Nikulin proved that the isometries induced on the second cohomology group of a K3 surface $X$ by a finite abelian group $G$ of symplectic automorphisms are essentially unique. Moreover he computed the discriminant of the sublattice of…

This is a survey on the automorphism groups in various classes of affine algebraic surfaces and the algebraic group actions on such surfaces. Being infinite-dimensional, these automorphism groups share some important features of algebraic…

Given a K3^[2]-type manifold X with a symplectic involution i, the quotient X/i admits a Nikulin orbifold Y as terminalization. We study the symplectic action of a group G of order 4 on X, such that i belongs to G, and the natural…

We construct a modular compactification via stable slc pairs for the moduli spaces of K3 surfaces with a nonsymplectic group of automorphisms under the assumption that some combination of the fixed loci of automorphisms defines an effective…

We survey some recent progress in the study of algebraic varieties X with log terminal singularities, especially, the uni-ruledness of the smooth locus X^0 of X, the fundamental group of X^0 and the automorphisms group on (smooth or…

Var3: In our papers 2013--2018 we classified degenerations and Picard lattices of Kahlerian K3 surfaces with finite symplectic automorphism groups of high order. For remaining groups of small order: $D_6$, $C_4$, $(C_2)^2$, $C_3$, $C_2$ and…

We study moduli spaces of lattice-polarized K3 surfaces in terms of orbits of representations of algebraic groups. In particular, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, we show that in many cases, the nondegenerate orbits…

If a K3 surface admits an automorphism with a Siegel disk, then its Picard number is an even integer between $0$ and $18$. Conversely, using the method of hypergeometric groups, we are able to construct K3 surface automorphisms with Siegel…

We prove that a K3 surface with an automorphism acting on the global $2$-forms by a primitive $m$-th root of unity, $m \neq 1,2,3,4,6$, does not degenerate (assuming the existence of the so-called Kulikov models). A key result used to prove…

We show that K3 surfaces with non-symplectic automorphisms of prime order can be used to construct new compact irreducible G2-manifolds. This technique was carried out in detail by Kovalev and Lee for non-symplectic involutions. We use…

We shall characterize the Fermat K3 surface, among all complex K3 surfaces, by means of its finite group symmetries.

We present a finite set of generators of the automorphism group of a supersingular K3 surface with Artin invariant 1 in characteristic 3.

We describe the Galois action on the middle $\ell$-adic cohomology of smooth, projective fourfolds $K_A(v)$ that occur as a fiber of the Albanese morphism on moduli spaces of sheaves on an abelian surface $A$ with Mukai vector $v$. We show…

We show that automorphism groups of Hopf and Kodaira surfaces have unbounded finite subgroups. For elliptic fibrations on Hopf, Kodaira, bielliptic, and K3 surfaces, we make some observations on finite groups acting along the fibers and on…

We consider the problem of when a closed orientable hyperbolic surface admits a totally geodesic embedding into a closed orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold; given a finite isometric group action on the surface, we consider in particular…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for an automorphism of the Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface (non necessarily algebraic) to be induced by an automorphism of the surface. We prove furthermore that the group of birational…

A $K3$ surface with an ample divisor of self-intersection 2 is a double cover of the plane branched over a sextic curve. We conjecture that a similar statement holds for the generic couple $(X,H)$ with $X$ a deformation of $(K3)^{[n]}$ and…

We consider the connected-sum method of constructing compact Riemannian 7-manifolds with holonomy G_2 developed in math.DG/0012189. The method requires pairs of projective complex threefolds endowed with anticanonical K3 divisors, the…

In this paper, we prove that, over an algebraically closed field whose characteristic is not 2,3 nor 7, a pair of a K3 surface and a purely non-symplectic automorphism of order 21 or 42 is unique up to isomorphism.

We verify that elliptic K3 surfaces and algebraic groups have many rational points over function fields, i.e., they are geometrically special in the sense of Javanpeykar-Rousseau. We also show that under additional assumptions, this…
