We study the surface arising from the diophantine equation $m^3+(m+1)^3+...+(m+k-1)^3=l^2$. It turns out that this is a $K3$ surface with Picard number 20. We stduy its aritmetic properties in detail. We construct elliptic fibrations on it,…
We consider the K3 surfaces that arise as double covers of the elliptic modular surface of level 5, $R_{5,5}$. Such surfaces have a natural elliptic fibration induced by the fibration on $R_{5,5}$. Moreover, they admit several other…
We study isogeny relations between K3 surfaces and Kummer surfaces. Specifically, we prove a Torelli-type theorem for the existence of rational maps from K3 surfaces to Kummer surfaces, and a Kummer sandwich theorem for K3 surfaces with…
We consider elliptic surfaces $\mathcal{E}$ over a field $k$ equipped with zero section $O$ and another section $P$ of infinite order. If $k$ has characteristic zero, we show there are only finitely many points where $O$ is tangent to a…
We compute explicit equations for the surfaces Z(17,1) and Z(17,3) parametrising pairs of $17$-congruent elliptic curves. We find that each is a double cover of the same elliptic K3-surface. We use these equations to exhibit the first…
The splitting field of an elliptic surface $\mathcal{E}/\mathbb{Q}(t)$ is the smallest finite extension $\mathcal{K} \subset \mathbb{C}$ such that all $\mathbb{C}(t)$-rational points are defined over $\mathcal{K}(t)$. In this paper, we…
We study semistable pairs on elliptic K3 surfaces with a section: we construct a family of moduli spaces of pairs, related by wall crossing phenomena, which can be studied to describe the birational correspondence between moduli spaces of…
We show by phase space analysis that there are exactly 17 possible qualitative behaviors for a rotational surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ that satisfies an arbitrary elliptic Weingarten equation $W(\kappa_1,\kappa_2)=0$, and study the…
This article primarily aims at classifying, on certain K3 surfaces, the elliptic fibrations induced by conic bundles on smooth del Pezzo surfaces. The key geometric tool employed is the Alexeev-Nikulin correspondence between del Pezzo…
In this paper we characterize concircular helices in $R^3$ by means of a differential equation involving their curvature and torsion. We find a full description of concircular surfaces in $R^3$ as a special family of ruled surfaces, and we…
One of the most powerful ideas in the study and classification of algebraic varieties is the notion of a model: that is, to single out an object, in the appropriate isomorphism class, with nice properties. This survey aims to define and…
We classify two dimensional integrable mappings by investigating the actions on the fiber space of rational elliptic surfaces. While the QRT mappings can be restricted on each fiber, there exist several classes of integrable mappings which…
We study the possible structure of the groups of rational points on elliptic curves of the form y^2=(ax+1)(bx+1)(cx+1), where a,b,c are non-zero rationals such that the product of any two of them is one less than a square.
We study elliptic surfaces over $\mathbb{Q}(T)$ with coefficients of a Weierstrass model being polynomials in $\mathbb{Q}[T]$ with degree at most 2. We derive an explicit expression for their rank over $\mathbb{Q}(T)$ depending on the…
Using toric geometry, lattice theory, and elliptic surface techniques, we compute the Picard Lattice of certain K3 surfaces. In particular, we examine the generic member of each of M. Reid's list of 95 families of Gorenstein K3 surfaces…
On a real regular elliptic surface without multiple fiber, the Betti number $h_1$ and the Hodge number $h^{1,1}$ are related by $h_1\leq h^{1,1}$. We prove that it's always possible to deform such algebraic surface to obtain $h_1=h^{1,1}$.…
We proved that the union of rational curves is dense on a very general K3 surface and the union of elliptic curves is dense in the 1st jet space of a very general K3 surface, both in the strong topology.
We study generators and relations of Cox rings of K3 surfaces of Picard number two. In particular we consider the Cox rings of classical examples of K3 surfaces, such as quartic surfaces containing a line and elliptic K3 surfaces.
Using techniques from geometry and complex analysis in their simplest form, we present a derivation of electric fields on surfaces with non-trivial topology. A byproduct of this analysis is an intuitive visualization of elliptic functions…
In this survey we discuss the problem of the existence of rational curves on complex surfaces, both in the K\"ahler and non-K\"ahler setup. We systematically go through the Enriques--Kodaira classification of complex surfaces to highlight…
