Unirational quasi-hyperelliptic surfaces in characteristic five
Abstract
As a generalization of a quasi-elliptic surface, there is a quasi-hyperelliptic surface, a nonsingular projective surface which has a fibration structure whose general fiber is a quasi-hyperelliptic curve ($=$ singular hyperelliptic curve with one cuspidal singular point) of genus $(p-1)/2$ in characteristic $p \ge 5$. In this paper, we consider unirational quasi-hyperelliptic surfaces in characteristic $5$, and classify singular fibers and give a formula for the arithmetic genus and the self-intersection number of the canonical divisor. As a corollary, we classify rational quasi-hyperelliptic surfaces by determining the combinations of singular fibers, the defining equations and sections.
