In this note we exhibit explicit automorphisms of maximal Salem degree 22 on the supersingular K3 surface of Artin invariant one for all primes p congruent 3 mod 4 in a systematic way. Automorphisms of Salem degree 22 do not lift to any…

We give a short proof that every supersingular K3 surface (except possibly in characteristic $2$ with Artin invariant $\sigma=10$) has an automorphism of Salem degree 22. In particular an infinite subgroup of the automorphism group does not…

We present a method to generate many automorphisms of a supersingular K3 surface in odd characteristic. As an application, we show that, if p is an odd prime less than or equal to 7919, then every supersingular K3 surface in characteristic…

Using elliptic structures, we show that any supersingular K3 surface of Artin invariant $1$ in characteristic $p \not= 5$, $7$, $13$ has an automorphism the entropy of which is the natural logarithm of a Salem number of degree $22$.

In characteristic $p=0$ or $p>5$, we show that a K3 surface with an order 60 automorphism is unique up to isomorphism. As a consequence, we characterize the supersingular K3 surface with Artin invariant 1 in characteristic $p=11$ (mod 12)…

We study the maximal Salem degree of automorphisms of K3 surfaces via elliptic fibrations. By generalizing \cite{EOY14}, we establish a characterization of such maximum in terms of elliptic fibrations with infinite automorphism groups. As…

We present a finite set of generators of the automorphism group of a supersingular K3 surface with Artin invariant 1 in characteristic 3.

Given a K3 surface X over a field of characteristic p, Artin conjectured that if X is supersingular (meaning infinite height) then its Picard rank is 22. Along with work of Nygaard-Ogus, this conjecture implies the Tate conjecture for K3…

We show that a characteristic $0$ model $X_R\to \Spec R$, with Picard number $1$ over a geometric generic point, of a K3 surface in characteristic $p\ge 3$, essentially kills all automorphisms (Theorem 5.1). We show that there is an…

We consider K3 surfaces of Picard rank 14 which admit a purely nonsymplectic automorphism of order 16. The automorphism acts on the second cohomology group with integer coefficients and we compute the invariant sublattice for the action. We…

The aim of this paper is to give necessary and sufficient conditions for an integral polynomial to be the characteristic polynomial of a semi-simple isometry of some even unimodular lattice of given signature. This result has applications…

In this paper, we prove that, over an algebraically closed field of odd characteristic, a weakly tame automorphism of a K3 surface of finite height can be lifted over the ring of Witt vectors of the base field. Also we prove that a…

In this paper we study K3 surfaces with a non-symplectic automorphism of order 3. In particular, we classify the topological structure of the fixed locus of such automorphisms and we show that it determines the action on cohomology. This…

If an automorphism of a projective K3 surface with Picard number 2 is of infinite order, then the automorphism corresponds to a solution of Pell equation. In this paper, by solving this equation, we determine all Salem polynomials of…

We present three interesting projective models of the supersingular K3 surface X in characteristic 5 with Artin invariant 1. For each projective model, we determine smooth rational curves on X with the minimal degree and the projective…

For every supersingular $K3$ surface $X$ in characteristic 2, there exists a homogeneous polynomial $G$ of degree 6 such that $X$ is birational to the purely inseparable double cover of a projective plane defined by $w^2=G$. We present an…

Consider an arbitrary automorphism of an Enriques surface with its lift to the covering K3 surface. We prove a bound of the order of the lift acting on the anti-invariant cohomology sublattice of the Enriques involution. We use it to obtain…

We construct explicitly moduli curves of polarized supersingular K3 surfaces in characteristic 2 with Artin invariant 2. As an application, we detect a "jump" phenomenon in a family of automorphism groups of supersingular K3 surfaces with a…

In this note we present the classification of non-symplectic automorphisms of prime order on K3 surfaces, i.e.we describe the topological structure of their fixed locus and determine the invariant lattice in cohomology. We provide new…

In this paper, we prove that, over an algebraically closed field whose characteristic is not 2,3 nor 7, a pair of a K3 surface and a purely non-symplectic automorphism of order 21 or 42 is unique up to isomorphism.
