Enriques-Kodaira classification of minimal resolution of surface with quotient singularities

Let $X$ be a normal projective complex surface with at worst quotient singularities. Let $\bar{X}\to X$ be the minimal resolution. Further assume that $b_2(X)=1$ and $b_1(X)=b_3(X)=0$. Since quotient ...

BMY inequality for surfaces of general type in characteristic 0

Let $X$ be a smooth, complex, projective, minimal surface of general type, i.e. the canonical (line) bundle $K_X$ is big and nef. It is known that $3c_2\geq c_1^2$ (the Bogomolov-Miyaoka-Yau ...

Fundamental group of a smoothing of a complex surface

Let $X_0$ be a compact complex algebraic surface with an isolated singularity and let $X_t$ be a smoothing of $X_0$ over the disc. How can we compute the fundamental group of $X_t$ say in terms of the ...

Global generation of $S^n \Omega_X$ for a fake projective plane

Let $X$ be a fake projective plane, namely, a compact complex surface with $$p_g(X)=q(X)=0, \quad K_X^2=9$$ and $K_X$ ample. Since $K_X^2=9 \chi(\mathcal{O}_X)$, Yau's celebrated proof of the Calabi ...

Surface with $\Omega_X$ globally generated and singular Albanese image

This question is inspired by abx's comment to my previous question MO430933. Let $X$ be a complex surface of general type, and denote by $$a \colon X \to \operatorname{Alb}(X)$$ the Albanese map of $X$...

Lower bound for $h^0(X, \operatorname{Sym}^n \Omega_X)$

This is a weaker version of my previous (unanswered) question MO429574. Let us start with a smooth, ample divisor $X$ in an abelian threefold $A$. It is a surface of general type such that $\Omega_X$ ...

Different algebraic structures on complements to divisors

Complements to square-zero curves in projective surfaces sometimes have several non-isomorphic algebraic structures. Serre’s example is possibly the most famous illustration of this phenomenon (see f....

Constructions of complex surfaces covered by the ball of $\mathbb{C}^2$

Let $S$ be a compact complex surface. It is well-known that the following two facts are equivalent $c_1^2(S) = 3 c_2(S)$ and $S \neq \mathbb{CP}^2$ The universal cover of $S$ is biholomorphic to the ...

Relating the holomorphic Euler characteristic of a family of algebraic varieties to properties of the base and fibers

Let $f : X\rightarrow Y$ be a proper flat morphism (of schemes) with connected fibers over a smooth projective curve $Y$ over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $X_{y_0}$ denote a smooth fiber over $y_0\in Y$. If $f$ ...

Seeking concrete examples of "generic" elliptic fibrations of K3 surfaces

For me a K3 surface will be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension 2 that is simply-connected and has trivial canonical bundle. Given a K3 surface $X$, an elliptic fibration $\pi \colon X \...
