Higher Chow cycles on a family of Kummer surfaces

Algebraic Geometry 2024-07-19 v4

Abstract

We construct a collection of families of higher Chow cycles of type (2,1)(2,1) on a 2-dimensional family of Kummer surfaces, and prove that for a very general member, they generate a subgroup of rank 18\ge 18 in the indecomposable part of the higher Chow group. Construction of the cycles uses a finite group action on the family, and the proof of their linear independence uses Picard-Fuchs differential operators.
