We show that if a meromorphic function of degree at most four on a real algebraic curve of an arbitrary genus has only real critical points then it is conjugate to a real meromorphic function after a suitable projective automorphism of the image.
We compare the smooth and deformation equivalence of actions of finite groups on K3-surfaces by holomorphic and anti-holomorphic transformations. We prove that the number of deformation classes is finite and, in a number of cases, establish the expected coincidence of the two equivalence relations. More precisely, in these cases we show that an action is determined by the induced action in the homology. On the other hand, we construct two examples to show that, first, in general the homological type of an action does not even determine its topological type, and second, that K3-surfaces $X$ and $\bar X$ with the same Klein action do not need to be equivariantly deformation equivalent even if the induced action on $H^{2,0}(X)$ is real, i.e., reduces to multiplication by $\pm 1$.
The survey gives an overview of the achievements in topology of real algebraic varieties in the direction initiated in the early 70th by V.I.Arnold and V.A.Rokhlin. We make an attempt to systematize the principal results in the subject. After an exposition of general tools and results, special attention is paid to surfaces and curves on surfaces.
We prove that the moduli space of empty real Enriques surfaces (and, thus, the moduli space of compact orientable 4-dimensional Einstein manifolds whose universal covering is a K3-surface and π_1(E) = Z/2 x Z/2) is connected. The proof is based on a systematic study of real elliptic pencils and gives explicit models of all empty real Enriques surfaces.
A correspondence between different $Pin$-type structures on a compact surface and quadratic (linear) forms on its homology is constructed. Addition of structures is defined and expressed in terms of these quadratic forms.
