We construct a Kawamata type semiorthogondal decomposition for the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves of nodal quintic del Pezzo threefolds, decomposing the bounded derived category into bounded derived categories of finite…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $H\subseteq G$ be its subgroup. We prove that if a smooth del Pezzo surface over an algebraically closed field is $H$-birationally rigid then it is also $G$-birationally rigid, answering a geometric version of…
We show how to construct infinite families of explicitly determined cubic number fields whose class group has a subgroup isomorphic to $(\mathbb{Z}/2)^8$ using degree $1$ del Pezzo surfaces. We illustrate the method and provide an example…
We show how the real lines on a real del Pezzo surface of degree 1 can be split into two species, elliptic and hyperbolic, via a certain distinguished, intrinsically defined, Pin-structure on the real locus of the surface. We prove that…
We study the arithmetic of del Pezzo surfaces $Y$ of degree 2 over a function field, and in particular, the cokernel of the homomorphism from the Picard group to the Galois-invariants of the geometric Picard group $\operatorname{Pic} Y…
Coble defined in his 1929 treatise invariants for cubic surfaces and quartic curves. We reinterpret these in terms of the root systems of type E_6 and E_7 that are naturally associated to these varieties, thereby giving some of his results…
We classify del Pezzo surfaces with 1/3(1,1) points in 29 qG-deformation families grouped into six unprojection cascades (this overlaps with work of Fujita and Yasutake), we tabulate their biregular invariants, we give good model…
We describe a normal form for a smooth intersection of two quadrics in even-dimensional projective space over an arbitrary field of characteristic 2. We use this to obtain a description of the automorphism group of such a variety. As an…
Given a del Pezzo surface of degree d between 1 and 6, possibly with rational double points, we construct a "tautological" holomorphic G-bundle over X, where G is a reductive group which is an appropriate conformal form of the simply…
We construct an example of a field and a del Pezzo surface of degree $2$ over this field without points such that its automorphism group is isomorphic to $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{F}_7) \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z},$ which is the largest…
Given a degree one del Pezzo surface with canonical singularities, the linear series generated by twice the anti-canonical divisor exhibits the surface as the double cover of the quadric cone branched along a sextic curve. It is natural to…
\special{html:<a href="hrefstring">} Let $Y$ be a del Pezzo variety of degree $d\leq 4$ and dimension $n\geq 3$, let $H$ be an ample class such that $-K_Y=(n-1)H$ and let $Z\subset Y$ be a $0$-dimensional subscheme of length $d$ such that…
In this paper, we investigate the geometry of moduli space $P_d$ of degree $d$ del Pezzo pair, that is, a del Pezzo surface $X$ of degree $d$ with a curve $C \sim -2K_X$. More precisely, we study compactifications for $P_d$ from both…
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 jacobians of plane quartics without complex multiplication, using Del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2.
We isolate a class of smooth rational cubic fourfolds X containing a plane whose associated quadric surface bundle does not have a rational section. This is equivalent to the nontriviality of the Brauer class of the even Clifford algebra…
In this paper we describe the geometry of the 2m-dimensional Fano manifold G parametrizing (m-1)-planes in a smooth complete intersection Z of two quadric hypersurfaces in the complex projective space P^{2m+2}, for m>0. We show that there…
We consider $\mathbb{P}(1,1,1,2)$ bundles over $\mathbb{P}^1$ and construct hypersurfaces of these bundles which form a degree 2 del Pezzo fibration over $\mathbb{P}^1$ as a Mori fibre space. We classify all such hypersurfaces whose type…
We prove birational rigidity and calculate the group of birational automorphisms of a nodal Q-factorial double cover $X$ of a smooth three-dimensional quadric branched over a quartic section. We also prove that $X$ is Q-factorial provided…
Cubic fourfolds of discriminant 24 contain special codimension-two algebraic cycles of degree 6 and self-intersection 20. Such cycles may be represented by singular scrolls or del Pezzo surfaces. A discriminant 24 cubic fourfold gives rise…
