In this article we consider moduli properties of singular curves on K3 surfaces. Let $\mathcal{B}_g$ denote the stack of primitively polarized K3 surfaces $(X,L)$ of genus $g$ and let $\mathcal{T}^n_{g,k} \to \mathcal{B}_g$ be the stack…

We show that certain spaces of vector valued modular forms are isomorphic to spaces of scalar valued modular forms whose Fourier coefficients are supported on suitable progressions. As an application we give a very explicit description of…

For infinitely many $d$, Hassett showed that special cubic fourfolds of discriminant $d$ are related to polarized K3 surfaces of degree $d$ via their Hodge structures. For half of the $d$, each associated K3 surface $(S,L)$ canonically…

It is a well established fact, that any projective algebraic variety is a moduli space of representations over some finite dimensional algebra. This algebra can be chosen in several ways. The counterpart in algebraic geometry is…

We compute the integral Picard group of the moduli stack of polarized K3 surfaces of fixed degree whose singularities are at most rational double points. We also compute the integral Picard group of the stack of quasi-polarized K3 surfaces,…

We define a new invariant of finitely generated representations of a finite group, with coefficients in a commutative noetherian ring. This invariant uses group cohomology and takes values in the singularity category of the coefficient…

The moduli space of degree $d$ morphisms on $\mathbb{P}^1$ has received much study. McMullen showed that, except for certain families of Latt\`es maps, there is a finite-to-one correspondence (over $\mathbb{C}$) between classes of morphisms…

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…
