In this paper, we consider rational cuspidal plane curves having exactly two cusps whose complements have logarithmic Kodaira dimension two. We classify such curves with the property that the strict transforms of them via the minimal…
We study Coble surfaces in characteristic 2, in particular, singularities of their canonical coverings. As an application we classify Coble surfaces with finite automorphism group in characteristic 2. There are exactly 9 types of such…
A complex K3 surface or an algebraic K3 surface in characteristics distinct from $2$ cannot have more than $16$ disjoint nodal curves.
An elliptic pair $(X, C)$ is a projective rational surface $X$ with log terminal singularities, and an irreducible curve $C$ contained in the smooth locus of $X$, with arithmetic genus one and self-intersection zero. They are a useful tool…
It is hypothetized that the algebra of the configuration of twenty-seven lines lying on a general cubic surface underlines the dimensional hierarchy of heterotic string spacetimes.
We exhibit planar, rational curves of large degree over ${\mathbb F}_2$ that have a unique singular point, which has multiplicity 2. In characteristic 0 such curves exist only for degrees up to $6$. v.2: references updated and examples of…
Over the complex numbers, there are 92 plane conics meeting 8 general lines in projective 3-space. Using the Euler class and local degree from motivic homotopy theory, we give an enriched version of this result over any perfect field. This…
In this note we give a computationally easy to use method to compute a maximal extension of certain varieties. As a application we prove that a general paracanonical curve C genus 6 as a codimension three subvarieties of P^4 extend to…
We prove that every K3 surface with automorphism group $(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})^2$ admits an explicit birational model as a double sextic surface. This model is canonical for Picard number greater than 10. For Picard number greater than 9,…
In this note, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height on the singular cubic surface $$ x_0(x_1^2 + x_2^2)=x_3^3 $$ with a power-saving error term, which verifies the Manin-Peyre conjectures for…
We construct a countable family of multi-dimensional continued fraction algorithms, built out of five specific multidimensional continued fractions, and find a wide class of cubic irrational real numbers a so that either (a, a^2) or (a,…
Explicit models of families of genus 2 curves with multiplication by $\sqrt D$ are known for $D= 2, 3, 5$. We obtain generic models for genus 2 curves over $\mathbb Q$ with real multiplication in 12 new cases, including all fundamental…
We compute some numerical invariants of the lines on hyperplane sections of a smooth cubic threefold over complex numbers. We also prove that for any smooth hypersurface $X\subset \mathbb P^{n+1}$ of degree $d$ over an algebraically closed…
We determine all genus 2 curves, defined over $\mathbb C$, which have simultaneously degree 2 and 3 elliptic subcovers. The locus of such curves has three irreducible 1-dimensional genus zero components in $\mathcal M_2$. For each component…
The essential requirement for a cubic graph to be called a snark is that it can not be edge-coloured with three colours. To avoid trivial cases, varying restrictions on the connectivity are imposed. Snarks are not only interesting in…
Surfaces of general type with canonical map of degree d bigger than 8 have bounded geometric genus and irregularity. In particular the irregularity is at most 2 if d>= 10. In the present paper, the existence of surfaces with d=10 and all…
We demonstrate that the geometric, topological, and combinatorial complexities of certain surfaces in $\mathbb{CP}^2$ are closely related: We prove that a positive genus surface $\mathcal{K}$ in $\mathbb{CP}^2$ that minimizes genus in its…
The aim of this paper is to present two different constructions of smooth rational surfaces in projective fourspace with degree 12 and sectional genus 13. In particular, we establish the existences of five different families of smooth…
We study ${\mathcal N}=(1,0)$ six-dimensional theories living on defects of non-geometric backgrounds of the $E_8\times E_8$ and the $\text{Spin}(32)/{\mathbb Z}_2$ heterotic strings. Such configurations can be analyzed by dualizing to…
We study singularities of constant positive Gaussian curvature surfaces and determine the way they bifurcate in generic 1-parameter families of such surfaces. We construct the bifurcations explicitly using loop group methods. Constant…
