Hyperbolicity of surfaces modulo rational and elliptic curves

Caroline Galt Grant

Vol. 139 (1989), No. 2, 241–249
Abstract

Let X be a smooth compact complex surface of general type and let D be the union of all rational and elliptic curves in X. If there exist a complex torus T of dimension 2 and a nontrivial holomorphic map X T whose image contains no elliptic curves then X is hyperbolic modulo D. In particular, if X has irregularity h0(X,ΩX1) 2 and its Albanese variety is not isogenous to a product of elliptic curves then X is hyperbolic modulo D.
