For each finite primitive subgroup $G$ of $\operatorname{PGL}_4(\mathbb{C})$, we find all the smooth $G$-invariant quartic surfaces. We also find all the faithful representations in $\operatorname{PGL}_4(\mathbb{C})$ of the smooth quartic…

In this paper we present a classification of non-symplectic automorphisms of K3 surfaces whose order is a multiple of seven by describing the topological type of their fixed locus. In the case of purely non-symplectic automorphisms, we…

In this paper we study the cohomology of smooth projective complex surfaces $S$ of general type with invariants $p_g = q = 2$ and surjective Albanese morphism. We show that on a Hodge-theoretic level, the cohomology is described by the…

This paper further studies the matroid realization space of a specific deformation of the regular $n$-gon with its lines of symmetry. Recently, we obtained that these particular realization spaces are birational to the elliptic modular…

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…

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.

Geometric and dynamic properties of embeddings of SL(2,Z) into the Cremona group are studied. Infinitely many non-conjugate embeddings which preserve the type (i.e. which send elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic elements onto elements of the…

We study surfaces constructed from groups of units in quaternion orders $\Lambda$ over the integers in real quadratic fields k. A short presentation of some general theory of such surfaces is given, in particular, we construct certain…

We prove that if a K3 surface $X$ admits $\Z/5\Z$ as group of symplectic automorphisms, then it actually admits $\Dh_5$ as group of symplectic automorphisms. The orthogonal complement to the $\Dh_5$-invariants in the second cohomology group…

We give a spinorial characterization of isometrically immersed surfaces into 3-dimensional homogeneous manifolds with 4-dimensional isometry group in terms of the existence of a particular spinor, called generalized Killing spinor. This…

We present the list of unavoidable local phenomena (transitions) occurring on the configuration of the parabolic and flecnodal curves of evolving smooth surfaces in R^3 (or RP^3). We also present the list of transitions occurring on the…

We study automorphism groups and birational automorphism groups of compact complex surfaces. We show that the automorphism group of such surface $X$ is always Jordan, and the birational automorphism group is Jordan unless $X$ is birational…

In this paper, we present two related results on curves of genus 3. The first gives a bijection between the classes of the following objects: * Smooth non-hyperelliptic curves C of genus 3, with a choice of an element a in Jac(C)[2]-{0},…

We address the problem of second order conformal deformation of spacelike surfaces in compactified Minkowski 4-space. We explain the construction of the exterior differential system of conformal deformations and discuss its general and…

Over an algebraically closed field, various finiteness results are known regarding the automorphism group of a K3 surface and the action of the automorphisms on the Picard lattice. We formulate and prove versions of these results over…

We generalize the spinorial characterization of isometric immersions of surfaces in R^3 given by T. Friedrich (On the spinor representation of surfaces in Euclidean 3-space, J. Geom. Phys. 28 (1998)) to surfaces in S^3 and H^3. The main…

This is the abstruct of the revised paper. We study the equivariant analytic torsion for K3 surfaces with an anti-symplectic involution with the invariant lattice M (such a surface is called a 2-elementary K3 surface of type M in this…

In this paper, we consider the orthogonal projection of a surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ for a given view direction. We then introduce and investigate several invariants of the families of the plane curves that locally configure the projection…

We determine the automorphism group of the Hilbert scheme of two points on a generic projective K3 surface of any polarization. We obtain in particular new examples of Hilbert schemes of points having non-natural non-symplectic…
