Abstract
We mainly give a numerical condition to ensure the finite generation of the effective monoids of some smooth projective rational surfaces. These surfaces are constructed from the blow-up of any fixed Hirzebruch surface at some special configurations of ordinary points. Under this numerical condition, we determine explicitly the list of all (-1) and (-2)-curves. In particular, we complete a result obtained by Harbourne (Duke Math J 52(1):129–148, 1985) and another result obtained by the third author (C R Math 338(11):873–878, 2004). Moreover, the Cox rings of these surfaces are finitely generated. Our ground field is assumed to be algebraically closed of any characteristic.
