K3 polytopes appear in complements of tropical quartic surfaces. They are dual to regular unimodular central triangulations of reflexive polytopes in the fourth dilation of the standard tetrahedron. Exploring these combinatorial objects, we…
In this paper we present three different results dealing with the number of $(\leq k)$-facets of a set of points: 1. We give structural properties of sets in the plane that achieve the optimal lower bound $3\binom{k+2}{2}$ of $(\leq…
We prove that there exists a number field $\fie$ and a smooth projective $\mathrm{K3}$ surface $S_{22}$ (of genus $12$) over $\fie$ such that the geometric Picard number of $S_{22}$ is equal to $1$ and the $\fie$-rational points of $S_{22}$…
We study the class of complex algebraic K3 surfaces admitting an embedding of H+E8+E8 inside the Neron-Severi lattice. These special K3 surfaces are classified by a pair of modular invariants, in the same manner that elliptic curves over…
We study foliations $\mathscr{F}$ on projective complete intersection K3 surfaces $X \hookrightarrow \mathbb{P}^n$, where $\mathscr{F}$ has isolated singularities and it is the restriction of a foliation of degree $d$ on $\mathbb{P}^n$ that…
A regular linear line complex is a three-parameter set of lines in space, whose Pl\"ucker vectors lie in a hyperplane, which is not tangent to the Klein quadric. Our main result is a bound $O(n^{1/2}m^{3/4} + m+n)$ for the number of…
We prove that the moduli space of contact stable maps to $\mathbb{P}^{2n+1}$ of degree $d$ admits a stratification parameterized by graphs. We use it to determine the number of irreducible rational contact curves in $\mathbb{P}^{2n+1}$ with…
We study the geometry of the smooth projective surfaces that are defined by Frobenius forms, a class of homogenous polynomials in prime characteristic recently shown to have minimal possible F-pure threshold among forms of the same degree.…
In this paper, we construct intriguing sets in five classes of strongly regular graphs defined on nonisotropic points of finite classical polar spaces, and determine their intersection numbers.
We prove that the number of legendrian rational cubics in $\mathbb C P^3$ through three generic points and a line is three; also we classify all legendrian curves on a quadric surface. Several computations are additionally verified using…
For families of $K3$ surfaces, we establish a sufficient criterion for real or complex multiplication. Our criterion is arithmetic in nature. It may show, at first, that the generic fibre of the family has a nontrivial endomorphism field.…
We study the curvature of a smooth algebraic surface $X\subset \mathbb R^3$ of degree $d$ from the point of view of algebraic geometry. More precisely, we consider umbilical points and points of critical curvature. We prove that the number…
A normal projective complex surface is called a rational homology projective plane if it has the same Betti numbers with the complex projective plane $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2$. It is known that a rational homology projective plane with…
I have finalized my old (1979) results about enumeration of connected components of moduli of real polarized K3 surfaces. As an application, using recent results of math.AG/0312396, the complete classification of real polarized K3 surfaces…
We show that normal K3 surfaces with ten cusps exist in and only in characteristic 3. We determine these K3 surfaces according to the degrees of the polarizations. Explicit examples are given.
We review recent developments in the arithmetic of K3 surfaces. Our focus lies on aspects of modularity, Picard number and rational points. Throughout we emphasise connections to geometry.
Let C be a smooth cubic curve in the complex projective plane. We show that for every positive integer k, there are only finite number of rational curves of degree k each intersects the cubic C at exactly one point. The number of such…
We study K3 surfaces of degree 6 containing two sets of 12 skew lines such that each line from a set intersects exactly six lines from the other set. These surfaces arise as hyperplane sections of the cubic line complex associated with the…
These notes will give an introduction to the theory of K3 surfaces. We begin with some general results on K3 surfaces, including the construction of their moduli space and some of its properties. We then move on to focus on the theory of…
Let $X$ be an Enriques surface defined over a number field $K$. Then there exists a finite extension $K'/K$ such that the set of $K'$-rational points of $X$ is Zariski dense.
