We extend the results of Pareschi on the constancy of the gonality and Clifford index of smooth curves in a complete linear system on Del Pezzo surfaces of degrees $\geq 2$ to the case of Del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1, where we explicitly…

We solve categorical Torelli problem for quartic del Pezzo surfaces. That is, we prove that a del Pezzo surface of degree $4$ can be canonically reconstructed from its Kuznetsov component, which is the orthogonal subcategory to the…

We show that among simply connected surfaces of general type unirationality is a common feature, even when fixing the positive characteristic or numerical invariants. To do so, we construct unirational Horikawa surfaces in abundance.

We prove Manin's conjecture for split smooth quintic del Pezzo surfaces over arbitrary number fields with respect to fairly general anticanonical height functions. After passing to universal torsors, we first show that we may restrict the…

The "canonical dimension" of an algebraic group over a field by definition is the maximum of the canonical dimensions of principal homogenous spaces under that group. Over a field of characteristic zero, we prove that the canonical…

A variety X with an action of a finite group G is said to be G-unirational if there is a G-equivariant dominant rational map V -> X where V is a faithful linear representation of G. This generalizes the usual notion of unirationality. We…

We state a number of conjectures that together allow one to classify a broad class of del Pezzo surfaces with cyclic quotient singularities using mirror symmetry. We prove our conjectures in the simplest cases. The conjectures relate…

Consider a rational elliptic surface over a field $k$ with characteristic $0$ given by $\mathcal{E}: y^2 = x^3 + f(t)x + g(t)$, with $f,g\in k[t]$, $\text{deg}(f) \leq 4$ and $\text{deg}(g) \leq 6$. If all the bad fibres are irreducible,…

The main result of the paper is a boundedness for $n$-complements on algebraic surfaces. In addition, applications of this theorem to a classification of log Del Pezzo surfaces and of birational contractions for 3-folds are formulated.

We study admissible subcategories of derived categories of coherent sheaves on del Pezzo surfaces and rational elliptic surfaces. Using a relation between admissible subcategories and anticanonical divisors we prove the following results.…

Given a minimal surface equipped with a generically finite map to an Abelian variety, we give an optimal bound on the canonical degree of a rational or an elliptic curve. As a corollary, we obtain the finiteness of rational and elliptic…

The purpose of this note is to establish a direct link between the theory of unexpected hypersurfaces and varieties with defective osculating behavior. We identify unexpected plane curves of degree 4 as sections of a rational surface X of…

We compute global log canonical thresholds of a large class of quasismooth well-formed del Pezzo weighted hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}(a_{1},a_{2},a_{3},a_{4})$. As a corollary we obtain the existence of orbifold K\"ahler--Einstein metrics…

We investigate Manin's conjecture for del Pezzo surfaces of degree five with a conic bundle structure, proving matching upper and lower bounds, and the full conjecture in the Galois general case.

From a hermitian metric on the anticanonical bundle on a Del Pezzo surface, and a holomorphic section of it, we construct a one parameter family of bihermitian metrics (or equivalently generalized Kaehler structures). The construction…

A conjecture of Manin predicts the asymptotic distribution of rational points of bounded height on Fano varieties. In this paper we use conic bundles to obtain correct lower bounds or a wide class of surfaces over number fields for which…

In this note we study in detail the geometry of eight rational elliptic surfaces naturally associated to the sixteen reflexive polygons. The elliptic fibrations supported by these surfaces correspond under mirror symmetry to the eight…

Building upon the classification by Lacini [arXiv:2005.14544], we determine the isomorphism classes of log del Pezzo surfaces of rank one over an algebraically closed field of characteristic five either which are not log liftable over the…

We report on our project to construct non-singular cubic surfaces over $\bbQ$ with a rational line. Our method is to start with degree 4 Del Pezzo surfaces in diagonal form. For these, we develop an explicit version of Galois descent.

This note gives two examples of surfaces with normal crossing singularities. In the first example the canonical ring is not finitely generated. In the second, the canonical line bundle is not ample but its pull back to the normalization is…
