In this short note we prove that an involution on certain examples of surfaces of general type with $p_g=0$, acts as identity on the Chow group of zero cycles of the relevant surface. In particular we consider examples of such surfaces when…

Chisini's conjecture asserts that for a cuspidal curve $B\subset \mathbb P^2$ a generic morphism $f$ of a smooth projective surface onto $\mathbb P^2$ of degree $\geq 5$, branched along $B$, is unique up to isomorphism. We prove that if…

We show that for a K3 surface X the finitely generated subring R(X) of the Chow ring introduced by Beauville and Voisin is preserved under derived equivalences. This is proved by analyzing Chern characters of spherical bundles. As for a K3…

Given a general K3 surface S of degree 18, lattice theoretic considerations allow to predict the existence of an anti-symplectic birational involution $\phi$ of the Hilbert cube $S^{[3]}$. We describe this involution in terms of the Mukai…

Let X be a surface with quotient singularities which admits a smoothing to the plane. We prove that X is a deformation of a weighted projective plane P(a^2,b^2,c^2), where a,b,c is a solution of the Markov equation a^2+b^2+c^2=3abc. We also…

Given a finite field k of characteristic at least 5, we show that the Tate conjecture holds for K3 surfaces defined over the algebraic closure of k if and only if there are only finitely many K3 surfaces over each finite extension of k.

Let C be a Brill-Noether-Petri curve of genus g\geq 12. We prove that C lies on a polarized K3 surface, or on a limit thereof, if and only if the Gauss-Wahl map for C is not surjective. The proof is obtained by studying the validity of two…

We prove a version of the Kawamata-Morrison ample cone conjecture for projective irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds deformation equivalent to either the Hilbert scheme of n points on a K3 surface, or a generalized Kummer variety.

We investigate the interplay between the moduli spaces of ample <2>-polarized IHS manifolds of type K3^[2] and of IHS manifolds of type K3^[2] with a nonsymplectic involution with invariant lattice of rank one. In particular we…

We show that every possible value for the Clifford index and gonality of a curve of a given genus on a $K3$ surface occurs.

For a smooth projective variety X, let CH(X) be the Chow ring (with rational coefficients) of algebraic cycles modulo rational equivalence. The conjectures of Bloch and Beilinson predict the existence of a functorial ring filtration of…

We give necessary conditions for the surjectivity of the higher Gaussian maps on a polarized K3 surface. As an application, we show that the higher $k$-th Gauss map for a general curve of genus $g$ (that depends quadratically with $k$) is…

It is proved that if $S\subset \mathbb P^N$ is a smooth projective surface and $f:S\to \mathbb P^2$ is a generic linear projection branched over a cuspidal curve $B\subset \mathbb P^2$, then the surface $S$ is determined uniquely up to an…

We prove the KKV conjecture expressing Gromov-Witten invariants of K3 surfaces in terms of modular forms. Our results apply in every genus and for every curve class. The proof uses the Gromov-Witten/Pairs correspondence for K3-fibered…

Let $K\subseteq S^3$ be a knot with exterior $E_K$, and denote by $\rho\colon \pi_1(E_K)\twoheadrightarrow G$ a quotient of its group. We give a sharp obstruction to the existence of a connected, oriented, smooth surface $F\subseteq B^4$…

We prove the Hodge-D-conjecture for general K3 and Abelian surfaces. Some consequences of this result, e.g., on the levels of higher Chow groups of products of elliptic curves, are discussed.

In this note we are going to consider a smooth projective surface equipped with an involution and study the action of the involution at the level of Chow group of zero cycles.

The Shafarevich conjecture for K3 surfaces asserts the finiteness of isomorphism classes of K3 surfaces over a fixed number field admitting good reduction away from a fixed finite set of finite places. Andr\'{e} proved this conjecture for…

We discuss the role of K3 surfaces in the context of Mercat's conjecture in higher rank Brill-Noether theory. Using liftings of Koszul classes, we show that Mercat's conjecture in rank 2 fails for any number of sections and for any gonality…

We show that there is a surjection from the Fourier-Mukai transformations on projective K3 surfaces with the Picard number $\rho (X)=1$ to so called to the group of Atkin-Lehner involutions. This was expected in Hosono-Lian-Oguiso-Yau's…
