Stable pair compactification of moduli of K3 surfaces of degree 2

Algebraic Geometry 2023-02-15 v3

Abstract

We prove that the universal family of polarized K3 surfaces of degree 2 can be extended to a flat family of stable slc pairs (X,ϵR)(X,\epsilon R) over the toroidal compactification associated to the Coxeter fan. One-parameter degenerations of K3 surfaces in this family are described by integral-affine structures on a sphere with 24 singularities.
