Abstract

We study mirror symmetry of families of elliptic K3 surfaces with elliptic fibers of type E6, E7E_6,~E_7 and E8E_8. We consider a moduli space T\mathsf{T} of the mirror K3 surfaces enhanced with the choice of differential forms. We show that coordinates on T\mathsf{T} are given by the ring of quasi modular forms in two variables, with modular groups adapted to the fiber type. We furthermore introduce an algebraic group G\mathsf{G} which acts on T\mathsf{T} from the right and construct its Lie algebra Lie(G)\mathrm{Lie}(\mathsf{G}). We prove that the extended Lie algebra generated by Lie(G)\mathrm{Lie}(\mathsf{G}) together with modular vector fields on T\mathsf{T} is isomorphic to sl2(C)sl2(C)\mathrm{sl}_2(\mathbb{C})\oplus\mathrm{sl}_2(\mathbb{C}).
