Abstract

We compute equations for the Coughlan’s family of Godeaux surfaces with torsion $Z /2$ , which we call $Z /2$ -Godeaux surfaces, and we show that it is (at most) 7 dimensional. We classify all non-rational KSBA degenerations $W$ of $Z /2$ -Godeaux surfaces with one Wahl singularity, showing that $W$ is birational to particular either Enriques surfaces, or $D_{2, n}$ elliptic surfaces, with $n = 3, 4$ or $6$ . We present examples for all possibilities in the first case, and for $n = 3, 4$ in the second.
