This paper develops families of complex Enriques surfaces whose Brauer groups pull back identically to zero on the covering K3 surfaces. Our methods rely on isogenies with Kummer surfaces of product type. We offer both lattice theoretic and…
We study endomorphism rings of principally polarized abelian surfaces over finite fields from a computational viewpoint with a focus on exhaustiveness. In particular, we address the cases of non-ordinary and non-simple varieties. For each…
We report on a new approach, as well as some related experiments, to construct families of K3 surfaces having real or complex multiplication. The approach is based on an explicit description of the transcendental part of the cohomology in a…
A K3 surface over a number field has infinitely many rational points over a finite field extension. For K3 surfaces of degree 2, arising as double covers of $\mathbb{P}^2$ branched along a smooth sextic curve, we give a bound for the degree…
We consider the symplectic action of a finite group G on a K3 surface. The Picard group of the K3 surface has a primitive sublattice determined by G. We show how to compute the rank and discriminant of this sublattice. We then describe…
We compute the algebraic $K$-theory of some classes of surfaces defined over finite fields. We achieve this by first calculating the motivic cohomology groups and then studying the motivic Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence. In an…
We give an explicit necessary condition for pairs of orders in a quartic CM-field to have the same polarised class group. This generalises a simpler result for imaginary quadratic fields. We give an application of our results to computing…
This paper gives upper and lower bounds for the degree of the field of definition of a singular K3 surface, generalising a recent result by Shimada. We use work of Shioda-Mitani and Shioda-Inose and classical theory of complex…
We study Kummer varieties attached to 2-coverings of abelian varieties of arbitrary dimension. Over a number field we show that the subgroup of odd order elements of the Brauer group does not obstruct the Hasse principle. Sufficient…
Given a magnetic finite group, we consider the similarity classes of magnetic equivariant central simple graded algebras over the complex numbers. We call this set the magnetic equivariant graded Brauer group and its structure as an abelian…
For a complex abelian variety $A$ with endomorphism ring isomorphic to the maximal order in a quartic CM-field $K$, the Igusa invariants $j_1(A), j_2(A),j_3(A)$ generate an abelian extension of the reflex field of $K$. In this paper we give…
We present a method for calculating the Brauer group of a surface given by a diagonal equation in the projective space. For diagonal quartic surfaces with coefficients in Q we determine the Brauer groups over Q and Q(i).
We study surfaces constructed from groups of units in quaternion orders $\Lambda$ over the integers in real quadratic fields k. A short presentation of some general theory of such surfaces is given, in particular, we construct certain…
We use lattice theory to study the isogeny class of a K3 surface. Starting from isotropic Brauer classes, we construct isogenies via Kneser method of neighboring lattices. We also determine the fields of definition of isogenous K3 surfaces,…
We compute explicit rational models for some Hilbert modular surfaces corresponding to square discriminants, by connecting them to moduli spaces of elliptic K3 surfaces. Since they parametrize decomposable principally polarized abelian…
Using the Dieudonne theory we will study a reduction of an abelian variety of complex multiplication. Our results may be regarded as a generalization of a classical theorem due to Deuring for a CM-elliptic curve. We will also discuss a…
Let $Y$ be a principal homogeneous space of an abelian surface, or a K3 surface, over a finitely generated extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. In 2008, Skorobogatov and Zarhin showed that the Brauer group modulo algebraic classes $\text{Br}\, Y/…
We consider central simple $K$-algebras which happen to bedifferential graded $K$-algebras. Two such algebras $A$ and $B$are considered equivalent if there are bounded complexes of finite dimensional$K$-vector spaces $C_A$ and $C_B$ such…
By using the theory of Complex Multiplication for general Siegel modular varieties we construct arithmetic subalgebras for BC-type systems attached to number fields containing a CM field. Our approach extends the construction of Connes,…
We prove a formula expressing the motivic integral (\cite{ls}) of a K3 surface over $\bC((t))$ with semi-stable reduction in terms of the associated limit Hodge structure. Secondly, for every smooth variety over a non-archimedean field we…
