In this article, we study the divisor classes of del Pezzo surfaces, which are written as the sum of distinct lines with fixed intersection according to the inscribed simplexes and crosspolytopes in Gosset polytopes. We introduce the…

All families of sextic surfaces with the maximal number of isolated triple points are found.

We study K3 surfaces of degree 6 containing two sets of 12 skew lines such that each line from a set intersects exactly six lines from the other set. These surfaces arise as hyperplane sections of the cubic line complex associated with the…

Here we present a partial generalization to higher order osculating spaces of the classical Lemma of Terracini on ordinary tangent spaces. As an application, we investigate the secant varieties to the osculating varieties to the Veronese…

We obtain a formula for the number of genus two curves with a fixed 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 by extending the…

In this paper we prove that, over a Hilbertian ground field, surfaces with two conic fibrations whose fibres have non-zero intersection product have the Hilbert property. We then give an application of this result, namely the verification…

A birational map from a projective space onto a not too much singular projective variety with a single irreducible non-singular base locus scheme (special birational transformation) is a rare enough phenomenon to allow meaningful and…

Surfaces of general type with geometric genus $p_g=0$, which can be given as Galois covering of the projective plane branched over an arrangement of lines with Galois group $G=(\mathbb Z/q\mathbb Z)^k$, where $k\geq 2$ and $q$ is a prime…

We introduce and study the notion of $G$-coregularity of algebraic varieties endowed with an action of a finite group $G$. We compute $G$-coregularity of smooth del Pezzo surfaces of degree at least 6, and give a characterization of groups…

Let $X$ be a surface of general type with maximal Albanese dimension: if $K_X^2<\frac{9}{2}\chi(\mathcal{O}_X)$, one has $K_X^2\geq 4\chi(\mathcal{O}_X)+4(q-2)$. We give a complete classification of surfaces for which equality holds for…

We consider the set of forms of a toric variety over an arbitrary field: those varieties which become isomorphic to a toric variety after base field extension. In contrast to most previous work, we also consider arbitrary isomorphisms…

The Manin-Peyre conjecture is established for a split singular quintic del Pezzo surface with singularity type $\mathbf{A}_2$ and two split singular quartic del Pezzo surfaces with singularity types $\mathbf{A}_3+\mathbf{A}_1$ and…

Log del Pezzo surfaces play the role of the opposite of surfaces of general type. We will completely classify all the log del Pezzo surfaces of rank 2 and Cartier index 3 with a unique singularity.

In this paper, we prove that a pair of the minimal resolution of a del Pezzo surface with rational double points whose general anti-canonical member is smooth and its exceptional divisor lifts to the Witt ring. We also classify a del Pezzo…

For $d$ ranging from 2 to 6, we prove that the web by conics naturally defined on any smooth del Pezzo surface of degree $d$ carries an interesting functional identity whose components all are a certain antisymmetric hyperlogarithm of…

Hirschfeld classified split del Pezzo surfaces of degree at least three whose points are all contained on the lines in the surface. We continue his work and begin the classification of split degree two del Pezzo surfaces over finite fields…

We construct examples of surfaces of general type with $p_g=1$, $q=0$ and $K^2=6$. We use as key varieties Fano fourfolds and Calabi-Yau threefolds that are zero section of some special homogeneous vector bundle on Grassmannians. We link as…

A conic of the Veronese surface in PG(5,3) is a quadrangle. If one such quadrangle is replaced with its diagonal triangle, then one obtains a point model $K$ for Witt's 5-$(12,6,1)$ design, the blocks being the hyperplane sections…

We consider del Pezzo surfaces $X$ with du Val singularities. Assume that $X$ has a $-K_X$-polar cylinder and $\deg X=1$. Let $H$ be an ample divisor. We'll prove that $X$ has a $H$-polar cylinder.

We study del Pezzo varieties, higher-dimensional analogues of del Pezzo surfaces. In particular, we introduce ADE classification of del Pezzo varieties, show that in type A the dimension of non-conical del Pezzo varieties is bounded by $12…
