AbstractWe extend the normal surface Q-theory to non-compact 3-manifolds with respect to ideal triangulations. An ideal triangulation of a 3-manifold often has a small number of tetrahedra resulting in a system of Q-matching equations with a small number of variables. A unique feature of our approach is that a compact surface F with boundary properly embedded in a non-compact 3-manifold M with an ideal triangulation with torus cusps can be represented by a normal surface in M as follows. A half-open annulus made up of an infinite number of triangular disks is attached to each boundary component of F. The resulting surface , when normalized, will contain only a finite number of Q-disks and thus correspond to an admissible solution to the system of Q-matching equations. The correspondence is bijective.

We give a method to find ideal points of the character variety of a 3-manifold with toral boundary. This can be easily carried out by using linear algebra.

Minimal algebraic surfaces of general type [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] are called Horikawa surfaces. In this note, [Formula: see text]-actions on Horikawa surfaces are studied. The main result states that given an admissible pair [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text], all the connected components of Gieseker’s moduli space [Formula: see text] contain surfaces admitting a [Formula: see text]-action. On the other hand, the examples considered allow us to produce normal stable surfaces that do not admit a [Formula: see text]-Gorenstein smoothing. This is illustrated by constructing non-smoothable normal surfaces in the KSBA-compactification [Formula: see text] of Gieseker’s moduli space [Formula: see text] for every admissible pair [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text]. Furthermore, the surfaces constructed belong to connected components of [Formula: see text] without canonical models.
