K3 surfaces with an order 50 automorphism

Algebraic Geometry 2015-02-06 v1

Abstract

In any characteristic different from 2 and 5, Kond\=o gave an example of a K3 surface with a purely non-symplectic automorphism of order 50. The surface was explicitly given as a double plane branched along a smooth sextic curve. In this note we show that, in any characteristic p2,5p\neq 2, 5, a K3 surface with a cyclic action of order 50 is isomorphic to the example of Kond\=o.
