Inoue surface

☆ Save On Wikipedia ↗

In complex geometry, an Inoue surface is any of several complex surfaces of Kodaira class VII. They are named after Masahisa Inoue, who gave the first non-trivial examples of Kodaira class VII surfaces in 1974.[1]

The Inoue surfaces are not Kähler manifolds.

Inoue surfaces with b2 = 0

Inoue introduced three families of surfaces, S0, S+ and S−, which are compact quotients of C × H {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} } {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} } (a product of a complex plane by a half-plane). These Inoue surfaces are solvmanifolds. They are obtained as quotients of C × H {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} } {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} } by a solvable discrete group which acts holomorphically on C × H . {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} .} {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} .}

The solvmanifold surfaces constructed by Inoue all have second Betti number b 2 = 0 {\displaystyle b_{2}=0} {\displaystyle b_{2}=0}. These surfaces are of Kodaira class VII, which means that they have b 1 = 1 {\displaystyle b_{1}=1} {\displaystyle b_{1}=1} and Kodaira dimension − ∞ {\displaystyle -\infty } {\displaystyle -\infty }. It was proven by Bogomolov,[2] Li–Yau[3] and Teleman[4] that any surface of class VII with b 2 = 0 {\textstyle b_{2}=0} {\textstyle b_{2}=0} is a Hopf surface or an Inoue-type solvmanifold.

These surfaces have no meromorphic functions and no curves.

K. Hasegawa [5] gives a list of all complex 2-dimensional solvmanifolds; these are complex torus, hyperelliptic surface, Kodaira surface and Inoue surfaces S0, S+ and S−.

The Inoue surfaces are constructed explicitly as follows.[5]

Of type S0

Let φ be an integer 3 × 3 matrix, with two complex eigenvalues α , α ¯ {\displaystyle \alpha ,{\overline {\alpha }}} {\displaystyle \alpha ,{\overline {\alpha }}} and a real eigenvalue c > 1, with | α | 2 c = 1 {\displaystyle |\alpha |^{2}c=1} {\displaystyle |\alpha |^{2}c=1}. Then φ is invertible over integers, and defines an action of the group of integers, Z , {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} ,} {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} ,} on Z 3 {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} ^{3}} {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} ^{3}}. Let Γ := Z 3 ⋊ Z . {\displaystyle \Gamma :=\mathbb {Z} ^{3}\rtimes \mathbb {Z} .} {\displaystyle \Gamma :=\mathbb {Z} ^{3}\rtimes \mathbb {Z} .} This group is a lattice in solvable Lie group

R 3 ⋊ R = ( C × R ) ⋊ R , {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}\rtimes \mathbb {R} =(\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} )\rtimes \mathbb {R} ,} {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}\rtimes \mathbb {R} =(\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} )\rtimes \mathbb {R} ,}

acting on C × R , {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} ,} {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} ,} with the ( C × R ) {\displaystyle (\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} )} {\displaystyle (\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} )}-part acting by translations and the ⋊ R {\displaystyle \rtimes \mathbb {R} } {\displaystyle \rtimes \mathbb {R} }-part as ( z , r ) ↦ ( α t z , c t r ) . {\displaystyle (z,r)\mapsto (\alpha ^{t}z,c^{t}r).} {\displaystyle (z,r)\mapsto (\alpha ^{t}z,c^{t}r).}

We extend this action to C × H = C × R × R > 0 {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} =\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} \times \mathbb {R} ^{>0}} {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} =\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} \times \mathbb {R} ^{>0}} by setting v ↦ e log ⁡ c t v {\displaystyle v\mapsto e^{\log ct}v} {\displaystyle v\mapsto e^{\log ct}v}, where t is the parameter of the ⋊ R {\displaystyle \rtimes \mathbb {R} } {\displaystyle \rtimes \mathbb {R} }-part of R 3 ⋊ R , {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}\rtimes \mathbb {R} ,} {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}\rtimes \mathbb {R} ,} and acting trivially with the R 3 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}} {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}} factor on R > 0 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{>0}} {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{>0}}. This action is clearly holomorphic, and the quotient C × H / Γ {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} /\Gamma } {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} /\Gamma } is called Inoue surface of type S 0 . {\displaystyle S^{0}.} {\displaystyle S^{0}.}

The Inoue surface of type S0 is determined by the choice of an integer matrix φ, constrained as above. There is a countable number of such surfaces.

Of type S+

Let n be a positive integer, and Λ n {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}} {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}} be the group of upper triangular matrices

[ 1 x z / n 0 1 y 0 0 1 ] , x , y , z ∈ Z . {\displaystyle {\begin{bmatrix}1&x&z/n\\0&1&y\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix}},\qquad x,y,z\in \mathbb {Z} .} {\displaystyle {\begin{bmatrix}1&x&z/n\\0&1&y\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix}},\qquad x,y,z\in \mathbb {Z} .}

The quotient of Λ n {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}} {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}} by its center C is Z 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} ^{2}} {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} ^{2}}. Let φ be an automorphism of Λ n {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}} {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}}, we assume that φ acts on Λ n / C = Z 2 {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}/C=\mathbb {Z} ^{2}} {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}/C=\mathbb {Z} ^{2}} as a matrix with two positive real eigenvalues a, b, and ab = 1. Consider the solvable group Γ n := Λ n ⋊ Z , {\displaystyle \Gamma _{n}:=\Lambda _{n}\rtimes \mathbb {Z} ,} {\displaystyle \Gamma _{n}:=\Lambda _{n}\rtimes \mathbb {Z} ,} with Z {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} } {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} } acting on Λ n {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}} {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}} as φ. Identifying the group of upper triangular matrices with R 3 , {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3},} {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3},} we obtain an action of Γ n {\displaystyle \Gamma _{n}} {\displaystyle \Gamma _{n}} on R 3 = C × R . {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}=\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} .} {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}=\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} .} Define an action of Γ n {\displaystyle \Gamma _{n}} {\displaystyle \Gamma _{n}} on C × H = C × R × R > 0 {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} =\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} \times \mathbb {R} ^{>0}} {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} =\mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {R} \times \mathbb {R} ^{>0}} with Λ n {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}} {\displaystyle \Lambda _{n}} acting trivially on the R > 0 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{>0}} {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{>0}}-part and the Z {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} } {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} } acting as v ↦ e t log ⁡ b v . {\displaystyle v\mapsto e^{t\log b}v.} {\displaystyle v\mapsto e^{t\log b}v.} The same argument as for Inoue surfaces of type S 0 {\displaystyle S^{0}} {\displaystyle S^{0}} shows that this action is holomorphic. The quotient C × H / Γ n {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} /\Gamma _{n}} {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} \times \mathbb {H} /\Gamma _{n}} is called Inoue surface of type S + . {\displaystyle S^{+}.} {\displaystyle S^{+}.}

Of type S−

Inoue surfaces of type S − {\displaystyle S^{-}} {\displaystyle S^{-}} are defined in the same way as for S+, but two eigenvalues a, b of φ acting on Z 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} ^{2}} {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} ^{2}} have opposite sign and satisfy ab = −1. Since a square of such an endomorphism defines an Inoue surface of type S+, an Inoue surface of type S− has an unramified double cover of type S+.

Parabolic and hyperbolic Inoue surfaces

Parabolic and hyperbolic Inoue surfaces are Kodaira class VII surfaces defined by Iku Nakamura in 1984.[6] They are not solvmanifolds. These surfaces have positive second Betti number. They have spherical shells, and can be deformed into a blown-up Hopf surface.

Parabolic Inoue surfaces contain a cycle of rational curves with 0 self-intersection and an elliptic curve. They are a particular case of Enoki surfaces which have a cycle of rational curves with zero self-intersection but without elliptic curve. Half-Inoue surfaces contain a cycle C of rational curves and are a quotient of a hyperbolic Inoue surface with two cycles of rational curves.

Hyperbolic Inoue surfaces are class VII0 surfaces with two cycles of rational curves.[7] Parabolic and hyperbolic surfaces are particular cases of minimal surfaces with global spherical shells (GSS) also called Kato surfaces. All these surfaces may be constructed by non invertible contractions.[8]
