Double planes branched in 6 lines give a famous example of K3 surfaces. Their moduli are well understood and related to abelian fourfolds of Weil type. We compare these two moduli interpretations and in particular divisors on the moduli…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective rational surface, $D\subset X$ an effective anticanonical curve, $\beta$ a curve class on $X$ and $\mathfrak{d}=\sum w_iP_i$ an effective divisor on $D_{\mathrm{sm}}$. We consider the moduli space…

The classical Kummer construction attaches to an abelian surface a K3 surface. As Shioda and Katsura showed, this construction breaks down for supersingular abelian surfaces in characteristic two. Replacing supersingular abelian surfaces by…

For an ample line bundle on an Abelian or K3 surface, minimal with respect to the polarization, the relative Hilbert scheme of points on the complete linear system is known to be smooth. We give an explicit expression in quasi-Jacobi forms…

We investigate the moduli spaces of one- and two-dimensional sheaves on projective K3 and abelian surfaces that are semistable with respect to a nongeneral ample divisor with regard to the symplectic resolvability. We can exclude the…

Let $\mathfrak B_g$ denote the moduli space of primitively polarized $K3$ surfaces $(S,H)$ of genus $g$ over $\mathbb C$. It is well-known that $\mathfrak B_g$ is irreducible and that there are only finitely many rational curves in $|H|$…

We give detailed descriptions of the period maps of two 2-parameter families of anti-canonical hypersurfaces in toric 3-folds. One of them is related to a Hilbert modular surface, and the other is related to the product of modular curves.

In this article we study the period map for a family of $K3$ surfaces which is given by the anticanonial divisor of a toric variety. We determine the period differential equation and its monodromy group. Moreover we show the exact relation…

Let $E$ be a totally real number field of degree $d$ and let $m \geqslant 3$ be an integer. We show that if $md \leqslant 21$ then there exists an $(m-2)$-dimensional family of complex projective $K3$ surfaces with real multiplication by…

By showing a structural result on how the Rozansky-Witten invariants of Hilbert schemes of points on a K3 surface and the Generalised Kummer varieties depend on the dimension, we give a method how to compute a large class of Rozansky-Witten…

By work of Looijenga and others, one has a good understanding of the relationship between GIT and Baily-Borel compactifications for the moduli spaces of degree 2 K3 surfaces, cubic fourfolds, and a few other related examples. The…

The rational cohomology ring of A_3, the moduli space of abelian 3-folds is computed. This is isomorphic to the the rational cohomology ring of the group Sp_3(Z) of 6x6 integral symplectic matrices. The main ingredients in the computation…

Components of the Moduli space of sheaves on a K3 surface are parametrized by a lattice; the (algebraic) Mukai lattice. Isometries of the Mukai lattice often lift to symplectic birational isomorphisms of the collection of components. An…

Let K be the totally real cubic field of discriminant 49, let O be its ring of integers, and let p be the prime over 7. Let Gamma (p)\subset Gamma = SL_2(O) be the principal congruence subgroup of level p. This paper investigates the…

We study the geometry and topology of Hilbert schemes of points on the orbifold surface [C^2/G], respectively the singular quotient surface C^2/G, where G is a finite subgroup of SL(2,C) of type A or D. We give a decomposition of the…

The aim of this paper is to give an explicit extension of the classical elliptic integrals to the Hilbert modular case for $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{5})$. We study a family of Kummer surfaces corresponding to the Humbert surface of invariant $5$…

Strange duality is shown to hold over generic $K3$ surfaces in a large number of cases. The isomorphism for elliptic $K3$ surfaces is established first via Fourier-Mukai techniques. Applications to Brill-Noether theory for sheaves on $K3$s…

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 develop a heuristic for the density of integer points on affine cubic surfaces. Our heuristic applies to smooth surfaces defined by cubic polynomials that are log K3, but it can also be adjusted to handle singular cubic surfaces. We…

In this article, we present a method for computing rational points on hyperelliptic curves of genus~3 and isolated quadratic points on hyperelliptic curves of genus~2 and~3 whose Jacobians have rank~0. Our approach begins by computing the…
