Abstract
LetX be a minimal surface of general type and M (X) the set of equivalence classes of complex structures on the differentiable manifold underlyingX; denoting byM x the dimension of M(X) at [X], the point corresponding to the complex structure ofX we consider the problem of finding an upper bound forM x in terms of the basic numerical invariants ofX. The main result is the Castelunovo's bound:M x≤Pg(X)+2q(X) for certain irregular surfaces. We also generalize the above bound to an arbitrary dimension.
