Abstract:
We consider surfaces whose points are the lines on the real
three-dimensional varieties of degree 3. These surfaces are called Fano
surfaces. This paper deals with finding the topological types, that is,
a topological classification, of real Fano surfaces. Moreover, we prove that the
equivariant topological type of the corresponding complex Fano surface with
the involution of complex conjugation determines the rigid isotopy class of the
corresponding real three-dimensional cubic.
