We show that for many moduli spaces M of torsion sheaves on K3 surfaces S, the functor D(S) -> D(M) induced by the universal sheaf is a P-functor, hence can be used to construct an autoequivalence of D(M), and that this autoequivalence can…
Liedtke (2008) has introduced group functors $K$ and $\tilde K$, which are used in the context of describing certain invariants for complex algebraic surfaces. He proved that these functors are connected to the theory of central extensions…
Flops are birational transformations which, conjecturally, induce derived equivalences. In many cases an equivalence can be produced as pull-push via a resolution of the birational transformation; when this happens, we have a non-trivial…
We construct many closed, embedded mean curvature self-shrinking surfaces $\Sigma_g^2\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ of high genus $g=2k$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$. Each of these shrinking solitons has isometry group equal to the dihedral group on $2g$…
We construct new examples of derived autoequivalences for a family of higher-dimensional Calabi-Yau varieties. Specifically, we take the total spaces of certain natural vector bundles over Grassmannians G(r,d) of r-planes in a d-dimensional…
A holomorphic torsion invariant of K3 surfaces with involution was introduced by the second-named author. In this paper, we completely determine its structure as an automorphic function on the moduli space of such K3 surfaces. On every…
In the first part of this paper we give a survey of classical results on Kummer surfaces with Picard number 17 from the point of view of lattice theory. We prove ampleness properties for certain divisors on Kummer surfaces and we use them…
In this paper, we study the action of an autoequivalence, the spherical twist associated to a torsion sheaf, on the standard Bridgeland stability conditions and a generalized weak stability condition on the derived category of a K3 surface.…
We find generators of the group of birational automorphisms of the Hessian surface of a general cubic surface. Its nonsingular minimal model is a K3 surface with the Picard lattice of rank 16. The latter embeds naturally in the even…
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 arXiv:2007.14415 we proved that the "flop-flop" autoequivalence can be realized as the spherical twist around a spherical functor whose source category arises naturally from the geometry. In this companion paper we study in detail some…
We pose the problem to determine explicit defining equations of various elliptic fibrations on a given $K3$ surface, and study the case of the Kummer surfaces of the product of two elliptic curves.
A periodic automorphism of a surface $\Sigma$ is said to be extendable over $S^3$ if it extends to a periodic automorphism of the pair $(S^3,\Sigma)$ for some possible embedding $\Sigma\to S^3$. We classify and construct all extendable…
We introduce an inseparable version of Kummer surfaces. It is defined as a supersingular K3 surface in characteristic 2 with 16 smooth rational curves forming a certain configuration and satisfying a suitable divisibility condition. The…
We investigate three-dimensional surfaces where the normal vector forms a constant angle with the radius vector. These surfaces naturally extend equiangular (logarithmic) spirals in the plane.
By carrying out a rational transformation on the base curve $\mathbb{CP}^1$ of the Seiberg-Witten curve for $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric pure $\mathrm{SU}(2)$-gauge theory, we obtain a family of Jacobian elliptic K3 surfaces of Picard…
We explicitly find an equation and a projective embedding of the Kummer surface associated to the Jacobian of a curve of genus 2 given by an equation of the form y^2 + h(x)y = f(x) over an arbitrary ground field as well as several maps that…
In this work, we consider 2-surfaces in ${\mathbb R}^3$ arising from the modified Korteweg de Vries (mKdV) equation. We give a method for constructing the position vector of the mKdV surface explicitly for a given solution of the mKdV…
We investigate both geometric and conformal field theoretic aspects of mirror symmetry on N=(4,4) superconformal field theories with central charge c=6. Our approach enables us to determine the action of mirror symmetry on (non-stable)…
Let $X\subset \P^5$ be a smooth cubic fourfold. A well known conjecture asserts that $X$ is rational if and only if there an Hodge theoretically associated K3 surface $S$. The surface $S$ can be associated to $X$ in two other different…
