Among geometrically rational surfaces, del Pezzo surfaces of degree two over a field k containing at least one point are arguably the simplest that are not known to be unirational over k. Looking for k-rational curves on these surfaces, we…
We compute the small quantum cohomology of Gushel-Mukai fourfolds. Following [13], our computations imply that the very general ones are not rational. Following [8], and thanks to a suitable deformation of the small quantum cohomology ring,…
Given a number field $K$ and a finite set $S$ of places of $K$, the first main result of this paper shows that the quadratic rational maps $\phi:{\mathbb P}^1\to{\mathbb P}^1$ defined over $K$ which have good reduction at all places outside…
In this paper we study the automorphisms group of some $K3$ surfaces which are double covers of the projective plane ramified over a smooth sextic plane curve. More precisely, we study the case of a $K3$ surface of Picard rank two such that…
This paper proposes a new geometric construction of Enriques surfaces. Its starting point are K3 surfaces with jacobian elliptic fibration which arise from rational elliptic surfaces by a quadratic base change. The Enriques surfaces…
In this paper, we study the geometry of trisections on certain rational elliptic surfaces. We utilize Mumford representations of semi-reduced divisors in order to construct trisections and related plane curves with interesting properties…
We study the moduli spaces of elliptic K3 surfaces of Picard number at least 3, i.e. $U\oplus \langle -2k \rangle$-polarized K3 surfaces. Such moduli spaces are proved to be of general type for $k\geq 220$. The proof relies on the…
In this note we relate about the problem of evaluate the dimension of linear systems through fat points defined on generic $K3$ surfaces.
In this paper we have proved several approximation theorems for the family of minimal surfaces in R^3 that imply, among other things, that complete minimal surfaces are dense in the space of all minimal surfaces endowed with the topology of…
We investigate the construction of real analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces in K3 surfaces. By taking images of real hyperplanes, one can construct such hypersurfaces in two-dimensional complex tori. We show that "almost every" K3 surfaces…
The quotient space of a $K3$ surface by a finite group is an Enriques surface or a rational surface if it is smooth. Finite groups where the quotient space are Enriques surfaces are known. In this paper, by analyzing effective divisors on…
We study complex algebraic K3 surfaces of Picard ranks 11,12, and 13 of finite automorphism group that admit a Jacobian elliptic fibration with a section of order two. We prove that the K3 surfaces admit a birational model isomorphic to a…
We study hyperplane sections of smooth polarized $K3$-surfaces that split into unions of lines. We describe the dual adjacency graphs of such sections and find sharp upper bounds on their number. In most cases (starting from degree $6$), we…
In this paper we classify the topological invariants of the possible branch loci of a smooth double cover $f:X\rightarrow Y$ of a K3 surface $Y$. We describe some geometric properties of $X$ which depend on the properties of the branch…
We give an overview of some recent interactions between the geometry of K3 surfaces and their Ricci-flat Kahler metrics and the dynamical study of K3 automorphisms with positive entropy.
We outline a method to compute rational models for the Hilbert modular surfaces Y_{-}(D), which are coarse moduli spaces for principally polarized abelian surfaces with real multiplication by the ring of integers in Q(sqrt{D}), via moduli…
Given a polarized variety $(X,L)$, we construct and study projections of low degree $ X\dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}(H^0(L^\vee)) \dashrightarrow \mathbb P ^n $ using the associated kernel bundles. As an application, we can show that the…
In this paper we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded anticanonical height which lie on a certain Zariski dense subset of the biprojective hypersurface \begin{align*} x_1y_1^2+...+x_sy_s^2 = 0…
We prove some cycle relations on moduli of K3 surfaces
We prove that for a dominant rational self-map $f$ on a quasi-projective variety defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, there is a point whose $f$-orbit is well-defined and its arithmetic degree is arbitrarily close to the first dynamical…
