We study the surface arising from the diophantine equation $m^3+(m+1)^3+...+(m+k-1)^3=l^2$. It turns out that this is a $K3$ surface with Picard number 20. We stduy its aritmetic properties in detail. We construct elliptic fibrations on it,…

This paper studies the arithmetic of the extremal elliptic K3 surface with configuration of singular fibres [19,1,1,1,1,1]. We give a model over Q such that the Neron Severi group is generated by divisors over Q, and we describe the local…

We review recent developments in the arithmetic of K3 surfaces. Our focus lies on aspects of modularity, Picard number and rational points. Throughout we emphasise connections to geometry.

In these lecture notes we review different aspects of the arithmetic of K3 surfaces. Topics include rational points, Picard number and Tate conjecture, zeta functions and modularity.

We describe all the elliptic models with section on the Shioda supersingular K3 surface X of Artin invariant 1 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 3. In particular, we compute elliptic parameters and Weierstrass equations…

The zeta function of a K3 surface over a finite field satisfies a number of obvious (archimedean and l-adic) and a number of less obvious (p-adic) constraints. We consider the converse question, in the style of Honda-Tate: given a function…

We classify elliptic K3 surfaces in characteristic $p$ with $p^n$-torsion sections. For $p^n\geq3$ we verify conjectures of Artin and Shioda, compute the heights of their formal Brauer groups, as well as Artin invariants and Mordell--Weil…

We classify all the possible configurations of singular fibers and the torsion parts of Mordell-Weil groups of complex elliptic K3 surfaces. The complete list of 3279 configurations is attached.

This survey paper concerns elliptic surfaces with section. We give a detailed overview of the theory including many examples. Emphasis is placed on rational elliptic surfaces and elliptic K3 surfaces. To this end, we particularly review the…

We classify, up to automorphisms, the elliptic fibrations on the singular K3 surface $X$ whose transcendental lattice is isometric to $\langle 6\rangle\oplus \langle 2\rangle$.

It has recently become apparent that the elliptic genera of K3 surfaces (and their symmetric products) are intimately related to the Igusa cusp form of weight ten. In this contribution, I survey this connection with an emphasis on string…

The more recent paper "Generic strange duality for K3 surfaces" by the authors contains stronger results.

We solve the problem of counting jacobian elliptic fibrations on an arbitrary complex projective K3 surface up to automorphisms. We then illustrate our method with several explicit examples.

We present a complete list of extremal elliptic K3 surfaces. There are altogether 325 of them. The first 112 coincides with Miranda-Persson's list for semi-stable ones. The data include the transcendental lattice which determines uniquely…

This paper gives upper and lower bounds for the degree of the field of definition of a singular K3 surface, generalising a recent result by Shimada. We use work of Shioda-Mitani and Shioda-Inose and classical theory of complex…

In this paper, we demonstrate a connection between the group structure and Neron-Tate pairing on elliptic curves in an elliptic fibration with section on a K3 surface, and the structure of the ample cone for the K3 surface. Part of the…

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…

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.…

To a pair of elliptic curves, one can naturally attach two K3 surfaces: the Kummer surface of their product and a double cover of it, called the Inose surface. They have prominently featured in many interesting constructions in algebraic…
