Abstract

Quasi-bundles are morphisms from an algebraic surface onto a curve having all smooth fibres connected and pairwise isomorphic, and whose only singular fibres are multiplies of smooth curves. LetF denote de general fiber of a quasi-bundle map defined on a surfaceS. This paper focuses on the relationship between the divisibility properties ofF inH 2 (S, ℤ)/(torsion) and the torsion ofH 2 (S, ℤ).
