A (smooth) K3 surface X defined over a field k of characteristic 0 is called singular if the N\'eron-Severi lattice NS (X) of X over the algebraic closure of k is of rank 20. Let X be a singular K3 surface defined over a number field F. For…
Arithmetic of K3 surfaces defined over finite fields is investigated. In particular, we show that any K3 surface of finite height over a finite field k of characteristic p > 3 has a quasi-canonical lifting to characteristic 0, and that for…
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.
Given a K3 surface $X$ over a number field $K$ with potentially good reduction everywhere, we prove that the set of primes of $K$ where the geometric Picard rank jumps is infinite. As a corollary, we prove that either $X_{\overline{K}}$ has…
We survey crystalline cohomology, crystals, and formal group laws with an emphasis on geometry. We apply these concepts to K3 surfaces, and especially to supersingular K3 surfaces. In particular, we discuss stratifications of the moduli…
We present three interesting projective models of the supersingular K3 surface X in characteristic 5 with Artin invariant 1. For each projective model, we determine smooth rational curves on X with the minimal degree and the projective…
We show that K3 surfaces in characteristic 2 can admit sets of $n$ disjoint smooth rational curves whose sum is divisible by 2 in the Picard group, for each $n=8,12,16,20$. More precisely, all values occur on supersingular K3 surfaces, with…
We show that every supersingular K3 surface in characteristic 5 with Artin invariant less than or equal to 3 is unirational.
We study the geometry of the K3 surfaces $X$ with a finite number automorphisms and Picard number $\geq 3$. We describe these surfaces classified by Nikulin and Vinberg as double covers of simpler surfaces or embedded in a projective space.…
Let $X$ be a K3 surface over a number field. We prove that $X$ has infinitely many specializations where its Picard rank jumps, hence extending our previous work with Shankar--Shankar--Tang to the case where $X$ might have potentially bad…
In this paper, for each $d>0$, we study the minimum integer $h_{3,2d}\in \mathbb{N}$ for which there exists a complex polarized K3 surface $(X,H)$ of degree $H^2=2d$ and Picard number $\rho (X):=\textrm{rank } \textrm{Pic } X = h_{3,2d}$…
We study complex algebraic K3 surfaces with finite automorphism groups and polarized by rank-fourteen, 2-elementary lattices. Three such lattices exist, namely $H \oplus E_8(-1) \oplus A_1(-1)^{\oplus 4}$, $H \oplus E_8(-1) \oplus D_4(-1)$,…
For a K3 surface over an algebraically closed field of odd characteristic, the representation of the automorphism group on the global two forms is finite. If the K3 surface is supersingular, it is isomorphic to the representation on the…
For a smooth projective surface X the finite dimensionality of the Chow motive h(X), as conjectured by S.I Kimura, has several geometric consequences. For a complex surface of general type with p_g = 0 it is equivalent to Bloch's…
We determine all complex K3 surfaces with Picard rank 20 over Q. Here the Neron-Severi group has rank 20 and is generated by divisors which are defined over Q. Our proof uses modularity, the Artin-Tate conjecture and class group theory.…
The Shafarevich conjecture for K3 surfaces asserts the finiteness of isomorphism classes of K3 surfaces over a fixed number field admitting good reduction away from a fixed finite set of finite places. Andr\'{e} proved this conjecture for…
We give applications of integral canonical models of orthogonal Shimura varieties and the Kuga-Satake morphism to the arithmetic of K3 surfaces over finite fields. We prove every K3 surface of finite height over a finite field admits a…
We construct Zariski K3 surfaces of Artin invariant 1, 2 and 3 in many characteristics. In particular, we prove that any supersingular Kummer surface is Zariski if the characteristic is not congruent to 1 modulo 12. Our methods combine…
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…
Based on the result on derived categories on K3 surfaces due to Mukai and Orlov and the result concerning almost-prime numbers due to Iwaniec, we remark the following fact: For any given positive integer N, there are N (mutually…
