We study K3 surfaces over non-closed fields and relate the notion of derived equivalence to arithmetic problems.

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…

In general, not much is known about the arithmetic of K3 surfaces. Once the geometric Picard number, which is the rank of the Neron-Severi group over an algebraic closure of the base field, is high enough, more structure is known and more…

We give sharp lower bounds for the degree of the syzygies involving the partial derivatives of a homogeneous polynomial defining an even dimensional nodal hypersurface. This implies the validity of formulas due to M. Saito, L. Wotzlaw and…

We generalize Mukai and Shafarevich's definitions of isogenies between K3 surfaces over $\mathbb{C}$ to an arbitrary perfect field and describe how to construct isogenous K3 surfaces over $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p$ by prescribing linear algebraic…

Let $X$ be a K3 surface defined over a number field $k$, with principal complex multiplication by a CM field $E$. We find explicit bounds, in terms of $k$ and $E$, on the size of the transcendental Brauer group…

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 give a complete classification of finite subgroups of automorphisms of K3 surfaces up to deformation. The classification is in terms of Hodge theoretic data associated to certain conjugacy classes of finite subgroups of the orthogonal…

Let $E$ be a totally real number field of degree $d$ and let $m \geqslant 3$ be an integer. We show that if $md \leqslant 21$ then there exists an $(m-2)$-dimensional family of complex projective $K3$ surfaces with real multiplication by…

We study the arithmetic of Enriques surfaces whose universal covers are singular K3 surfaces. If a singular K3 surface X has discriminant d, then it has a model over the ring class field d. Our main theorem is that the same holds true for…

Using the theory of holes of the Leech lattice and Borcherds method for the computation of the automorphism group of a K3 surface, we give an effective bound for the set of isomorphism classes of projective models of fixed degree for…

We exhibit large families of K3 surfaces with real multiplication, both abstractly using lattice theory, the Torelli theorem and the surjectivity of the period map, as well as explicitly using dihedral covers and isogenies.

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 explicitly determine the elliptic K3 surfaces with a maximal singular fibre. If the characteristic of the ground field is different from 2, for each of the two possible maximal fibre types, $I_{19}$ and $I^*_{14}$, the surface is unique.…

We give examples of non-isotrivial K3 surfaces over complex function fields with Zariski-dense rational points and N'eron-Severi rank one.

The aim of this note is to characterize a K3 surface of Klein-Mukai type in terms of its symmetry.

We give an unconditional construction of K3 surfaces over finite fields with given L-function, up to finite extensions of the base fields, under some mild restrictions on the characteristic. Previously, such results were obtained by Taelman…

We give a geometric construction of the three infinite series of K3 surfaces which are sandwiched by Kummer surfaces within a Shioda-Inose structure. Explicit examples are also provided.

Based on the result on derived categories on K3 surfaces due to Mukai and Orlov and the result concerning almost-prime numbers due to Iwaniec, we remark the following fact: For any given positive integer N, there are N (mutually…

Using Lagrangian Floer theory, we study the tropical geometry of K3 surfaces with general singular fibres. In particular, we give the local models for the type $I_n$, $II$, $III$ and $IV$ singular fibres in the Kodaira's classification and…
