Abstract

In this paper the birational surgeries that are necessary to regularize the “addition” of pairs of points to an algebraic surface are described. The pattern of the description is the addition of points to an algebraic surface, which requires the single blow-up of a smooth subvariety, namely, the diagonal in the direct product of the surface by itself. The complete description of the blow-ups leads to a description of the geometry (the ring of algebraic cycles) and the numerical invariants, i.e., the products of the Chern classes of the standard vector bundles on order 4 Hilbert schemes of algebraic surfaces.
