Abstract: We introduce arrangements of rational sections over curves. They generalize line arrangements on P^2. Each arrangement of d sections defines a single curve in P^{d-2} through the Kapranov's construction of �ar{M}_{0,d+1}. We show a one-to-one correspondence between arrangements of d sections and irreducible curves in M_{0,d+1}, giving also correspondences for two distinguished subclasses: transversal and simple crossing. Then, we associate to each arrangement A (and so to each irreducible curve in M_{0,d+1}) several families of nonsingular projective surfaces X of general type with Chern numbers asymptotically proportional to various log Chern numbers defined by A. For example, for extended families over the complex numbers, one has that any such X is of positive index and pi_1(X) = pi_1(�ar{A}), where �ar{A} is the normalization of A. In this way, any rational curve in M_{0,d+1} produces simply connected surfaces with 2< c_1^2(X)/c_2(X) <3. Inequalities like these come from log Chern inequalities, which are in general connected to geometric height inequalities (see Appendix). Along the way, we show examples of 'etale simply connected surfaces of general type in any characteristic violating any sort of Miyaoka-Yau inequality.

Review text

An arrangement of lines in the plane can be thought as an abstract curve \(C\) (a projective line) and a finite collection of sections of the line bundle \(O(1)\). In this sense the notion of arrangement of lines can be generalized to the notion of arrangement of rational sections over a nonsingular projective curve \(C\): a finite set of sections of a line bundle \(L\) on \(C\). In this paper a one-to-one correspondence between arrangements of \(d\) sections and irreducible curves in \(M_{0,d+1}\) (the moduli of genus zero curves with \(d+1\) marked ordered points) is provided. Furthermore, given an arrangement of sections, say \(A\), various families of nonsingular projective surfaces are associated to \(A\). The study of the invariants of these surfaces shows examples of étale simply connected surfaces of general type in any positive characteristic violating any sort of Miyaoka-Yau inequality.
