We interprete results of Markman on monodromy operators as a universality statement for descendent integrals over moduli spaces of stable sheaves on $K3$ surfaces. This yields effective methods to reduce these descendent integrals to…

In general, not much is known about the arithmetic of K3 surfaces. Once the geometric Picard number, which is the rank of the Neron-Severi group over an algebraic closure of the base field, is high enough, more structure is known and more…

We give obstructions - in terms of Gaussian maps - for a marked Prym curve $(C,\alpha,T_d)$ to admit a singular model lying on an Enriques surface with only one $d$-ordinary point singularity and in such a way that $T_d$ corresponds to the…

Idoneal genera are a generalization of Euler's idoneal numbers. We enumerate all idoneal genera by means of the Smith--Minkowski--Siegel mass formula. As an application, we classify transcendental lattices of K3 surfaces covering an…

This paper develops families of complex Enriques surfaces whose Brauer groups pull back identically to zero on the covering K3 surfaces. Our methods rely on isogenies with Kummer surfaces of product type. We offer both lattice theoretic and…

Let $\bar{Y}$ be a normal surface that is the canonical $\mu_2$- or $\alpha_2$-covering of a classical or supersingular Enriques surface in characteristic $2$. We determine all possible configurations of singularities on $\bar{Y}$, and for…

We exhibit large families of K3 surfaces with real multiplication, both abstractly using lattice theory, the Torelli theorem and the surjectivity of the period map, as well as explicitly using dihedral covers and isogenies.

We discuss some aspects of the behavior of specialization at a finite place of N\'eron-Severi groups of K3 surfaces over number fields. We give optimal lower bounds for the Picard number of such specializations, thus answering a question of…

We study arithmetic properties of derived equivalent K3 surfaces over the field of Laurent power series, using the equivariant geometry of K3 surfaces with cyclic groups actions.

We introduce Kummer surfaces X=Km(CxC) with the group scheme G=mu_2 acting on the self-product of the rational cuspidal curve in characteristic two. The resulting quotients are normal surfaces having a configuration of sixteen rational…

We conjecture an explicit formula for the $K$-theoretically refined Vafa-Witten invariants of the Enriques surface. By a wall-crossing argument the conjecture is equivalent to a new conjectural formula for the K-theoretically refined…

Let $Y$ be a smooth Enriques surface. A $K3$ carpet on $Y$ is a locally Cohen-Macaulay double structure on $Y$ with the same invariants as a smooth $K3$ surface (i.e., regular and with trivial canonical sheaf). The surface $Y$ possesses an…

We describe the equations and Gr\"obner bases of some degenerate K3 surfaces associated to rational normal scrolls. These K3 surfaces are members of a class of interesting singular projective varieties we call correspondence scrolls. The…

This thesis is devoted to the study of abelian automorphism groups of surfaces and $3$-folds of general type over complex number field $\Bbb C$. We obtain a linear bound in $K^3$ for abelian automorphism groups of $3$-folds of general type…

Throughout this paper, we work over ${\mathbb C}$, and $n$ is an integer such that $n\geq 2$. For an Enriques surface $E$, let $E^{[n]}$ be the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points of $E$. By Oguiso and Schr\"oer, $E^{[n]}$ has a Calabi-Yau…

For a real Enriques surface Y we prove that every homology class in H_1(Y(R), Z/2) can be represented by a real algebraic curve if and only if all connected components of Y(R) are orientable. Furthermore, we give a characterization of real…

We give a description of the category of ordinary K3 surfaces over a finite field in terms of linear algebra data over Z. This gives an analogue for K3 surfaces of Deligne's description of the category of ordinary abelian varieties over a…

Log Enriques surface is a generalization of K3 and Enriques surface. We will classify all the rational log Enriques surfaces of rank 18 by giving concrete models for the realizable types of these surfaces.

We prove that every element of order 2 in the Brauer group of a complex Kummer surface X descends to an Enriques quotient of X. In 'generic' cases this gives a bijection between the set Enr(X) of Enriques quotients of X up to isomorphism…

We construct the moduli space of Enriques surfaces in positive characteristic and eventually over the integers, and determine its local and global structure. As an application, we show lifting of Enriques surfaces to characteristic zero.…
