Let S1 be a Del Pezzo surface of degree 1 over a number field k. We establish a criterion for the existence of a nontrivial element of order 5 in the Brauer group of S1 in terms of certain Galois-stable configurations of exceptional divisors on this surface.

AbstractLet Y be a smooth del Pezzo surface of degree 3 polarized by a very ample divisor that is not proportional to the anticanonical one. Then the affine cone over Y is flexible in codimension one. Equivalently, such a cone has an open subset with an infinitely transitive action of the special automorphism group on it.

Abstract Bershadsky, Cecotti, Ooguri, and Vafa constructed a real-valued invariant for Calabi–Yau manifolds, which is called the BCOV invariant. In this paper, we consider a pair $(X,Y)$, where $X$ is a compact Kähler manifold and $Y\in \big |K_X^m\big |$ with $m\in{\mathbb{Z}}\backslash \{0,-1\}$. We extend the BCOV invariant to such pairs. If $m=-2$ and $X$ is a rigid del Pezzo surface, the extended BCOV invariant is equivalent to Yoshikawa’s equivariant BCOV invariant. If $m=1$, the extended BCOV invariant is well behaved under blowup. It was conjectured that birational Calabi–Yau three-folds have the same BCOV invariant. As an application of our extended BCOV invariant, we show that this conjecture holds for Atiyah flops.

For each del Pezzo surface $S$ with du Val singularities, we determine whether it admits a $(-K_{S})$-polar cylinder or not. If it allows one, then we present an effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $D$ that is $\mathbb{Q}$-linearly equivalent to $-K_{S}$ and such that the open set $S\setminus \text{Supp}(D)$ is a cylinder. As a corollary, we classify all the del Pezzo surfaces with du Val singularities that admit non-trivial $\mathbb{G}_{a}$-actions on their affine cones defined by their anticanonical divisors.

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to describe the geometry of the generic Kummer surface associated to a (1, 2)-polarized abelian surface. We show that it is the double cover of a weak del Pezzo surface and that it inherits from the del Pezzo surface an interesting elliptic fibration with twelve singular fibers of typeI2.

Height Zeta Function

AbstractThis paper establishes the Manin conjecture for a certain non-split singular del Pezzo surface of degree four$X \subset \bfP^4$. In fact, ifU⊂Xis the open subset formed by deleting the lines fromX, andHis the usual projective height function on$\bfP^4(\Q)$, then the height zeta function$ \sum_{x \in U(\Q)}{H(x)^{-s}} $is analytically continued to the half-plane ℜe(s) > 17/20.
