Çengel, Adalet
In this thesis, we produce Lefschetz fibrations over the two-sphere which have smaller slope compared to known examples. The study is motivated by a conjecture of Hain saying that every Lefschetz fibration over the two-sphere with slope $lambda_f$ satisfies the slope inequality $4-4/g leq lambda_f$. Monden recently constructed Lefschetz fibrations with slope which violate this lower bound. In the thesis, we establish new examples having slope less than these. The total spaces of our Lefschetz fibrations are simply-connected. Finally, we try to obtain Lefschetz fibrations with even smaller slope.

The maximum opposite angulation for mesh construction
Cheng, WJ; Sorguç, Arzu; Shinoda, J; Hagiwara, I (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-02-01)
In this paper, a new approach, "the Maximum Opposite Angulation (MOA for short)" algorithm, for the construction of a triangular mesh from a set of unorganized data points is proposed. A topological judgment algorithm is coupled to the MOA algorithm to avoid holes and/or intersections that can be encountered on the reconstructed surface. The MOA algorithm is based on the idea of "the list," which presets a uniformity to the initial data set to fulfill the task of forming "the good mesh architecture" which i...
A new class of quaternary LCZ sequence sets
Özbudak, Ferruh; SAYGI, ZÜLFÜKAR (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2012-02-01)
In this article, we present a construction of low correlation zone (LCZ) sequence sets. This construction gives a new class of quaternary LCZ sequence sets. Furthermore, we observe a generalization of the LCZ sequence sets in Kim et al. (IEEE Trans Inform Theory 52(10):4607-4616, 2006) by using an orthogonal transformation. The obtained LCZ sequence sets are optimal with respect to the Tang, Fan and Matsufuji bound.
On the moduli of surfaces admitting genus 2 fibrations
Onsiper, H; Tekinel, C (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2002-12-01)
We investigate the structure of the components of the moduli space Of Surfaces of general type, which parametrize surfaces admitting nonsmooth genus 2 fibrations of nonalbanese type, over curves of genus g(b) greater than or equal to 2.
On symplectic quotients of K3 surfaces
Cinkir, Z; Onsiper, H (Elsevier BV, 2000-12-18)
In this note, we construct generalized Shioda-Inose structures on K3 surfaces using cyclic covers and almost functoriality of Shioda-Inose structures with respect to normal subgroups of a given group of symplectic automorphisms.
Generalized Shioda-Inose structures on K3 surfaces
Onsiper, H; Sertoz, S (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1999-04-01)
In this note, we study the action of finite groups of symplectic automorphisms on K3 surfaces which yield quotients birational to generalized Kummer surfaces. For each possible group, we determine the Picard number of the K3 surface admitting such an action and for singular K3 surfaces we show the uniqueness of the associated abelian surface.
