Finiteness theorems for K3 surfaces over arbitrary fields

Algebraic Geometry 2019-05-14 v3 Number Theory

Abstract

Over an algebraically closed field, various finiteness results are known regarding the automorphism group of a K3 surface and the action of the automorphisms on the Picard lattice. We formulate and prove versions of these results over arbitrary base fields, and give examples illustrating how behaviour can differ from the algebraically closed case.
