Symplectic Automorphisms on Kummer Surfaces

چکیده
Nikulin proved that the isometries induced on the second cohomology group of a K3 surface X by a finite abelian group G of symplectic automorphisms are essentially unique. Moreover he computed the discriminant of the sublattice of H(X,Z) which is fixed by the isometries induced by G. However for certain groups these discriminants are not the same of those found for explicit examples. Here we describe Kummer surfaces for which this phenomena happens and we explain the difference.

Kummer Surfaces and K3 Surfaces with (z/2z) Symplectic Action
In the first part of this paper we give a survey of classical results on Kummer surfaces with Picard number 17 from the point of view of lattice theory. We prove ampleness properties for certain divisors on Kummer surfaces and we use them to describe projective models of Kummer surfaces of (1, d)polarized Abelian surfaces for d = 1, 2, 3. As a consequence we prove that in these cases the Néron–...
متن کاملThe Dihedral Group D5 as Group of Symplectic Automorphisms on K3 Surfaces
We prove that if a K3 surface X admits Z/5Z as group of symplectic automorphisms, then it actually admits D5 as group of symplectic automorphisms. The orthogonal complement to the D5-invariants in the second cohomology group of X is a rank 16 lattice, L. It is known that L does not depend on X: we prove that it is isometric to a lattice recently described by R. L. Griess Jr. and C. H. Lam. We a...
متن کاملBirational Automorphisms of Quartic Hessian Surfaces
We find generators of the group of birational automorphisms of the Hessian surface of a general cubic surface. Its nonsingular minimal model is a K3 surface with the Picard lattice of rank 16 which embeds naturally in the even unimodular lattice II1,25 of rank 26 and signature (1, 25). The generators are related to reflections with respect to some Leech roots. A similar observation was made fir...
متن کاملElliptic K3 Surfaces with Abelian and Dihedral Groups of Symplectic Automorphisms
We analyze K3 surfaces admitting an elliptic fibration E and a finite group G of symplectic automorphisms preserving this elliptic fibration. We construct the quotient elliptic fibration E/G comparing its properties to the ones of E. We show that if E admits an n-torsion section, its quotient by the group of automorphisms induced by this section admits again an n-torsion section. Considering au...
متن کاملEla Dihedral Groups of Automorphisms of Compact Riemann Surfaces of Genus Two
In this short note, the conjugacy classes of finite dihedral subgroups of the 4 × 4 integral symplectic group are considered. A complete list of representatives of the classes is obtained, among them six classes are realizable by analytic automorphisms of compact connected Riemann surfaces of genus two.
