In this paper we study principally polarized complex abelian varieties that admit an automorphism of order 3. It turns out that certain natural conditions on the multiplicities of its action on the differentials of the first kind do…

Let S be a K3 surface obtained as triple cover of a quadric branched along a genus 4 curve. Using the relation with cubic fourfolds, we show that S has finite dimensional motive, in the sense of Kimura. We also establish the Kuga-Satake…

We classify elliptic K3 surfaces in characteristic $p$ with $p^n$-torsion sections. For $p^n\geq3$ we verify conjectures of Artin and Shioda, compute the heights of their formal Brauer groups, as well as Artin invariants and Mordell--Weil…

We give necessary conditions for the surjectivity of the higher Gaussian maps on a polarized K3 surface. As an application, we show that the higher $k$-th Gauss map for a general curve of genus $g$ (that depends quadratically with $k$) is…

We study the singular locus on the algebraic surface $\S_n$ of genus 2 curves with a $(n, n)$-split Jacobian. Such surface was computed by Shaska in \cite{deg3} for $n=3$, and Shaska at al. in \cite{deg5} for $n=5$. We show that the…

We consider surfaces of geometric genus $3$ with the property that their transcendental cohomology splits into $3$ pieces, each piece coming from a $K3$ surface. For certain families of surfaces with this property, we can show there is a…

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…

Surfaces with concentric $K$-contours and parallel $K$-contours in Euclidean $3$-space are defined. Crucial examples are presented and characterization of them are given.

Trinomial hypersurfaces form a natural class of affine algebraic varieties closely connected with varieties admitting a torus action of complexity one. We investigate orbits of the automorphism group on these hypersurfaces. We prove that…

This paper concerns complex algebraic K3 surfaces with an automorphism which acts trivially on the Neron-Severi group. Complementing a result by Vorontsov and Kondo, we determine those K3 surfaces where the order of the automorphism is a…

Every indefinite binary form occurs as the Picard lattice of some K3-surface. The group of its isometries, or automorphs, coincides with the automorphism group of the K3-surface, but only up to finite groups. The classical theory of…

We study the geometry and codes of quartic surfaces with many cusps. We apply Gr\"obner bases to find examples of various configurations of cusps on quartics.

We study the projective models of complex K3 surfaces polarized by a line bundle L such that all smooth curves in |L| have non-general Clifford index. Such models are in a natural way contained in rational normal scrolls. We use this study…

We construct explicitly moduli curves of polarized supersingular K3 surfaces in characteristic 2 with Artin invariant 2. As an application, we detect a "jump" phenomenon in a family of automorphism groups of supersingular K3 surfaces with a…

We give more details to our examples in [9] of K3 surfaces over C such that they have infinite automorphism group but it preserves some elliptic pencil of the K3

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.

Given a polarized variety $(X,L)$, we construct and study projections of low degree $ X\dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}(H^0(L^\vee)) \dashrightarrow \mathbb P ^n $ using the associated kernel bundles. As an application, we can show that the…

We prove that all nontrivial finite subgroups of derived automorphisms of K3 surfaces of Picard number one have order two and give formulas for the numbers of their conjugacy classes. We also obtain a similar result for the subgroups which…

In this paper we compute upper bounds for the number of ordinary triple points on a hypersurface in $P^3$ and give a complete classification for degree six (degree four or less is trivial, and five is elementary). But the real purpose is to…

We prove that supersingular K3 surfaces over algebraically closed fields of characteristic at least $5$ are unirational, following a simplified form of Liedtke's strategy.
