We give a version of the Artin-Tate formula for surfaces over finite fields not assuming Tate's conjecture. It gives an equality between terms related to the Brauer group on the one hand and terms related to the Neron-Severi group on the…

This paper examines the relationship between the knotting of an embedded surface in $\R^3$ and the knotting of its fold curves, formed by the singular set of projection to a plane. The first result shows that every surface, no matter how…

In 2009, Dolgachev-Keum showed that finite groups of tame symplectic automorphisms of K3 surfaces in positive characteristics are subgroups of the Mathieu group of degree 23. In this paper, we utilize lattice-theoretic methods to…

In this paper, we prove a refinement of the Katsura theorem on finite group actions on abelian surfaces such that the quotient is birational to a $K3$ surface. As an application, we compute traces of Frobenius on the Neron--Severi groups of…

In general, not much is known about the arithmetic of K3 surfaces. Once the geometric Picard number, which is the rank of the Neron-Severi group over an algebraic closure of the base field, is high enough, more structure is known and more…

We calculate the automorphism group of certain Enriques surfaces. The Enriques surfaces that we investigate include very general $n$-nodal Enriques surfaces and very general cuspidal Enriques surfaces. We also describe the action of the…

For a large class of isotrivial rational elliptic surfaces (with section), we show that the set of rational points is dense for the Zariski topology, by carefully studying variations of root numbers among the fibers of these surfaces. We…

The geometric objects of study in this paper are K3 surfaces which admit a polarization by the unique even unimodular lattice of signature (1,17). A standard Hodge-theoretic observation about this special class of K3 surfaces is that their…

We calculate the automorphism group of the Kummer surface associated with a curve of genus 2 or the product of two elliptic curves in characteristic two under the assumption that the Kummer surface is a $K3$ surface. Moreover we discuss the…

We construct a lot of K3 surface automorphisms of positive entropy having rotation domains of ranks 1 and 2. To carry out this construction, we first lay theoretical foundations concerning equivariant linearization of nonlinear maps under…

Smooth and symplectic symmetries of an infinite family of distinct exotic $K3$ surfaces are studied, and comparison with the corresponding symmetries of the standard $K3$ is made. The action on the $K3$ lattice induced by a smooth finite…

We define regularized elliptic genera of ALE space of type A by taking some regularized nonequivariant limits of their equivariant elliptic genera with respect to some torus actions. They turn out to be multiples of the elliptic genus of a…

The paper establishes a correspondence relating two specific classes of complex algebraic K3 surfaces. The first class consists of K3 surfaces polarized by the rank-sixteen lattice H+E_7+E_7. The second class consists of K3 surfaces…

We show that the classical Kuga-Satake construction gives rise, away from characteristic 2, to an open immersion from the moduli of primitively polarized K3 surfaces (of any fixed degree) to a certain regular integral model for a Shimura…

A fibration is said to be isotrivial if all of its smooth fibres are isomorphic to a single fixed variety. We classify the elliptic K3 surfaces that are isotrivial, and use them to construct Lagrangian fibrations that are isotrivial. We…

The Shafarevich conjecture for K3 surfaces asserts the finiteness of isomorphism classes of K3 surfaces over a fixed number field admitting good reduction away from a fixed finite set of finite places. Andr\'{e} proved this conjecture for…

Using results (especially see Remark 1.14.7) of our paper "Integral symmetric bilinear forms and some of their applications", 1979, we clarify relation between Kahlerian K3 surfaces and Niemeier lattices. We want to emphasise that all…

The elliptic genera of the K3 surfaces, both compact and non-compact cases, are studied by using the theory of mock theta functions. We decompose the elliptic genus in terms of the N=4 superconformal characters at level-1, and present an…

We describe a notion of lattice polarization for rational elliptic surfaces and weak del Pezzo surfaces, and describe the complex moduli of the former and the K\"{a}hler cone of the latter. We then propose a version of mirror symmetry…

For $N\geq 3$, we show Tate's conjecture for the elliptic modular surface $E(N)$ of level $N$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$ for a prime $p$ satisfying $p\equiv 1\mod N$ outside of a set of primes of density zero. We also prove a strong form of Tate's…
