Lines on K3 quartic surfaces in characteristic 2

Algebraic Geometry 2022-03-15 v2

Abstract

We prove that a K3 quartic surface defined over a field of characteristic 2 can contain at most 68 lines. If it contains 68 lines, then it is projectively equivalent to a member of a 1-dimensional family found by Rams and Sch\"utt.
