrees $d$ and over any field $k$. As a consequence of the case $d=3$, we deduce that over $\mathbb{F}_q(u)$, 100%…

We prove that all geometric helices in the derived category of coherent sheaves on a del Pezzo surface are related by a sequence of elementary operations: rotation, shifting, orthogonal reordering, tensoring by a line bundle, and tilting.…
Supersymmetric D-branes supported on the complex two-dimensional base $S$ of the local Calabi-Yau threefold $K_S$ are described by semi-stable coherent sheaves on $S$. Under suitable conditions, the BPS indices counting these objects (known…
