We classify K3 surfaces with a non-symplectic finite automorphism of high order. It is shown that such an automorphism cannot be of order 60, and for each of the orders 38, 44, 48, 50, 54 and 66, there exists a unique K3 surface with such…

We construct Zariski K3 surfaces of Artin invariant 1, 2 and 3 in many characteristics. In particular, we prove that any supersingular Kummer surface is Zariski if the characteristic is not congruent to 1 modulo 12. Our methods combine…

A K3 surface $X$ over a $p$-adic field $K$ is said to have good reduction if it admits a proper smooth model over the ring of integers of $K$. Assuming this, we say that a subgroup $G$ of $\mathrm{Aut}(X)$ is extendable if $X$ admits a…

We first classify the possible configurations of fibrations which are not semi-stable on extremal elliptic K3 surfaces. Then we give a complete list of extremal elliptic K3 surfaces whose singular fibers are all not of type $I_n$.

In each characteristic $p\neq 2, 3$, it was shown in a previous work that the order of an automorphism of a K3 surface is bounded by 66, if finite. Here, it is shown that in each characteristic $p\neq 2, 3$ a K3 surface with a cyclic action…

In 2009, Dolgachev-Keum showed that finite groups of tame symplectic automorphisms of K3 surfaces in positive characteristics are subgroups of the Mathieu group of degree 23. In this paper, we utilize lattice-theoretic methods to…

In this paper we provide a complete classification of non-symplectic automorphisms of order nine of complex K3 surfaces.

We classify smooth locally free actions of the real affine group on closed orientable three-dimensional manifolds up to smooth conjugacy. As a corollary, there exists a non-homogeneous action when the manifold is the unit tangent bundle of…

We proved the existence of rational curves in every linear system on a general K3 surface and that all rational curves in the hyperplane class are nodal on a general K3 surface of small genus.

In this paper, we give an explicit construction of higher Chow cycles of type $(2,1)$ on $K3$ surfaces obtained as quadruple coverings of the projective plane ramified along smooth quartics. The construction uses a pair of bitangents of the…

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…

We construct a modular compactification via stable slc pairs for the moduli spaces of K3 surfaces with a nonsymplectic group of automorphisms under the assumption that some combination of the fixed loci of automorphisms defines an effective…

We consider $\mu_p$- and $\alpha_p$-actions on RDP K3 surfaces (K3 surfaces with rational double point singularities allowed) in characteristic $p > 0$. We study possible characteristics, quotient surfaces, and quotient singularities. It…

Let S be a K3 surface that admits a non-symplectic automorphism $\rho$ of order 3. We divide $S\times \mathbb{P}^1$ by $\rho\times\psi$ where $\psi$ is an automorphism of order 3 of $\mathbb{P}^1$. There exists a threefold ramified cover of…

We classify possible finite groups of symplectic automorphisms of K3 surfaces of order divisible by 11. The characteristic of the ground field must be equal to 11. The complete list of such groups consists of five groups: the cyclic group…

We determine all complex K3 surfaces with Picard rank 20 over Q. Here the Neron-Severi group has rank 20 and is generated by divisors which are defined over Q. Our proof uses modularity, the Artin-Tate conjecture and class group theory.…

A product of a K3 surface $S$ and a flat 3-dimensional torus $T^3$ is a manifold with holonomy $SU(2)$. Since $SU(2)$ is a subgroup of $G_2$, $S\times T^3$ carries a torsion-free $G_2$-structure. We assume that $S$ admits an action of…

We consider complex K3 surfaces with a non-symplectic group acting trivially on the algebraic cycles. Vorontsov and Kondo classified those K3 surfaces with transcendental lattice of minimal rank. The purpose of this note is to study the…

Kummer surfaces are special quartic surfaces that admit $16$ nodes. The automorphisms of K3 Kummer surfaces are rich and complicated. Based on the results of Keum and Kond\=o, and as a continuation of the recent result by He and Yang, we…

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…
