To a pair of elliptic curves, one can naturally attach two K3 surfaces: the Kummer surface of their product and a double cover of it, called the Inose surface. They have prominently featured in many interesting constructions in algebraic…

A $K3$ surface with an ample divisor of self-intersection 2 is a double cover of the plane branched over a sextic curve. We conjecture that a similar statement holds for the generic couple $(X,H)$ with $X$ a deformation of $(K3)^{[n]}$ and…

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…

Let $X$ be a double EPW sextic, and $\iota$ its anti-symplectic involution. We relate the $\iota$-anti-invariant part of the Chow group of zero-cycles of $X$ with Voisin's rational orbit filtration. For a general double EPW sextic $X$, we…

In this work we classify all smooth surfaces with geometric genus equal to three and an action of a group G isomorphic to (Z/2)^k such that the quotient is a plane. We find 11 families. We compute the canonical map of all of them, finding…

Eisenbud Popescu and Walter have constructed certain special 4-dimensional sextic hypersurfaces as Lagrangian degeneracy loci. We prove that the natural double cover of a generic EPW-sextic is a deformation of the Hilbert square of a…

We consider two K3 surfaces defined over an arbitrary field, together with a smooth proper moduli space of stable sheaves on each. When the moduli spaces have the same dimension, we prove that if the \'etale cohomology groups (with Q_ell…

Double EPW quartics are hyperk\"ahler varieties of dimension 4, first introduced by Iliev, Kapustka, Kapustka, and Ranestad. The general double EPW quartic is isomorphic to a moduli space of twisted sheaves on a $K3$ surface. They have a…

We study the geometry of the K3 surfaces $X$ with a finite number automorphisms and Picard number $\geq 3$. We describe these surfaces classified by Nikulin and Vinberg as double covers of simpler surfaces or embedded in a projective space.…

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…

This paper treats the theory of Mukai duality on K3 surfaces from the differential geometric perspective, taylored to the need of the author's companion paper about Mukai duality of adiabatic coassociative K3 fibrations.

Ebeling and Ploog \cite{EbelingPloog} studied a duality of bimodular singularities which is part of the Berglund--H$\ddot{\textnormal{u}}$bsch mirror symmetry. Mase and Ueda \cite{MU} showed that this duality leads to a polytope mirror…

Elliptic fibrations of $K3$ surfaces belonging to the Ap\'ery-Fermi pencil ($Y_k$) may have $2$ or $3$-torsion sections defining on $(Y_k)$ automorphisms $\tau$ of order $2$ or $3$. First we consider $Y_{k}/\tau$ \ for some fibrations of…
