Some surfaces with maximal Picard number
Abstract
For a smooth complex projective variety, the rank of the N\'eron-Severi group is bounded by the Hodge number h1,1. Varieties with rk NS = h1,1 have interesting properties, but are rather sparse, particularly in dimension 2. We discuss in this note a number of examples, in particular those constructed from curves with special Jacobians.
