In mathematics, a cubic surface is a surface in 3 dimensional space defined by one polynomial equation of degree 3. Cubic surfaces are fundamental examples in algebraic geometry. The theory is simplified by working in projective space rather than affine space, and so cubic surfaces are generally considered in projective 3 space The theory also becomes more uniform by focusing on surfaces over the complex numbers rather than the real numbers; note that a complex surface has real dimension 4. A simple example is the Fermat cubic surface

in Many properties of cubic surfaces hold more generally for del Pezzo surfaces.

A central feature of smooth cubic surfaces X over an algebraically closed field is that they are all rational, as shown by Alfred Clebsch in 1866. That is, there is a one to one correspondence defined by rational functions between the projective plane minus a lower dimensional subset and X minus a lower dimensional subset. More generally, every irreducible cubic surface (possibly singular) over an algebraically closed field is rational unless it is the projective cone over a cubic curve. In this respect, cubic surfaces are much simpler than smooth surfaces of degree at least 4 in , which are never rational. In characteristic zero, smooth surfaces of degree at least 4 in are not even uniruled. More strongly, Clebsch showed that every smooth cubic surface in over an algebraically closed field is isomorphic to the blow up of at 6 points. As a result, every smooth cubic surface over the complex numbers is diffeomorphic to the connected sum , where the minus sign refers to a change of orientation. Conversely, the blow up of at 6 points is isomorphic to a cubic surface if and only if the points are in general position, meaning that no three points lie on a line and all 6 do not lie on a conic. As a complex manifold (or an algebraic variety), the surface depends on the arrangement of those 6 points.

Most proofs of rationality for cubic surfaces start by finding a line on the surface. (In the context of projective geometry, a line in is isomorphic to .) More precisely, Arthur Cayley and George Salmon showed in 1849 that every smooth cubic surface over an algebraically closed field contains exactly 27 lines. This is a distinctive feature of cubics: a smooth quadric (degree 2) surface is covered by a continuous family of lines, while most surfaces of degree at least 4 in contain no lines. Another useful technique for finding the 27 lines involves Schubert calculus which computes the number of lines using the intersection theory of the Grassmannian of lines on
As the coefficients of a smooth complex cubic surface are varied, the 27 lines move continuously. As a result, a closed loop in the family of smooth cubic surfaces determines a permutation of the 27 lines. The group of permutations of the 27 lines arising this way is called the monodromy group of the family of cubic surfaces. A remarkable 19th century discovery was that the monodromy group is neither trivial nor the whole symmetric group ; it is a group of order 51840, acting transitively on the set of lines. This graph was analyzed in the 19th century using subgraphs such as the Schläfli double six configuration. The complementary graph (with an edge whenever two lines are disjoint) is known as the Schläfli graph. Many problems about cubic surfaces can be solved using the combinatorics of the root system. For example, the 27 lines can be identified with the weights of the fundamental representation of the Lie group The possible sets of singularities that can occur on a cubic surface can be described in terms of subsystems of the root system. One explanation for this connection is that the lattice arises as the orthogonal complement to the anticanonical class in the Picard group , with its intersection form (coming from the intersection theory of curves on a surface). For a smooth complex cubic surface, the Picard lattice can also be identified with the cohomology group
An Eckardt point is a point where 3 of the 27 lines meet. Most cubic surfaces have no Eckardt point, but such points occur on a codimension 1 subset of the family of all smooth cubic surfaces. Given an identification between a cubic surface on X and the blow up of at 6 points in general position, the 27 lines on X can be viewed as: the 6 exceptional curves created by blowing up, the birational transforms of the 15 lines through pairs of the 6 points in , and the birational transforms of the 6 conics containing all but one of the 6 points. A given cubic surface can be viewed as a blow up of in more than one way (in fact, in 72 different ways), and so a description as a blow up does not reveal the symmetry among all 27 of the lines. The relation between cubic surfaces and the root system generalizes to a relation between all del Pezzo surfaces and root systems. This is one of many ADE classifications in mathematics. Pursuing these analogies, Vera Serganova and Alexei Skorobogatov gave a direct geometric relation between cubic surfaces and the Lie group
In physics, the 27 lines can be identified with the 27 possible charges of M theory on a six dimensional torus (6 momenta; 15 membranes; 6 fivebranes) and the group E6 then naturally acts as the U duality group. This map between del Pezzo surfaces and M theory on tori is known as mysterious duality.

In contrast to the complex case, the space of smooth cubic surfaces over the real numbers is not connected in the classical topology (based on the topology of R). Its connected components (in other words, the classification of smooth real cubic surfaces up to isotopy) were determined by Ludwig Schläfli (1863), Felix Klein (1865), and H. G. Zeuthen (1875). Namely, there are 5 isotopy classes of smooth real cubic surfaces X in , distinguished by the topology of the space of real points The space of real points is diffeomorphic to either , or the disjoint union of and the 2 sphere, where denotes the connected sum of r copies of the real projective plane Correspondingly, the number of real lines contained in X is 27, 15, 7, 3, or 3. A smooth real cubic surface is rational over R if and only if its space of real points is connected, hence in the first four of the previous five cases. The average number of real lines on X is when the defining polynomial for X is sampled at random from the Gaussian ensemble induced by the Bombieri inner product.

Two smooth cubic surfaces are isomorphic as algebraic varieties if and only if they are equivalent by some linear automorphism of Geometric invariant theory gives a moduli space of cubic surfaces, with one point for each isomorphism class of smooth cubic surfaces. This moduli space has dimension 4. More precisely, it is an open subset of the weighted projective space P(12345), by Salmon and Clebsch (1860). In particular, it is a rational 4 fold.

The lines on a cubic surface X over an algebraically closed field can be described intrinsically, without reference to the embedding of X in : they are exactly the (−1) curves on X, meaning the curves isomorphic to that have self intersection −1. Also, the classes of lines in the Picard lattice of X (or equivalently the divisor class group) are exactly the elements u of Pic(X) such that and (This uses that the restriction of the hyperplane line bundle O(1) on to X is the anticanonical line bundle , by the adjunction formula.) For any projective variety X, the cone of curves means the convex cone spanned by all curves in X (in the real vector space of 1 cycles modulo numerical equivalence, or in the homology group if the base field is the complex numbers). For a cubic surface, the cone of curves is spanned by the 27 lines. In particular, it is a rational polyhedral cone in with a large symmetry group, the Weyl group of There is a similar description of the cone of curves for any del Pezzo surface.

A smooth cubic surface X over a field k which is not algebraically closed need not be rational over k. As an extreme case, there are smooth cubic surfaces over the rational numbers Q (or the p adic numbers ) with no rational points, in which case X is certainly not rational. If X(k) is nonempty, then X is at least unirational over k, by Beniamino Segre and János Kollár. For k infinite, unirationality implies that the set of k rational points is Zariski dense in X. The absolute Galois group of k permutes the 27 lines of X over the algebraic closure of k (through some subgroup of the Weyl group of ). If some orbit of this action consists of disjoint lines, then X is the blow up of a "simpler" del Pezzo surface over k at a closed point. Otherwise, X has Picard number 1. (The Picard group of X is a subgroup of the geometric Picard group .) In the latter case, Segre showed that X is never rational. More strongly, Yuri Manin proved a birational rigidity statement: two smooth cubic surfaces with Picard number 1 over a perfect field k are birational if and only if they are isomorphic. For example, these results give many cubic surfaces over Q that are unirational but not rational.

In contrast to smooth cubic surfaces which contain 27 lines, singular cubic surfaces contain fewer lines. Moreover, they can be classified by the type of singularity which arises in their normal form. These singularities are classified using Dynkin diagrams.
