Barth and Peters showed that a general complex Enriques surface has exactly 527 isomorphism classes of elliptic fibrations. We show that every Enriques surface has precisely 527 isomorphism classes of elliptic fibrations when counted with…

We classify Enriques surfaces with smooth K3 cover and finite automorphism group in arbitrary positive characteristic. The classification is the same as over the complex numbers except that some types are missing in small characteristics.…

We use vector-bundle techniques in order to compute $\dim W^1_d(C)$ where $C$ is general and smooth in a linear system on an unnodal Enriques surface. We furthermore find new examples of smooth curves on Enriques surfaces with an infinite…

We classify the minimal algebraic surfaces of general type with $p_g=q=1, K^2=8$ and bicanonical map of degree 2. It will turn out that they are isogenous to a product of curves, so that if $S$ is such a surface then there exist two smooth…

We show that most classes of K3 surfaces have only finitely many Enriques quotients. For supersingular K3 surfaces over fields of characteristic $p \geq 3$, we give a formula which generically yields the number of their Enriques quotients.…

We classify all non-extendable 3-sequences of half-fibers on Enriques surfaces. If the characteristic is different from 2, we prove in particular that every Enriques surface admits a 4-sequence, which implies that every Enriques surface is…

We classify all primitive embeddings of the lattice of numerical equivalence classes of divisors of an Enriques surface with the intersection form multiplied by 2 into an even unimodular hyperbolic lattice of rank 26. These embeddings have…

Let $\bar{Y}$ be a normal surface that is the canonical $\mu_2$- or $\alpha_2$-covering of a classical or supersingular Enriques surface in characteristic $2$. We determine all possible configurations of singularities on $\bar{Y}$, and for…

In this paper we discuss the number of Enriques quotients of a fixed K3 surface. We prove the finiteness and unboundedness of the number. We also show an example of Kummer surface of product type where we can successfully classify all the…

This note describes minimal surfaces $S$ of general type satisfying $p_g\geq 5$ and $K^2=2p_g$. For $p_g\geq 8$ the canonical map of such surfaces is generically finite of degree 2 and the bulk of the paper is a complete characterization of…

We give necessary and sufficient criteria for a smooth Enriques surface S in P^r to be scheme-theoretically an intersection of quadrics. Moreover we prove in many cases that, when S contains plane cubic curves, the intersection of the…

We study the groups of automorphisms of rational algebraic surfaces that admit a relatively minimal pencil of curves of arithmetic genus one over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. In particular, we classify such…

We give a list of possibilities for surfaces of general type with $p_g=0$ having an involution $i$ such that the bicanonical map of $S$ is not composed with $i$ and $S/i$ is not rational. Some examples with $K^2=4,...,7$ are constructed as…

Let $S$ be a minimal surface of general type with $p_g = q = 1, K_S^2 = 7$. We prove that the degree of the bicanonical map is 1 or 2. Furthermore, if the degree is 2, we describe $S$ by a double cover.

We will show that there is a smooth complex projective surface, birational to some Enriques surface, such that the automorphism group is discrete but not finitely generated.

We show that every classical Enriques surface containing a smooth rational curve is a Reye congruence.

We show that for every $k\in\mathbb{Z}_+$, with $k\equiv_4 1$, the very general Enriques surface admits rational curves of arithmetic genus $k$ with $\phi$-invariant equal to 2.

A minimal surface of general type with $p_g(S)=0$ satisfies $1\le K^2\le 9$ and it is known that the image of the bicanonical map $\fie$ is a surface for $K_S^2\geq 2$, whilst for $K^2_S\geq 5$, the bicanonical map is always a morphism. In…

This is a brief introduction to the theory of Enriques surfaces over arbitrary algebraically closed fields. Some new results about automorphism groups of Enriques surfaces are also included.

We prove that if the bicanonical map of a minimal surface of general type S with p_{g}=q=1 and K^2=8 is non birational, then it is a double cover onto a rational surface. An application of this theorem is the complete classification of…
