This collection of surveys and research articles explores a
fascinating class of varieties: Beauville surfaces. It is the first
time that these objects are discussed from the points of view of
algebraic geometry as well as group theory. The book also includes
various open problems and conjectures related to these surfaces.
Beauville surfaces are a class of rigid regular surfaces of general
type, which can be described in a purely algebraic combinatoric
way. They play an important role in different fields of mathematics
like algebraic geometry, group theory and number theory. The notion
of Beauville surface was introduced by Fabrizio Catanese in 2000
and after the first systematic study of these surfaces by Ingrid
Bauer, Fabrizio Catanese and Fritz Grunewald, there has been an
increasing interest in the subject. These proceedings reflect the
topics of the lectures presented during the workshop 'Beauville
surfaces and groups 2012', held at Newcastle University, UK in June
2012. This conference brought together, for the first time, experts
of different fields of mathematics interested in Beauville
surfaces.
