Let F be an algebraically closed field, denote by \({\mathbb{P}}^ 2(F)\) the projective plane over F, and let X be a singular Gorenstein surface over F with first Betti number equal to 1 and with negative canonical line bundle. In this paper we give a complete classification of all rational mappings \(f: X\to {\mathbb{P}}^ 2(F)\) for which the singularities of f can be resolved simultaneously with the singularities of X. The technique involves analyzing the configurations of negatively embedded curves on non-singular Del Pezzo surfaces in terms of collections of extended Coxeter graphs, with some special results in the case of fields of characteristic 2. As a consequence we find all compactifications of a particularly nice type of affine subvarieties of \({\mathbb{P}}^ 2({\mathbb{C}}).\) [These results have been announced by the authors in Singularities, Summer Inst., Arcata/Calif. 1981, Proc.
