Abstract:
A log del Pezzo surface is a normal projective surface S defined over the field of complex numbers, such that S has at most quotient singularities and -K_S is ample, where K_S denotes the canonical divisor. The main result of this work is the following theorem: \proclaimit{Theorem.}{Let S be a log del Pezzo surface. Then the fundamental group of the space of smooth points of S is finite.} We also give a quite precise description of the singularities of S when S has Picard group of rank 1.
