Abstract

We study the relation between certain local and global numerical invariants of a projective surface given by the Stückrad–Vogel self-intersection cycle. In the smooth case we find a relation between the degrees of the tangent, the secant and the first polar variety which generalizes classical relations between the so-called elementary invariants of surfaces. For singular surfaces this relation involves also the contributions of singularities to the self-intersection cycle. In order to make the formula really effective for singular surfaces, we need to describe the movable part of the self-intersection cycle on the singular locus. This is done explicitly for a particular class of non-normal del Pezzo surfaces.
