Extract

It is a classical result (5) that the algebraic surfaces which admit a continuous group of birational self-transformations, or automorphisms, and which are neither rational nor scrollar, belong to one or other of two families: (i) the elliptic surfaces; these possess an elliptic group of ∞1 automorphisms; (ii) the hyperelliptic surfaces of rank 1 (which, for brevity, we shall call hyperelliptic); these possess a completely transitive permutable group of ∞2 automorphisms. The chief properties of the two classes of surface, in so far as they are required in the present work, are described in § 1.
