We consider the connected-sum method of constructing compact Riemannian 7-manifolds with holonomy G_2 developed in math.DG/0012189. The method requires pairs of projective complex threefolds endowed with anticanonical K3 divisors, the…

Classification of real K3 surfaces X with a non-symplectic involution \tau is considered. For some exactly defined and one of the weakest possible type of degeneration (giving the very reach discriminant), we show that the connected…

We determine the wall divisors on irreducible symplectic orbifolds which are deformation equivalent to a special type of examples, called Nikulin orbifolds. The Nikulin orbifolds are obtained as partial resolutions in codimension 2 of a…

This article primarily aims at classifying, on certain K3 surfaces, the elliptic fibrations induced by conic bundles on smooth del Pezzo surfaces. The key geometric tool employed is the Alexeev-Nikulin correspondence between del Pezzo…

We study moduli spaces of lattice-polarized K3 surfaces in terms of orbits of representations of algebraic groups. In particular, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, we show that in many cases, the nondegenerate orbits…

A Nikulin configuration is the data of $16$ disjoint smooth rational curves on a K3 surface. According to a well known result of Nikulin, if a K3 surface contains a Nikulin configuration $\mathcal{C}$, then $X$ is a Kummer surface $X=Km(B)$…

Components of the Moduli space of sheaves on a K3 surface are parametrized by a lattice; the (algebraic) Mukai lattice. Isometries of the Mukai lattice often lift to symplectic birational isomorphisms of the collection of components. An…

We study non-symplectic involutions on irreducible symplectic manifolds of K3^{[2]}-type with 19 parameters, which is the second largest possible. We classify the conjugacy classes of cohomological representations into four different types…

We classify prime order isogenies between algebraic K3 surfaces whose rational transcendental Hodges structures are not isometric. The morphisms of Hodge structures induced by these isogenies are correspondences by algebraic classes on the…

A $K3$ surface with an ample divisor of self-intersection 2 is a double cover of the plane branched over a sextic curve. We conjecture that a similar statement holds for the generic couple $(X,H)$ with $X$ a deformation of $(K3)^{[n]}$ and…

Let F^N_g be the moduli space of polarized Nikulin surfaces (Y,H) of genus g and let P^N_g be the moduli of triples (Y,H,C), with C in |H| a smooth curve. We study the natural map \chi_g:P^N_g -> R_g, where R_g is the moduli space of Prym…

We consider N-point deformation of algebraic K3 surfaces. First, we construct two-point deformation of algebraic K3 surfaces by considering algebraic deformation of a pair of commutative algebraic K3 surfaces. In this case, the moduli space…

We study the geometry of some moduli spaces of twisted sheaves on K3 surfaces. In particular we introduce induced automorphisms from a K3 surface on moduli spaces of twisted sheaves on this K3 surface. As an application we prove the…

Nikulin and Vinberg proved that there are only a finite number of lattices of rank $\geq 3$ that are the N\'eron-Severi group of projective K3 surfaces with a finite automorphism group. The aim of this paper is to provide a more geometric…

We construct explicitly moduli curves of polarized supersingular K3 surfaces in characteristic 2 with Artin invariant 2. As an application, we detect a "jump" phenomenon in a family of automorphism groups of supersingular K3 surfaces with a…

Given a symplectic involution $\iota$ on a K3 surface $X$, the desingularization $Y$ of $X/\iota$ is still a K3 surface, which in general has a different N\'eron--Severi group. Nevertheless, if the involution is induced by the translation…

Nikulin-type orbifolds are certain singular 4-dimensional irreducible holomorphic symplectic varieties. We show that the monodromy group of Nikulin-type orbifolds is maximal and classify finite order symplectic automorphisms up to…

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.

We study the geometry of the K3 surfaces $X$ with a finite number automorphisms and Picard number $\geq 3$. We describe these surfaces classified by Nikulin and Vinberg as double covers of simpler surfaces or embedded in a projective space.…

We survey our contributions on the classification of elliptic fibrations on K3 surfaces with a non-symplectic involution. We place them in the more general framework of K3 surfaces with an involution without any hypothesis on its fixed…
