Singularities of normal quartic surfaces III (char=2, non-supersingular)

Algebraic Geometry 2023-11-08 v1

Abstract

We show that the maximal number of singular points of a normal quartic surface XPK3X \subset \mathbb{P}^3_K defined over an algebraically closed field KK of characteristic 2 is at most 12, if the minimal resolution of XX is not a supersingular K3 surface. We also provide a family of explicit examples, valid in any characteristic.
