Abstract

A fake projective plane is a compact complex surface (a compact complex manifold of dimension 2) with the same Betti numbers as the complex projective plane, but not isomorphic to the complex projective plane. As was shown by Mumford, there exists at least one such surface.In this paper we prove the existence of a fake projective plane which is birational to a cyclic cover of degree 7 of a Dolgachev surface.
