This volume gives two new methods for constructing $p$-elementary Hopf algebra orders over the valuation ring $R$ of a local field $K$ containing the $p$-adic rational numbers. One method constructs Hopf orders using isogenies of commutative degree 2 polynomial formal groups of dimension $n$, and is built on a systematic study of such formal group laws. The other method uses an exponential generalization of a 1992 construction of Greither. Both constructions yield Raynaud orders as iterated extensions of rank $p$ Hopf algebras; the exponential method obtains all Raynaud orders whose...

This work provides a unified way of looking at the apparently sporadic Weyl groups connected with the classical algebraic geometry of surfaces from the viewpoint of the recently established Minimal Model Program for 3-folds (Mori's Program). Matsuki explores the correspondence between the algebraic objects (the Weyl chambers, roots, reflections) and geometric objects (the ample cones of minimal models, extremal rays, flops) for the Weyl groups appearing with rational double points, Kodaira-type degenerations of elliptic curves and K3 surfaces. A complete table for all the extremal rays of...
