How does one know the following surface contains no other lines?

A line is given by a pair of equations: \begin{equation*} a_1 x_1 +a_2 x_2+a_3 x_3 + a_4 x_4=0, \qquad b_1 x_1 + b_2 x_2 + b_3 x_3 + b_4 x_4=0. \end{equation*} Suppose this line is on $X$. If the mi …

Smooth real points on the intersection of a quadric and a cubic

Let $C$, $Q \in \mathbb{R}[x_0,\dots,x_n]$ be homogeneous of degrees $3$ and $2$ respectively. Consider the scheme $V$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ defined by $$ V \; : \; C=Q=0$$. Suppose $V$ is integral (ove …

Certain double covers of cubic surfaces

Let $S$ be a smooth cubic surface in $\mathbb{P}^3$. I would like to understand that variety $V$ that parametrizes lines $\ell$ such that $\ell \cdot S=3P$ with $P \in S$. At any point $P \in S$, let …

Rational points on surfaces of general type

A Theorem of Faltings states that any proper subvariety of an abelian variety has finitely many rational points provided this subvariety does not contain a translate of any non-trivial proper abelian …
