On a family of complex algebraic surfaces of degree \(3n\)



Abstract: We study a class of algebraic surfaces of degree 3n in the complex projective space with only ordinary double points. They are obtained by using bivariate polynomials with complex coefficients related to the generalized cosine associated to the affine Weyl group of the root system A2.


For each integer \(n>0\), the author constructs a surface \(U_d\subset\mathbb P^3(\mathbb C)\) of degree \(d=3n\) with a large number of nodes, improving Chmutov's lower bound by a linear term \(\lfloor(d-1)/2\rfloor\). The construction follows \textit{S. V. Chmutov}'s ideas [J. Algebr. Geom. 1, No. 2, 191--196 (1992; Zbl 0785.14020)], using a slightly modified folding polynomial. The author announces also the existence of real surfaces with the same number of real singularities. As another application of the new family of folding polynomials, hypersurfaces in \(\mathbb P^4(\mathbb C)\) with many nodes are constructed, improving Chmutov's bound by \(3n(n-1)\).
