It is the first time that these objects are discussed from the points of view of algebraic geometry as well as group theory. The book also includes various open problems and conjectures related to these surfaces. Beauville surfaces are a class of rigid regular surfaces of general type, which can be described in a purely algebraic combinatoric way. They play an important role in different fields of mathematics like algebraic geometry, group theory and number theory. The notion of Beauville surface was introduced by Fabrizio Catanese in 2000 and, after the first systematic study of these surfaces by Ingrid Bauer, Fabrizio Catanese and Fritz Grunewald, there has been an increasing interest in the subject. These proceedings reflect the topics of the lectures presented during the workshop ‘Beauville Surfaces and Groups 2012’, held at Newcastle University, UK in June 2012. This conference brought together, for the first time, experts of different fields of mathematics interested in Beauville surfaces.Springer Proceedings in Mathematics & Statistics,2194-1009 ;123Algebraic geometryGroup theoryNumber theoryAlgebraic Geometryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M11019Group Theory and Generalizationshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M11078Number Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M25001Algebraic geometry.Group theory.Number theory.Algebraic Geometry.Group Theory and Generalizations.Number Theory.516.3/52516.35Bauer Ingridedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGarion Shellyedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtVdovina Alinaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299765003321Beauville surfaces and groups1522544UNINA
