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…

We compute explicit equations for the surfaces Z(17,1) and Z(17,3) parametrising pairs of $17$-congruent elliptic curves. We find that each is a double cover of the same elliptic K3-surface. We use these equations to exhibit the first…

The largest group which occurs as the rotational symmetries of a three-dimensional reflexive polytope is the symmetric group on four elements. There are three pairs of three-dimensional reflexive polytopes with this symmetry group, up to…

We show the finiteness of the N\'eron-Severi lattices of complex projective K3 surfaces whose automorphism groups are non-elementary hyperbolic with explicit descriptions, under the assumption that the Picard number $\ge 6$ which is optimal…

In the present paper we describe the K3 surfaces admitting order 11 automorphisms and apply this to classify log Enriques surfaces of global index 11.

We provide a real analog of the Yau-Zaslow formula counting rational curves on $K3$ surfaces.

We study the moduli of elliptic K3 surfaces with a section with the $ADE$ rank 17. While the Picard number of a generic K3 surface in such moduli space is 19, the Picard number is enhanced to 20 at special points in the moduli. K3 surfaces…

We consider real forms of relatively minimal rational surfaces F_m. Connected components of moduli of real non-singular curves in |-2K_{F_m}| had been classified recently for m=0, 1, 4 in math.AG/0312396. Applying similar methods, here we…

We give an explicit description of all quasismooth, rational, projective surfaces of Picard number one that admit a non-trivial torus action and have an integral canonical self intersection number.

We find new examples of complex surfaces with countably many non-isomorphic algebraic structures. Here is one such example: take an elliptic curve $E$ in $\mathbb P^2$ and blow up nine general points on $E$. Then the complement $M$ of the…

We give a list of possibilities for surfaces of general type with $p_g=0$ having an involution $i$ such that the bicanonical map of $S$ is not composed with $i$ and $S/i$ is not rational. Some examples with $K^2=4,...,7$ are constructed as…

We derive a characterization of the complex projective K3 surfaces which have automorphisms of positive entropy in term of their N\'eron-Severi lattices. Along the way, we classify the projective K3 surfaces of zero entropy with infinite…

We prove that any hyper-K\"{a}hler sixfold $K$ of generalized Kummer type has a naturally associated manifold $Y_K$ of $\mathrm{K}3^{[3]}$-type. It is obtained as crepant resolution of the quotient of $K$ by a group of symplectic…

We survey some results on real rational surfaces focused on their topology and their birational geometry.

The aim of the paper is to provide a series of new examples of smooth surfaces in P^4, not of general type, in degrees varying from 12 up to 14, and to describe their geometry. By using mainly syzygies and liaison techniques, we construct…

For a smooth complex projective variety, the rank of the N\'eron-Severi group is bounded by the Hodge number h^{1,1}. Varieties with rk NS = h^{1,1} have interesting properties, but are rather sparse, particularly in dimension 2. We discuss…

The article covers the unique complex K3 surface with maximal Picard rank and discriminant four. We discuss smooth, rational curves and identify generators of its automorphism group with certain Cremona transformations of $\mathbb{P}^2$.…

We enumerate the number of surfaces of degree $d$ in $P^3$ having a singular line of order $k$, passing through $\delta$ generic points (where $\delta$ is the dimension of moduli space of such surfaces).

We shall give a Counting Formula for the number of Fourier-Mukai partners of a K3 surface and consider three applications.

We study threefolds X in a projective space having as hyperplane section a smooth surface with an elliptic fibration. We first give a general theorem about the possible embeddings of such surfaces with Picard number two. More precise…
