The sections of mini mal height of E are in correspondence with the 240 exceptional curves on X . A natural question arises when studying the configuration of those curve s : If a point of X is contained in « many » exceptional curves\, it is to rsion on its fiber on E? In 2005\, Kuwata proved for del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2 (where there is 56 exceptional curves) that if « many » equals 4 or more\, then yes. With Rosa Winter\, we prove that for del Pezzo surfac es of degree 1\, if « many » equals 9 or more\, then yes. Additionally we find counterexamples where a torsion point lies at the intersection lies a t the intersection of 7 exceptional curves.\n\n \n DTSTART:20230309T153000Z DTEND:20230309T163000Z LOCATION:Room 1104\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Julie Desjardins (University of Toronto) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/julie-desjardins-universi ty-toronto-346602 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
