On the cohomology of regular surfaces isogenous to a product of curves with $\chi(\mathcal{O}_S)=2$

Abstract

Let $S$ be a surface isogenous to a product of curves of unmixed type. After presenting several results useful to study the cohomology of $S$ we prove a structure theorem for the cohomology of regular surfaces isogenous to a product of unmixed type with $\chi (\mathcal{O}_S)=2$. In particular we found two families of surfaces of general type with maximal Picard number.
