On the effective cone of algebraic surfaces
Abstract:
The effective cone of an algebraic surface $X$
may contain infinitely many curves
of negative self intersection.
We show that at most $\max\{\rho(X)-1, 2\rho(X)-4 \}$ of these curves
can have trivial intersection with a given nontrivial
nef line bundle $L$.
Here $\rho(X)$ denotes the Picard number of $X$, i.e.,
the rank of the N\'eron-Severi group $\NS(X)$.
We end this article with upper bounds
for the number of reducible fibers of
surface fibrations over curves.
Keywords: Reducible fibre, algebraic surface, effective cone, nef line bundle
