We construct an explicit K3 surface over the field of rational numbers that has geometric Picard rank one, and for which there is a transcendental Brauer-Manin obstruction to weak approximation. To do so, we exploit the relationship between…

In this paper we give a characterization of the height of K3 surfaces in positive characteristic. This enables us to calculate the cycle classes of the loci in families of K3 surfaces where the height is at least h. The formulas for such…

We study perverse coherent sheaves on the resolution of rational double points. As examples, we consider rational double points on 2-dimensional moduli spaces of stable sheaves on K3 and elliptic surfaces. Then we show that perverse…

We give examples of K3 surfaces over $\mathbb{Q}$ of degree $10$ whose geometric Picard group has rank~$1$. These K3 surfaces are intersections in $\mathbb{P}^9$ of three hyperplanes, one quadric and the image of the Pl\"ucker embedding of…

We discuss some aspects of the behavior of specialization at a finite place of N\'eron-Severi groups of K3 surfaces over number fields. We give optimal lower bounds for the Picard number of such specializations, thus answering a question of…

It was shown by Mukai that the maximum order of a finite group acting faithfully and symplectically on a K3 surface is 960 and if such a group has order 960, then it is isomorphic to the Mathieu group $M_{20}$. In this paper, we are…

Under the assumption of the Hodge, Tate and Fontaine-Mazur conjectures we give a criterion for a compatible system of l-adic representations to be isomorphic to the second cohomology of a K3 surface.

In this paper, we give Thomae type formula for \KK surfaces $\cS$ given by double covers of the projective plane branching along six lines. This formula gives relations between theta constants on the bounded symmetric domain of type…

Motivated by the study of the growth rate of the number of geodesics in flat surfaces with bounded lengths, we study generalizations of such problems for K3 surfaces. In one generalization, we give a result regarding the upper bound on the…

We construct new examples of rational Gushel-Mukai fourfolds, giving more evidence for the analog of the Kuznetsov Conjecture for cubic fourfolds: a Gushel--Mukai fourfold is rational if and only if it admits an associated K3 surface.

We test R. van Luijk's method for computing the Picard group of a $K3$ surface. The examples considered are the resolutions of Kummer quartics in $\bP^3$. Using the theory of abelian varieties, in this case, the Picard group may be computed…

We prove that the moduli spaces of K3 surfaces with non-symplectic involutions are unirational. As a by-product we describe configuration spaces of 4<d<9 points in the projective plane as arithmetic quotients of type IV.

Let K be a field of characteristic zero. We describe an algorithm which requires a homogeneous polynomial F of degree three in K[x_0,x_1,x_2,x_3] and a zero A of F in P^3_K and ensures a linear pfaffian representation of V(F) with entries…

It is known that K3 surfaces S whose Picard number rho (= rank of the Neron-Severi group of S) is at least 19 are parametrized by modular curves X, and these modular curves X include various Shimura modular curves associated with congruence…

We prove that any proper Fourier-Mukai partner of an abelian variety is again an abelian variety, by analyzing the Matsui spectrum of the derived category. This result was previously obtained by Huybrechts and Nieper-Wisskirchen in the case…

On a Weierstrass elliptic surface, we describe the action of the relative Fourier-Mukai transform on the geometric chamber of $\mathrm{Stab}(X)$, and in the K3 case we also study the action on one of its boundary components. Using new…

We study surfaces constructed from groups of units in quaternion orders $\Lambda$ over the integers in real quadratic fields k. A short presentation of some general theory of such surfaces is given, in particular, we construct certain…

We show that normal K3 surfaces with ten cusps exist in and only in characteristic 3. We determine these K3 surfaces according to the degrees of the polarizations. Explicit examples are given.

We characterize the Artin invariant of a smooth K3 hypersurface in terms of quasi-$F$-splitting. As an application, we obtain an explicit formula for this invariant.

We compare the moonshine observation of Eguchi, Ooguri and Tachikawa relating the Mathieu group M_24 and the complex elliptic genus of a K3 surface with the symmetries of geometric structures on K3 surfaces. Two main results are that the…
