Let $G$ be a finite abelian group which acts symplectically on a K3 surface. The N\'eron-Severi lattice of the projective K3 surfaces admitting $G$ symplectic action and with minimal Picard number is computed by Garbagnati and Sarti. We…

Let S be a K3 surface that admits a non-symplectic automorphism $\rho$ of order 3. We divide $S\times \mathbb{P}^1$ by $\rho\times\psi$ where $\psi$ is an automorphism of order 3 of $\mathbb{P}^1$. There exists a threefold ramified cover of…

We show that automorphism groups of Hopf and Kodaira surfaces have unbounded finite subgroups. For elliptic fibrations on Hopf, Kodaira, bielliptic, and K3 surfaces, we make some observations on finite groups acting along the fibers and on…

We determine the automorphism group of an open log K3 surface with irreducible boundary.

We examine the finite group actions on K3 and Abelian surfaces giving the same orbit space after desingularization. We show that when the group is not Z_2, then the Picard number of the K3 surface must be 19 or 20, and that in the latter…

If a K3 surface admits an automorphism with a Siegel disk, then its Picard number is an even integer between $0$ and $18$. Conversely, using the method of hypergeometric groups, we are able to construct K3 surface automorphisms with Siegel…

Nikulin has classified all finite abelian groups acting symplectically on a K3 surface and he has shown that the induced action on the K3 lattice $U^3\oplus E_8(-1)^2$ depends only on the group but not on the K3 surface. For all the groups…

By the fundamental result of I.I. Piatetsky-Shapiro and I.R. Shafarevich (1971), the automorphism group Aut(X) of a K3 surface X over C and its action on the Picard lattice S_X are prescribed by the Picard lattice S_X. We use this result…

We shall give, in an optimal form, a sufficient numerical condition for the finiteness of the fundamental group of the smooth locus of a normal K3 surface. We shall moreover prove that, if the normal K3 surface is elliptic and the above…

We give construction of singular K3 surfaces with discriminant 3 and 4 as double coverings over the projective plane. Focusing on the similarities in their branching loci, we can generalize this construction, and obtain a three dimensional…

The moduli space of K3 surfaces $X$ with a purely non-symplectic automorphism $\sigma$ of order $n\geq 2$ is one dimensional exactly when $\varphi(n)=8$ or $10$. In this paper we classify and give explicit equations for the very general…

We derive a characterization of the complex projective K3 surfaces which have automorphisms of positive entropy in term of their N\'eron-Severi lattices. Along the way, we classify the projective K3 surfaces of zero entropy with infinite…

We consider the natural action of a finite group on the moduli space of polarized K3 surfaces which induces a duality defined by Mukai for surfaces of this type. We show that the group permutes polarized Fourier-Mukai partners of polarized…

For an ordinary K3 surface over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic we show that every automorphism lifts to characteristic zero. Moreover, we show that the Fourier-Mukai partners of an ordinary K3 surface are in…

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…

The aim of this paper is to give an explicit description of the fixed loci of symplectic automorphisms for certain hyperkahler manifolds, namely for Hilbert schemes on K3 surfaces and for generalized Kummer varieties. Here we extend our…

We present a finite set of generators of the automorphism group of a supersingular K3 surface with Artin invariant 1 in characteristic 3.

The present paper proves that finite symplectic groups of automorphisms of hyperk\"ahler fourfolds deformation equivalent to the Hilbert scheme of two points on a $K3$ surface are contained in the simple group $Co_1$. Then we give an…

In this paper we study K3 surfaces with a non-symplectic automorphism of order 3. In particular, we classify the topological structure of the fixed locus of such automorphisms and we show that it determines the action on cohomology. This…
