Abstract
Beauville surfaces are a class of complex surfaces defined by letting a finite group
G act on a product of Riemann surfaces. These surfaces possess many attractive
geometric properties several of which are dictated by properties of the group G.
In this survey we discuss the p-groups that may be used in this way. En route we
discuss several open problems, questions and conjectures.
