The naive analogue of the N\'eron-Ogg-Shafarevich criterion is false for K3 surfaces, that is, there exist K3 surfaces over Henselian, discretely valued fields $K$, with unramified $\ell$-adic \'etale cohomology groups, but which do not…
The Neron--Ogg--Safarevic criterion for abelian varieties tells that whether an abelian variety has good reduction or not can be determined from the Galois action on its l-adic etale cohomology. We prove an analogue of this criterion for…
We prove the KKV conjecture expressing Gromov-Witten invariants of K3 surfaces in terms of modular forms. Our results apply in every genus and for every curve class. The proof uses the Gromov-Witten/Pairs correspondence for K3-fibered…
A strongly reflective modular form with respect to an orthogonal group of signature (2,n) determines a Lorentzian Kac--Moody algebra. We find a new geometric application of such modular forms: we prove that if the weight is larger than n…
In this article we study derived (auto)equivalences of generalized Kummer varieties $\mathrm{Kum}^n(A)$. We provide an answer to a question raised by Namikawa by showing that the generalized Kummer varieties $\mathrm{Kum}^n(A)$ and…
A generalized Kummer surface $X=Km(T,G)$ is the resolution of a quotient of a torus $T$ by a finite group of symplectic automorphisms $G$. We complete the classification of generalized Kummer surfaces by studying the two last groups which…
We show that Thurston's skinning maps of Teichmuller space have finite fibers. The proof centers around a study of two subvarieties of the SL_2(C) character variety of a surface, one associated to complex projective structures and the other…
We prove that the factorization of Appell's generalized hypergeometric series satisfying the so-called quadric property into a product of two Gauss' hypergeometric functions has a geometric origin: we first construct a generalized Kummer…
We develop an explicit theory of Kummer varieties associated to Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves of genus 3, over any field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2$. In particular, we provide explicit equations defining the Kummer variety $\mathcal…
We give a description of the category of ordinary K3 surfaces over a finite field in terms of linear algebra data over Z. This gives an analogue for K3 surfaces of Deligne's description of the category of ordinary abelian varieties over a…
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…
We introduce tropical Kummer quartic surfaces in tropical projective $3$-space as the images of certain principally polarized tropical abelian surfaces under tropical theta functions of second order. We study some of their properties,…
We study the class of 2-dimensional affine k-domains R satisfying ML(R) = k, where k is an arbitrary field of characteristic zero. In particular, we obtain the following result: Let R be a localization of a polynomial ring in finitely many…
We introduce the notion of refined unramified cohomology of algebraic schemes and prove comparison theorems that identify some of these groups with cycle groups. This recovers for cycles of low codimensions on smooth projective varieties…
We prove an arithmetic Hilbert-Samuel type theorem for semi-positive singular hermitian line bundles of finite height. In particular, the theorem applies to the log-singular metrics of Burgos-Kramer-K\"uhn. Our theorem is thus suitable for…
For an abelian surface $A$, we consider stable vector bundles on a generalized Kummer variety $K_n(A)$ with $n>1$. We prove that the connected component of the moduli space which contains the tautological bundles associated to line bundles…
A Nikulin configuration is the data of $16$ disjoint smooth rational curves on a K3 surface. According to results of Nikulin, the existence of a Nikulin configuration means that the K3 surface is a Kummer surface, moreover the abelian…
We say that a normalized modular form is of CM type modulo $\ell$ by an imaginary quadratic field $K$ if its Fourier coefficients $a_p$ are congruent to $0$ modulo a prime $\mathcal L\mid \ell$ for every prime $p$ that is inert in $K$. In…
A Nikulin configuration is the data of $16$ disjoint smooth rational curves on a K3 surface. According to a well known result of Nikulin, if a K3 surface contains a Nikulin configuration $\mathcal{C}$, then $X$ is a Kummer surface $X=Km(B)$…
Let X be the quotient of a smooth projective variety over a field by a finite group action (in which case we say X is pseudo-smooth), such that the singularities of X are isolated k-rational points. Let Y be obtained by blowing up these…
