چکیده

Given a projective surface and a generic projection to the plane, the braid monodromy factorization (and thus, the braid monodromy type) of the complement of its branch curve is one of the most important topological invariants ([10]), stable on deformations. From this factorization, one can compute the fundamental group of the complement of the branch curve, either in C or in CP. In this article, we show that these groups, for the Hirzebruch surface F1,(a,b), are almost-solvable. That is they are an extension of a solvable group, which strengthen the conjecture on degeneratable surfaces (see [13]). keywords:Hirzebruch surfaces, degeneration, generic projection, branch curve, braid monodromy, fundamental group, classification of surfaces. AMS classification numbers: 14D05, 14D06, 14E25, 14H30, 14J10, 14Q05, 14Q10.

The Fundamental Group of the Complement of the Branch Curve of T × T in C

This paper is the second in a series of three papers concerning the surface T×T , where T is a complex torus. We compute the fundamental group of the branch curve of the surface in C, using the van Kampen Theorem and the braid monodromy factorization of the curve. 1. Background The concentration on the fundamental group of a complement of a branch curve of an algebraic surfaceX with respect to ...

The Fundamental Group’s Structure of the Complement of Some Configurations of Real Line Arrangements

In this paper, we give a fully detailed exposition of computing fundamental groups of complements of line arrangements using the Moishezon-Teicher technique for computing the braid monodromy of a curve and the Van-Kampen theorem which induces a presentation of the fundamental group of the complement from the braid monodromy of the curve. For example, we treated the cases where the arrangement h...

The Fundamental Group of a Cp Complement of a Branch Curve as an Extension of a Solvable Group by a Symmetric Group

The main result in this paper is as follows: Theorem. Let S be the branch curve in CP of a generic projection of a Veronese surface. Then π1(CP −S) is an extension of a solvable group by a symmetric group. A group with the property mentioned in the theorem is “almost solvable” in the sense that it contains a solvable normal subgroup of finite index. We pose the following question. Question. For...

New invariants for surfaces

We define a new invariant of surfaces, stable on connected components of moduli spaces of surfaces. The new invariant comes from the polycyclic structure of the fundamental group of the complement of a branch curve. We compute this invariant for a few examples. Braid monodromy factorizations related to curves is a first step in computing the fundamental group of the complement of the curve, and...

Braid Monodromy Factorization for a Non-prime K3 Surface Branch Curve Amram Meirav, Ciliberto Ciro, Miranda Rick and Teicher Mina

In this paper we consider a non-prime K3 surface of degree 16, and study a specific degeneration of it, known as the (2, 2)-pillow degeneration, [10]. We study also the braid monodromy factorization of the branch curve of the surface with respect to a generic projection onto CP. In [4] we compute the fundamental groups of the complement of the branch curve and of the corresponding Galois cover ...
