In this dissertation classification problems for K3-surfaces with finite group actions are considered. Special emphasis is put on K3-surfaces with antisymplectic involutions and compatible actions of symplectic transformations. Given a…

Let $X$ be a K3 surface defined over a number field $K$. Assume that $X$ admits a structure of an elliptic fibration or an infinite group of automorphisms. Then there exists a finite extension $K'/K$ such that the set of $K'$-rational…

A few facts concerning the phrase "the automorphism groups become larger at special points of the moduli of K3 surfaces" are presented. It is also shown that the automorphism groups are of infinite order over a dense subset in any…

We classify Enriques surfaces with smooth K3 cover and finite automorphism group in arbitrary positive characteristic. The classification is the same as over the complex numbers except that some types are missing in small characteristics.…

We survey some recent progress in the study of algebraic varieties X with log terminal singularities, especially, the uni-ruledness of the smooth locus X^0 of X, the fundamental group of X^0 and the automorphisms group on (smooth or…

This paper concerns K3 surfaces with automorphisms of order 11 in arbitrary characteristic. Specifically we study the wild case and prove that a general such surface in characteristic 11 has Picard number 2. We also construct K3 surfaces…

We classify the group of birational automorphisms of Hilbert schemes of points on algebraic K3 surfaces of Picard rank one. We study whether these automorphisms are symplectic or non-symplectic and if there exists a hyperk\"ahler birational…

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…

In this paper we present a classification of non-symplectic automorphisms of K3 surfaces whose order is a multiple of seven by describing the topological type of their fixed locus. In the case of purely non-symplectic automorphisms, we…

We show that the non-measure hyperbolicity of K3 surfaces -- which M. Green and P. Griffiths verified for certain cases in 1980 -- holds for all K3 surfaces. As a byproduct, we prove the non-measure hyperbolicity of any Hilbert schemes of…

We give a classification of integral lattices with virtually abelian symmetry group. As a consequence, we complete the classification of K3 surfaces with virtually abelian automorphism group. In the appendix we formulate an algorithm for…

The elliptic modular surface of level 4 is a complex K3 surface with Picard number 20. This surface has a model over a number field such that its reduction modulo 3 yields a surface isomorphic to the Fermat quartic surface in characteristic…

Smooth and symplectic symmetries of an infinite family of distinct exotic $K3$ surfaces are studied, and comparison with the corresponding symmetries of the standard $K3$ is made. The action on the $K3$ lattice induced by a smooth finite…

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…

We present a method to calculate the action of the Mordell-Weil group of an elliptic K3 surface on the numerical N\'eron-Severi lattice of the K3 surface. As an application, we compute a finite generating set of the automorphism group of a…

For $\mathbb Z_3$-orbifold limits of K3, we provide a counterpart to the extensive studies by Nikulin and others of the geometry and symmetries of classical Kummer surfaces. In particular, we determine the group of holomorphic symplectic…

We study automorphisms of order four on K3 surfaces. The symplectic ones have been first studied by Nikulin, they are known to fix six points and their action on the K3 lattice is unique. In this paper we give a classification of the purely…

We use automorphic forms to prove that a compact family of Kaehler K3 surfaces with constant Picard number is isotrivial.

This is mainly a review of my results related to the title. We discuss, how many elliptic fibrations and elliptic fibrations with infinite automorphism group (or the Mordell-Weil group) an algebraic K3 surface over an algebraically closed…

We exhibit an example of a K3 surface of Picard rank $14$ with a non-symplectic automorphism of order $16$ which fixes a rational curve and $10$ isolated points. This settles the existence problem for the last case of Al Tabbaa, Sarti and…
