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 will calculate the essential dimension of the moduli stack of polarized K3 surfaces, including the positive char case.

Motivated by the relation between (twisted) K3 surfaces and special cubic fourfolds, we construct moduli spaces of polarized twisted K3 surfaces of any fixed degree and order. We do this by mimicking the construction of the moduli space of…

We prove that the moduli space of smooth primitively polarized $\mathrm{K3}$ surfaces of genus 33 is unirational.

We show that the Hodge numbers of the moduli space of stable rank two sheaves with primitive determinant on a K3 surface coincide with the Hodge numbers of an appropriate Hilbert scheme of points on the K3 surface. The precise result is:…

We provide explicit descriptions of the generic members of Hassett's divisors $\mathcal C_d$ for relevant $18\leq d\leq 38$ and for $d=44$. In doing so, we prove that $\mathcal C_d$ is unirational for $18\leq d\leq 38,d=44$. As a corollary,…

We prove that there exists a number field $\fie$ and a smooth projective $\mathrm{K3}$ surface $S_{22}$ (of genus $12$) over $\fie$ such that the geometric Picard number of $S_{22}$ is equal to $1$ and the $\fie$-rational points of $S_{22}$…

For any field k of characteristic at most 5 we exhibit an explicit smooth quartic surface in projective threespace over k with trivial automorphism group over the algebraic closure of k. We also show how this can be extended to higher…

The present article is concerned with mirror symmetry for generalized K3 surfaces, with particular emphasis on complex and K\"ahler rigid structures. Inspired by the works of Dolgachev, Aspinwall-Morrison and Huybrechts, we introduce a…

We show that on every elliptic K3 surface $X$ there are rational curves $(R_i)_{i\in \mathbb{N}}$ such that $R_i^2 \to \infty$, i.e., of unbounded arithmetic genus. Moreover, we show that the union of the lifts of these curves to…

Using lattice theory, Hulek and Sch\"utt proved that for every $m\in\mathbb{Z}_+$ there exists a nine-dimensional family $\mathcal{F}_m$ of K3 surfaces covering Enriques surfaces having an elliptic pencil with a rational bisection of…

Let $X$ be a K3 surface, and $H$ its primitive polarization of the degree $H^2=2rs$, $r,s\ge 1$. The moduli space of sheaves over $X$ with the isotropic Mukai vector $(r,H,s)$ is again a K3 surface, $Y$. In math.AG/0206158, math.AG/0304415…

We proved that the union of rational curves is dense on a very general K3 surface and the union of elliptic curves is dense in the 1st jet space of a very general K3 surface, both in the strong topology.

We show that, up to some natural normalizations, the moduli space of singly periodic complete embedded maximal surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski space $\l^3=(\r^3,dx_1^2+dx_2^2-dx_3^2),$ with fundamental piece having a finite number $(n+1)$…

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…

Given a polarized variety $(X,L)$, we construct and study projections of low degree $ X\dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}(H^0(L^\vee)) \dashrightarrow \mathbb P ^n $ using the associated kernel bundles. As an application, we can show that the…

We review a proof of the well know result stating that moduli spaces of stable sheaves with fixed Chern character on a polarized $K3$ surface are deformations of a hyperk\"ahler variety of Type $K3^{[n]}$ (if a suitable numerical hypothesis…

In this article we will show that there are infinitely many symmetric, integral 3 x 3 matrices, with zeros on the diagonal, whose eigenvalues are all integral. We will do this by proving that the rational points on a certain non-Kummer,…

In the moduli space of polarized varieties the same unpolarized variety can occur multiple times However, for K3 surfaces, compact hyperk\"ahler manifolds, and abelian varieties the number is finite. This may be viewed as a consequence of…
