How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T23080556 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
Clebsch diagonal surfaces
Clebsch diagonal surfaces are classical 19th-century algebraic surfaces in projective three-space, famous as the first explicit smooth cubic surface with all 27 lines defined over the real numbers.
-
B.
Rational Quadratic Forms
Rational Quadratic Forms is a classic monograph in number theory that systematically develops the arithmetic theory of quadratic forms over the rational numbers.
-
C.
Steiner surface
The Steiner surface is a classical quartic algebraic surface in projective three-space, notable for being a singular model of the real projective plane studied extensively in 19th-century geometry.
-
D.
Ellipsoids
"Ellipsoids" is a sculptural series by German artist Isa Genzken that explores geometric abstraction through elongated, aerodynamic forms often associated with modern architecture and industrial design.
-
E.
Fermat surface
A Fermat surface is an algebraic surface in projective space defined by a homogeneous equation where each variable appears with the same exponent, generalizing the notion of Fermat curves to higher dimensions.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
