I am currently doing some research on surfaces of general type and I need some results from Bogomolov's paper:

Bogomolov, F. A. Families of curves on a surface of general type. Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 236 (1977), no. 5, 1041–1044. 14J25 (14J05). (MR0457450).

I've been looking all over the internet but there is no PDF or online form of this paper. I went to all my local libraries and all I found was a version in Russian that was so old (and so poorly maintained) that some parts where not even readable (I don't speak russian anyway).

Is there a place where I can find this paper? I'll be happy to pay for it if necessary!

  • $\begingroup$ The MR item you refer to gives a reference to the English translation: Soviet Math. Dokl. 236 (1977), no. 5, 1294–1297 (1978). It should be in many libraries and you should be able to get a copy in PDF. You can also ask Bogomolov directly. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I know there's an English version, but I was not able to find it in my area, I went to 8 different universities/libraries and none had the English version. One had the Russian version but it was in such terrible state it was not even readable. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ I currently live in Colombia, so that's not an option for me. I wasn't able to find the PDF online, not even the Russian version. I might try to contact Bogomolov directly. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Your local library may contact any library that has a print copy of the Journal and they would scan it and send it by e-mail. For example, the Instituto de Matemáticas has this journal according to the page: biblioteca.matem.unam.mx/revistas/catalogo-de-revistas/… (it is in volume 18). $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ I have already done that, not with the Instituto de Matemáticas in Mexico, but with some other universities my local library has contact with. It's been more than a month since I made that request but they haven't answered. At this point I have more hope in sending an email to Bogomolov $\endgroup$
