Abstract

Let X be a nonsingular complex projective surface. The Weyl and Zariski chambers give two interesting decompositions of the big cone of X. Following the ideas of [T. Bauer and M. Funke, Weyl and Zariski chambers on K3 surfaces, Forum Math. 24 2012, 3, 609–625] and [S. A. Rams and T. Szemberg, When are Zariski chambers numerically determined?, Forum Math. 28 2016, 6, 1159–1166], we study these two decompositions and determine when a Weyl chamber is contained in the interior of a Zariski chamber and vice versa. We also determine when a Weyl chamber can intersect non-trivially with a Zariski chamber.
