We introduce a new model for elliptic fibrations endowed with a Mordell-Weil group of rank one. We call it a Q$_7(\mathscr{L},\mathscr{S})$ model. It naturally generalizes several previous models of elliptic fibrations popular in the…
We classify Coble surfaces with finite automorphism group in arbitrary characteristic not equal to 2. There are exactly 9 isomorphism classes of such surfaces.
It was proved by Tien-Cuong Dinh and me that there is a smooth complex projective surface whose automorphism group is discrete and not finitely generated. In this paper, we will show that there is a smooth projective surface, birational to…
Elliptic K3 admit contraction to plane models, the Weierstrass models. We define a higher dimensional notion of Weierstrass models, show that they are compactification of torsors in a unique form, and propose an application to the kahler…
For a number field $K$, an algebraic variety $X/K$ is said to have the Hilbert Property if $X(K)$ is not thin. We are going to describe some examples of algebraic varieties, for which the Hilbert Property is a new result. The first class of…
We consider the 33 conjugacy classes of genus zero, torsion-free modular subgroups, computing ramification data and Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants. In the particular case of the index 36 subgroups, the corresponding Calabi-Yau threefolds…
We study complex algebraic K3 surfaces with finite automorphism groups and polarized by rank-fourteen, 2-elementary lattices. Three such lattices exist, namely $H \oplus E_8(-1) \oplus A_1(-1)^{\oplus 4}$, $H \oplus E_8(-1) \oplus D_4(-1)$,…
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…
We present a systematic study of threefolds fibred by K3 surfaces that are mirror to sextic double planes. There are many parallels between this theory and the theory of elliptic surfaces. We show that the geometry of such threefolds is…
We describe in terms of the j-invariant all elliptic surfaces pi: X -> C with a section, such that h^{1,1}(X)=rank NS(X) and the Mordell-Weil group of pi is finite. We use this to give a complete solution to infinitesimal Torelli for…
Geometric variations of local systems are families of variations of Hodge structure; they typically correspond to fibrations of K\"{a}hler manifolds for which each fibre itself is fibred by codimension one K\"{a}hler manifolds. In this…
We give a complete classification of finite groups acting symplectically on supersingular K3 surfaces of Artin invariant one. Using work of Dolgachev and Keum, this provides the full classification of tame finite symplectic automorphism…
We prove that the maximal singular fibres of elliptic K3 surfaces have type I_19 and I_14* unless the characteristic of the ground field is 2. In characteristic 2, the maximal singular fibres are I_18 and I_13*. The paper supplements work…
We prove that, for a K3 surface in characteristic p > 2, the automorphism group acts on the nef cone with a rational polyhedral fundamental domain and on the nodal classes with finitely many orbits. As a consequence, for any non-negative…
We construct various modular compactifications of the space of elliptic K3 surfaces using tools from the minimal model program, and explicitly describe the surfaces parametrized by their boundaries. The coarse spaces of our constructed…
This paper concerns complex algebraic K3 surfaces with an automorphism which acts trivially on the Neron-Severi group. Complementing a result by Vorontsov and Kondo, we determine those K3 surfaces where the order of the automorphism is a…
From the viewpoint of mirror symmetry, we revisit the hypergeometric system $E(3,6)$ for a family of K3 surfaces. We construct a good resolution of the Baily-Borel-Satake compactification of its parameter space, which admits special…
We present a sufficient condition for the punctural Hilbert scheme of length two of a K3 surface with finite automorphism group to have automorphism group of infinite order in geometric terms (Theorem 2.1). We then give concrete examples…
We give a system of generators of the automorphism group of the singular $K3$ surface of discriminant 7. This system of generators consists of the inversion involutions of some elliptic fibrations with a section together with ${\rm…
We study the quasimap invariants of elliptic and K3 fibrations. Oberdieck and Pixton conjectured that the Gromov-Witten potentials of elliptic fibrations are quasi-modular forms. Analogously, we propose similar conjecture for the quasimap…
