Real Enriques Surfaces

This is the first attempt of a systematic study of real Enriques surfaces culminating in their classification up to deformation. Simple explicit topological invariants are elaborated for identifying the deformation classes of real Enriques surfaces. Some

Introduction

Enriques surfaces playa special role in the theory of surfaces, both algebraic and analytic. They form a separate class in the Enriques-Kodaira classification of minimal surfaces: it is one of the four classes of Kodaira dimension 0 (the three others are abelian, hyperelliptic, and K3-surfaces). For an algebraist, a particular feature of Enriques surfaces is that they are irrational and have no holomorphic differential forms. For a topologist, they are the simplest examples of smooth 4-manifolds with even intersection form and signature not divisible by 16. The fundamental group of an Enriques surface is Z2. Its universal covering is a K3-surface and, vice versa, the orbit space of a fixed point free holomorphic involution on a K3-surface is an Enriques surface. To visualize an Enriques surface one can pick a nonsingular curve D C pI X pI of bidegree (4, 4) invariant with respect to 8 X 8, where 8: pI -t pI
