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…

We study the symplectic topology of certain K3 surfaces (including the "mirror quartic" and "mirror double plane"), equipped with certain K\"ahler forms. In particular, we prove that the symplectic Torelli group may be infinitely generated,…

We show that there exists an automorphism of a projective K3 surface with Picard number $2$ such that the trace of its action on the Picard lattice is $3$. Together with a result of K. Hashimoto, J. Keum and K. Lee, we determine the set of…

We determine explicit generators for the ring of modular forms associated with the moduli spaces of K3 surfaces with automorphism group $(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})^2$ and of Picard rank 13 and higher. The K3 surfaces in question carry a…

Similarly to our papers I and II on the subject (see arXiv:1403.6061 and arXiv:1504.00326), we classify degenerations of codimension 2 and higher of Kahlerian K3 surfaces with finite symplectic automorphism groups. In parts I and II, it was…

In this paper we classify complex K3 surfaces with non-symplectic automorphism of order 8 that leaves invariant a smooth elliptic curve. We show that the rank of the Picard group is either 10, 14 or 18 and the fixed locus is the disjoint…

We study automorphism groups of fibered surfaces for finite cyclic covering fibrations of an elliptic surface. We estimate the order of a finite subgroup of automorphism groups in terms of the genus of the fiber, the genus of the base…

The present work investigates regular, semiregular, and chiral polytopes of any rank $d\geq 3$, whose automorphism groups are 2-groups. There is a large variety of rather small finite regular or alternating semiregular polytopes with…

Nikulin and Vinberg proved that there are only a finite number of lattices of rank $\geq 3$ that are the N\'eron-Severi group of projective K3 surfaces with a finite automorphism group. The aim of this paper is to provide a more geometric…

We obtain a finite set of generators for the level 2 mapping class group of a closed nonorientable surface of genus $g\ge 3$. This set consists of isotopy classes of Lickorish's Y-homeomorphisms also called crosscap slides.

We classify K3 surfaces with a non-symplectic finite automorphism of high order. It is shown that such an automorphism cannot be of order 60, and for each of the orders 38, 44, 48, 50, 54 and 66, there exists a unique K3 surface with such…

We study automorphisms of the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points on a generic projective K3 surface $S$, for any $n \geq 2$. We show that the automorphism group of $S^{[n]}$ is either trivial or generated by a non-symplectic involution and we…
