Abstract

We prove that every K3 surface with automorphism group (Z/2Z)2(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})^2 admits an explicit birational model as a double sextic surface. This model is canonical for Picard number greater than 10. For Picard number greater than 9, the K3 surfaces in question possess a second birational model, in the form of a projective quartic hypersurface, generalizing the Inose quartic.
