Forms of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 5 and 6
Alexandr Zaitsev
Abstract
In this paper we obtain necessary and sufficient condition for existence of del Pezzo surfaces of degree $5$ and $6$ over a field $K$ with a prescribed action of absolute Galois group $\text{Gal} ( K^{\text{sep}}/K)$ on the graph of $(-1)$-curves. Also we compute automorphism groups of del Pezzo surfaces of degree $5$ over arbitrary fields.
