Abstract

Constant cycle curves on a K3 surface XX over C\mathbb{C} have been introduced by Huybrechts (2014) as curves whose points all define the same class in the Chow group. In this paper we study correspondences ZX×XZ \subseteq X\times X over C\mathbb{C} acting on the group \mboxccc(X)\mbox{ccc}(X) of cycles generated by irreducible constant cycle curves. We construct for any n2n\geq 2 and any very ample line bundle LL a locus Zn(L)X×XZ_n(L)\subseteq X\times X of expected dimension 22, which yields a correspondence that acts on \mboxccc(X)\mbox{ccc}(X), when it has the expected dimension. We provide examples of Zn(L)Z_n(L) for low nn and exhibit one correspondence different from Zn(L)Z_n(L) acting on \mboxccc(X)\mbox{ccc}(X).
