The moduli space of cubic surfaces and its orbifold fundamental group

Daniel Allcock, Tathagata Basak, Eduard Looijenga

We find a new presentation of the orbifold fundamental group of the moduli space of cubic surfaces, based on the Artin group of the Petersen graph. This group has two well-known qu…

Tropical moduli spaces as symmetric Delta-complexes

Daniel Allcock, Daniel Corey, Sam Payne

We develop techniques for studying fundamental groups and integral singular homology of symmetric Delta-complexes, and apply these techniques to study moduli spaces of stable tropi…

The tetrahedron and automorphisms of Enriques and Coble surfaces of Hessian type

Daniel Allcock, Igor Dolgachev

Consider a cubic surface satisfying the mild condition that it may be described in Sylvester's pentahedral form. There is a well-known Enriques or Coble surface S with K3 cover bir…

Congruence subgroups and Enriques surface automorphisms

Daniel Allcock

We give conceptual proofs of some results on the automorphism group of an Enriques surface X, for which only computational proofs have been available. Namely, there is an obvious u…

A fake plane via 2-adic uniformization with torsion

Daniel Allcock, Fumiharu Kato

We adapt the theory of non-Archimedean uniformization to construct a smooth surface from a lattice in PGL3(Q2) that has nontrivial torsion. It turns out to be a fake projective pla…

Hyperbolic geometry and moduli of real cubic surfaces

Daniel Allcock, James A. Carlson, Domingo Toledo

Let M_0^R be the moduli space of smooth real cubic surfaces. We show that each of its components admits a real hyperbolic structure. More precisely, one can remove some lower-dimen…
