AbstractIn this article we study the transitivity of the group of automorphisms of real algebraic surfaces. We characterize real algebraic surfaces with very transitive automorphism groups. We give applications to the classification of real algebraic models of compact surfaces: these applications yield new insight into the geometry of the real locus, proving several surprising facts on this geometry. This geometry can be thought of as a half-way point between the biregular and birational geometries.

AbstractWe establish Noether’s inequality for surfaces of general type in positive characteristic. Then we extend Enriques’ and Horikawa’s classification of surfaces on the Noether line, the so-called Horikawa surfaces. We construct examples for all possible numerical invariants and in arbitrary characteristic, where we need foliations and deformation techniques to handle characteristic 2. Finally, we show that Horikawa surfaces lift to characteristic zero.

Let [Formula: see text] be the subgroup of the group [Formula: see text] of holomorphic automorphisms of a normal affine algebraic surface [Formula: see text] generated by elements of flows associated with complete algebraic vector fields. Our main result is a classification of all normal affine algebraic surfaces [Formula: see text] quasi-homogeneous under [Formula: see text] in terms of the dual graphs of the boundaries [Formula: see text] of their SNC-completions [Formula: see text].

The work of this note was motivated in the first place by North-cott's theory of dilatations for one-dimensional local rings (see, for example (4) and (5)). This produces a tree of local rings as in (4) which corresponds, in the abstract case, to the branching sequence of infinitely-near multiple points on an algebroid curve. From the algebraic point of view it seems more natural to characterize such one-dimensional local rings R by means of the set of rings which arise by blowing up all ideals Q which are primary for the maximal ideals M of R. This set of rings forms a lattice (R), ordered by inclusion, each ring S of which is a finite R-module. Moreover the length of the R-module S/R is just the reduction number of the corresponding ideal Q (cf. theorem 1 of Northcott (6)). Thus the lattice (R) provides a finer classification of the rings R than does the set of reduction numbers (cf. Kirby (1)).

This chapter discusses complex algebraic surfaces, with particular emphasis on the Miyaoka-Yau inequality and the rough classification of surfaces. Every complex algebraic surface is birationally equivalent to a smooth surface containing no exceptional curves. The latter is known as a minimal surface. Two related birational invariants, the plurigenus and the Kodaira dimension, play an important role in distinguishing between complex surfaces. The chapter first provides an overview of the rough classification of (smooth complex connected compact algebraic) surfaces before presenting two approaches that, in dimension 2, give the Miyaoka-Yau inequality. The first, due to Miyaoka, uses algebraic geometry, whereas the second, due to Aubin and Yau, uses analysis and differential geometry. The chapter also explains why equality in the Miyaoka-Yau inequality characterizes surfaces of general type that are free quotients of the complex 2-ball.
