Surfaces with rational double points

Let $S\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$ a surface fibered in conics over a field. Assume that $S$ has a single non reduced fiber $F$ with two points of type $A_1$ on it. Blowing-up the two points and ...

Singularities of surfaces fibered in rational curves

Let $S$ be a projective surface with a morphism $S\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^1$ whose fibers are either smooth $\mathbb{P}^1$'s or the union of two smooth $\mathbb{P}^1$'s intersecting in a point. ...

singularities of the dual variety of a surface

I am looking for a proof/reference of the following simple fact, which I think it holds true. Let $S\subset \mathbb{P}^n$ be a surface embedded by a very ample linear system. Then I know that the ...

Infinitesimal deformations of a singular projective surface

Let $X$ be a normal projective surface with just two singular points $x_1,x_2\in X$, where $X$ has rational quotient singularities. Assume that both the singularities in $x_1$ and in $x_2$ admit a ...
