We prove general type results for orthogonal modular varieties associated with the moduli of compact hyperk\"ahler manifolds of deformation generalised Kummer type ('deformation generalised Kummer varieties'). In particular, we consider…

We show that the Coble hypersurfaces, uniquely characterized by the remarkable property that their singular loci are an abelian surface and a Kummer threefold, respectively, belong to a family of hypersurfaces exhibiting similar behavior,…

In this note we prove analogues of the main theorems of complex multiplication for abelian varieties for K3 surfaces. This is done by studying the field of definition of the period morphism for complex K3 surfaces. More precisely we relate…

Let $(F,J,\omega)$ be an almost K\"ahler manifold, $\alpha$ a $J$-holomorphic action of a compact Lie group $\hat K$ on $F$, and $K$ a closed normal subgroup of $\hat K$ which leaves $\omega$ invariant. We introduce gauge theoretical…

In arXiv:1710.01672, we obtained general type results for orthogonal modular varieties associated with moduli spaces of compact hyperk\"ahler manifolds of deformation generalised Kummer type (also known as 'deformation generalised Kummer…

Given a smooth projective variety $M$ endowed with a faithful action of a finite group $G$, following Jarvis-Kaufmann-Kimura and Fantechi-G\"ottsche, we define the orbifold motive (or Chen-Ruan motive) of the quotient stack $[M/G]$ as an…

Generalized Calabi-Yau structures, a notion recently introduced by Hitchin, are studied in the case of K3 surfaces. We show how they are related to the classical theory of K3 surfaces and to moduli spaces of certain SCFT as studied by…

We study a family of lattice polarized $K3$ surfaces which is an extension of the family of Kummer surfaces derived from principally polarized Abelian surfaces. Our family has two special properties. First, it is coming from a resolution of…

Starting from the K\"ahler moduli space of the rigid orbifold Z=E^3/\mathbb{Z}_3 one would expect for the cohomology of the generalized mirror to be a Hodge structure of Calabi-Yau type (1,9,9,1). We show that such a structure arises in a…

By carrying out a rational transformation on the base curve $\mathbb{CP}^1$ of the Seiberg-Witten curve for $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric pure $\mathrm{SU}(2)$-gauge theory, we obtain a family of Jacobian elliptic K3 surfaces of Picard…

We address the problem of classification of hyper-K\"ahler fourfolds with $b_2=23$. In particular we prove some special cases of the Conjecture of O'Grady about hyper-K\"ahler $4$-folds numerically equivalent to the Hilbert scheme of two…

A K3 surface is a quaternionic analogue of an elliptic curve from a view point of moduli of vector bundles. We can prove the algebraicity of certain Hodge cycles and a rigidity of curve of genus eleven and gives two kind of descriptions of…

Arithmetic of K3 surfaces defined over finite fields is investigated. In particular, we show that any K3 surface of finite height over a finite field k of characteristic p > 3 has a quasi-canonical lifting to characteristic 0, and that for…

Compact hyperkaehler manifolds are higher-dimensional generalizations of K3 surfaces. The classical Global Torelli theorem for K3 surfaces, however, does not hold in higher dimensions. More precisely, a compact hyperkaehler manifold is in…

The Hessian of a general cubic surface is a nodal quartic surface, hence its desingularisation is a K3 surface. We determine the transcendental lattice of the Hessian K3 surface for various cubic surfaces (with nodes and/or Eckardt points…

We give a description of the category of ordinary K3 surfaces over a finite field in terms of linear algebra data over Z. This gives an analogue for K3 surfaces of Deligne's description of the category of ordinary abelian varieties over a…

We prove that the integral Hodge conjecture holds for 1-cycles on irreducible holomorphic symplectic varieties of K3 type and of Generalized Kummer type. As an application, we give a new proof of the integral Hodge conjecture for cubic…

We study almost complex surfaces in the nearly K\"ahler $S^3\times S^3$. We show that there is a local correspondence between almost complex surfaces and solutions of the H-surface equation introduced by Wente. We find a global holomorphic…

K3 surfaces play a prominent role in string theory and algebraic geometry. The properties of their enumerative invariants have important consequences in black hole physics and in number theory. To a K3 surface string theory associates an…

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…
