It is known that the dynamical degree, or equivalently, the topological entropy of an automorphism g of an algebraic surface S is lower semi-continuous when (S,g) varies in a algebraic family. In this paper we make a series of experiments…
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 $22$.
We classify Enriques involutions on a K3 surface, up to conjugation in the automorphism group, in terms of lattice theory. We enumerate such involutions on singular K3 surfaces with transcendental lattice of discriminant smaller than or…
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…
Lehmer's number $\lambda_{10}$ is the smallest dynamical degree greater than $1$ that can occur for an automorphism of an algebraic surface. We show that $\lambda_{10}$ cannot be realized by automorphisms of Enriques surfaces in odd…
We characterize Salem numbers which have some power arising as dynamical degree of an automorphism on a complex (projective) 2-Torus, K3 or Enriques surface.
We prove gap theorems for entropy norms on automorphism groups of K3 surfaces, Enriques surfaces, and irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds. We also study the achirality of automorphisms of K3 surfaces and Enriques surfaces in terms…
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…
For any odd characteristic p=2 mod 3, we exhibit an explicit automorphism on the supersingular K3 surface of Artin invariant one which does not lift to any characteristic zero model. Our construction builds on elliptic fibrations to produce…
We realize the logarithm of the third smallest known Salem number as the topological entropy of a K3 surface automorphism with a Siegel disk and a pointwisely fixed curve at the same time. We also show the logarithm of the Lehmer number,…
Every Salem numbers of degree 4,6,8,12,14 or 16 is the dynamical degree of an automorphism of a non-projective K3 surface. We define a notion of signature of an automorphism, and use it to give a necessary and sufficient condition for Salem…
For two-dimensional complex tori, we characterize the set of all values of positive entropy that arise from automorphisms. For K3 surfaces, we give suffcient conditions for a positive value to be the entropy of some automorphism.
We determine the minimum positive entropy of complex Enriques surface automorphisms. This together with McMullen's work completes the determination of the minimum positive entropy of complex surface automorphisms in each class of…
We classify Enriques surfaces with smooth K3 cover and finite automorphism group in arbitrary positive characteristic. The classification is the same as over the complex numbers except that some types are missing in small characteristics.…
We give conceptual proofs of some results on the automorphism group of an Enriques surface X, for which only computational proofs have been available. Namely, there is an obvious upper bound on the image of Aut(X) in the isometry group of…
In this article we give a strategy to decide whether the logarithm of a given Salem number is realized as entropy of an automorphism of a supersingular K3 surface in positive characteristic. As test case it is proved that $\log \lambda_d$,…
We derive explicit equations for the Oguiso-Yu automorphism of minimum topological entropy on a complex Enriques surface. The approach is computer aided and makes use of elliptic fibrations.
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…
McMullen proved that there exists an automorphism of minimal topological entropy on a projective K3 surface. We derive equations for the surface and its automorphism. We reconstruct the surface and its automorphism from the Hodge theoretic…
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…
