Fibrations of genus two on complex surfaces (Q1758366)

This paper is devoted to study the fibrations of genus 2. \textit{Y. Matsumoto} and \textit{J.-M. Montesinos} [Bull. Am. Math. Soc., New Ser. 30, No. 1, 70--75 (1994; Zbl 0797.30036)] showed that the topological type of a neighborhood of a singular fiber in a fibration of genus \(g\geq 2\) is determined by the action of the monodromy in the mapping class group of the Riemann surface \(S_g\) of genus \(g\) (a sort of ``non-commutative monodromy'' where \(H_1(S_g;\mathbb{Z})\) is substituted by the fundamental group of \(S_g\)); that is, two fibrations of genus \(g\geq 2\) are topologically conjugate if and only if their ``non-commutative monodromy maps'' coincide. The authors prove, in some sense, an extension of this result (for fibrations of genus 2) concerning regularity properties of the conjugating homeomorphism. In particular, they prove that if the combinatorial data (structure of irreducible components, along with their intersections and self-intersection numbers) of the singular fibers of two fibrations of genus 2 coincide, all their irreducible components are rational curves and the corresponding Dynkin diagrams coontain no loop, then there exists a \(C^{\infty}\)-diffeomorphism (that is transversely holomorphic) that conjugates the two fibrations. Moreover it is proved that, if two isotrivial fibrations with isomorphic (as Riemann surfaces) corresponding generic fibers are conjugate by a diffeomorphism as before, then they are conjugate by a holomorphic diffeomorphism. Finally, a general description of isotrivial fibrations of genus 2 is provided. The paper uses, as a main tool, the theory of singular holomorphic foliations.
