Odd and even fake quadrics isogenous to a product
Abstract
A ℚ-homology quadric is a smooth compact complex surface which has the same ℚ-homology as a quadric surface, that is, the product of two $2$-dimensional spheres. It is called fake if it is minimal and not rational. Among them are the fake quadrics which are isogenous to a product of complex curves. In this paper, we determine the parity of the intersection forms of all fake quadrics isogenous to a product of unmixed type. In particular, we show that there are fake quadrics with odd intersection forms.
