The present paper proves that finite symplectic groups of automorphisms of hyperk\"ahler fourfolds deformation equivalent to the Hilbert scheme of two points on a $K3$ surface are contained in the simple group $Co_1$. Then we give an…
If an automorphism of a projective K3 surface with Picard number 2 is of infinite order, then the automorphism corresponds to a solution of Pell equation. In this paper, by solving this equation, we determine all Salem polynomials of…
We explicitly find an equation and a projective embedding of the Kummer surface associated to the Jacobian of a curve of genus 2 given by an equation of the form y^2 + h(x)y = f(x) over an arbitrary ground field as well as several maps that…
Let $S$ be a {\em Todorov surface}, {\it i.e.}, a minimal smooth surface of general type with $q=0$ and $p_g=1$ having an involution $i$ such that $S/i$ is birational to a $K3$ surface and such that the bicanonical map of $S$ is composed…
We classify normal supersingular K3 surfaces Y with total Milnor number 20 in characteristic p, where p is an odd prime that does not divide the discriminant of the Dynkin type of the rational double points on Y.
The purpose of this note is to prove that the symplectic mapping class groups of many K3 surfaces are infinitely generated. Our proof makes no use of any Floer-theoretic machinery but instead follows the approach of Kronheimer and uses…
A specialization of a K3 surface with Picard rank one to a K3 with rank two defines a vanishing class of order two in the Brauer group of the general K3 surface. We give the B-field invariants of this class. We apply this to the K3 double…
Every indefinite binary form occurs as the Picard lattice of some K3-surface. The group of its isometries, or automorphs, coincides with the automorphism group of the K3-surface, but only up to finite groups. The classical theory of…
We study the class of 2-dimensional affine k-domains R satisfying ML(R) = k, where k is an arbitrary field of characteristic zero. In particular, we obtain the following result: Let R be a localization of a polynomial ring in finitely many…
We show that there is a good notion of irreducible sympelectic varieties of $\mathrm{K3}^{[n]}$-type over an arbitrary field of characteristic zero or $p > n + 1$. Then we construct mixed characteristic moduli spaces for these varieties.…
For K\"ahler K3 surfaces we consider Kulikov models of type III tamed by a symplectic form. Our main result shows that the generic smooth fiber admits an almost toric fibration over the intersection complex, which inherits a natural nodal…
We show that the Mathieu groups $M_{22}$ and $M_{11}$ can act on the supersingular $K3$ surface with Artin invariant 1 in characteristic 11 as symplectic automorphisms. More generally we show that all maximal subgroups of the Mathieu group…
Given a finite field k of characteristic at least 5, we show that the Tate conjecture holds for K3 surfaces defined over the algebraic closure of k if and only if there are only finitely many K3 surfaces over each finite extension of k.
In the context of K3 mirror symmetry, the Greene-Plesser orbifolding method constructs a family of K3 surfaces, the mirror of quartic hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$, starting from a special one-parameter family of K3 varieties known as the…
We construct here many families of K3 surfaces that one can obtain as quotients of algebraic surfaces by some subgroups of the rank four complex reflection groups. We find in total 15 families with at worst $ADE$--singularities. In…
We construct and study curves with low H-constants on abelian and K3 surfaces. Using the Kummer $(16_{6})$-configurations on Jacobian surfaces and some $(16_{10})$-configurations of curves on $(1,3)$-polarized Abelian surfaces, we obtain…
In any characteristic different from 2 and 5, Kond\=o gave an example of a K3 surface with a purely non-symplectic automorphism of order 50. The surface was explicitly given as a double plane branched along a smooth sextic curve. In this…
We prove that there exists a one to one correspondence between smooth quartic surfaces with an inner Galois point and Eisenstein $K3$ surfaces of type $(4, 3)$. Furthermore we characterize the quartic surface with 8 (the maximum number)…
We study Kummer varieties attached to 2-coverings of abelian varieties of arbitrary dimension. Over a number field we show that the subgroup of odd order elements of the Brauer group does not obstruct the Hasse principle. Sufficient…
We conjecture that the generating series of Gromov-Witten invariants of the Hilbert schemes of $n$ points on a K3 surface are quasi-Jacobi forms and satisfy a holomorphic anomaly equation. We prove the conjecture in genus $0$ and for at…
