The Dynkin Diagrams of Rational Double Points
Rational double points are the simplest surface singularities. In this essay we will be mainly concerned with the geometry of the exceptional set corresponding to the resolution of a rational double point. We will derive the classification of rational double points in terms of Dynkin diagrams.
متن کاملRational double points on supersingular K3 surfaces
We investigate configurations of rational double points with the total Milnor number 21 on supersingular K3 surfaces. The complete list of possible configurations is given. As an application, we also give the complete list of extremal (quasi-)elliptic fibrations on supersingular K3 surfaces.
متن کاملExceptional Covers and Bijections on Rational Points
We show that if f : X −→ Y is a finite, separable morphism of smooth curves defined over a finite field Fq, where q is larger than an explicit constant depending only on the degree of f and the genus of X , then f maps X(Fq) surjectively onto Y (Fq) if and only if f maps X(Fq) injectively into Y (Fq). Surprisingly, the bounds on q for these two implications have different orders of magnitude. T...
متن کاملCounting Rational Points on Smooth Cyclic Covers
A conjecture of Serre concerns the number of rational points of bounded height on a finite cover of projective space Pn−1. In this paper, we achieve Serre’s conjecture in the special case of smooth cyclic covers of any degree when n ≥ 10, and surpass it for covers of degree r ≥ 3 when n > 10. This is achieved by a new bound for the number of perfect r-th power values of a polynomial with nonsin...
متن کاملPainlevé equations and deformations of rational surfaces with rational double points ∗ †
In this paper we give an answer to the fundamental questions about the Painlevé equations. Where do the Bäcklund transformations come from? Our approach depends on the geometry of the projective surface constructed by Okamoto and reviewed in [U2]. The Painlevé equations were discovered around 1900 in the pursuit of special functions. Painlevé and Gambier classified algebraic differential equati...
