Modular congruence criterion for non-unirational surfaces
Let be a surface satisfying the projective-resolution and congruence assumptions, and let be a fixed minimal smooth model. Suppose that for some , a subgroup , and a positive integer with , there is a newform satisfying for every . Modular congruence criterion. If this condition holds, then is birationally equivalent to a smooth surface with . In particular, is not unirational. The criterion is intended as a point-counting consistency check for identifying surfaces whose smooth models have nontrivial holomorphic -forms; the supplied text does not establish its status beyond this asserted implication.
