Divisibilities among nodal curves

Algebraic Geometry 2017-06-05 v1

Abstract

We prove that there are no effective or anti-effective classes of square -1 or -2 arising from nodal curves on smooth algebraic surfaces by way of divisibility. This general fact has interesting applications to Enriques and K3 surfaces. The proof relies on specific properties of root lattices and their duals.
