On automorphisms of Enriques surfaces and their entropy

Consider an arbitrary automorphism of an Enriques surface with its lift to the covering K3 surface. We prove a bound of the order of the lift acting on the anti‐invariant cohomology sublattice of the Enriques involution. We use it to obtain some mod 2 constraint on the original automorphism. As an application, we give a necessary condition for Salem numbers to be dynamical degrees on Enriques surfaces and obtain a new lower bound on the minimal value. In the Appendix, we give a complete list of Salem numbers that potentially could be the minimal dynamical degree on Enriques surfaces and for which the existence of geometric automorphisms is unknown.     

Complex projective structures with maximal number of Möbius transformations

We consider complex projective structures on Riemann surfaces and their groups of projective automorphisms. We show that the structures achieving the maximal possible number of projective automorphisms allowed by their genus are precisely the Fuchsian uniformizations of Hurwitz surfaces by hyperbolic metrics. More generally we show that Galois Bely? curves are precisely those Riemann surfaces for which the Fuchsian uniformization is the unique complex projective structure invariant under the full group of biholomorphisms.     

Elliptic K3 Surfaces with Abelian and Dihedral Groups of Symplectic Automorphisms

We analyze K3 surfaces admitting an elliptic fibration ? and a finite group G of symplectic automorphisms preserving this elliptic fibration. We construct the quotient elliptic fibration ?/G comparing its properties to the ones of ?.

We show that if ? admits an n-torsion section, its quotient by the group of automorphisms induced by this section admits again an n-torsion section, and we describe the coarse moduli space of K3 surfaces with a given finite group contained in the Mordell–Weil group.

Considering automorphisms coming from the base of the fibration, we find the Mordell–Weil lattice of a fibration described by Kloosterman, and we find K3 surfaces with dihedral groups as group of symplectic automorphisms. We prove the isometries between lattices described by the author and Sarti and lattices described by Shioda and by Greiss and Lam.     

Trialitarian automorphisms of lie algebras

Over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero simple Lie algebras admit outer automorphisms of order 3 if and only if they are of type D₄. Moreover, thereare two conjugacy classes of such automorphisms. Among orthogonal Lie algebras over arbitrary fields of characteristic zero, only orthogonal Lie algebras relative to quadratic norm forms of Cayley algebras admit outer automorphisms of order 3. We give a complete list of conjugacy classes of outer automorphisms of order 3 for orthogonal Lie algebras over arbitrary fields of characteristic zero. For the norm form of a given Cayley algebra, one class is associated with the Cayley algebra and the others with central simple algebras of degree 3 with involution of the second kind such that the cohomological invariant of the involution is the norm form.     

Constructing flag-transitive,point-imprimitive designs

We give a construction of a family of designs with a specified point-partition and determine the subgroup of automorphisms leaving invariant the point-partition. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a design in the family to possess a flag-transitive group of automorphisms preserving the specified point-partition. We give examples of flag-transitive designs in the family, including a new symmetric 2-(1408,336,80) design with automorphism group \(2^{12}:((3\cdot \mathrm {M}_{22}):2)\) and a construction of one of the families of the symplectic designs (the designs \(S^-(n)\)) exhibiting a flag-transitive, point-imprimitive automorphism group.

Generalized Shioda–Inose structures on K3 surfaces

In this note, we study the action of finite groups of symplectic automorphisms on K3 surfaces which yield quotients birational to generalized Kummer surfaces. For each possible group, we determine the Picard number of the K3 surface admitting such an action and for singular K3 surfaces we show the uniqueness of the associated abelian surface.

Some bounds for the number of coincidences of morphisms between closed riemann surfaces

We give some bounds for the number of coincidences of two morphisms between given compact Riemann surfaces (complete complex algebraic curves) which generalize well known facts about the number of fixed points of automorphisms. In the particular case in which both surfaces are hyperelliptic, our results permit us to obtain a bound for the number of morphisms between them. The proof relies on the idea, first used by Schwarz in the case of automorphisms, of representing a morphism by its action on the set of Weierstrass points.     

Invariant Logics

A moda logic Λ is called invariant if for all automorphisms α of NExt K , α(Λ) = Λ. An invariant ogic is therefore unique y determined by its surrounding in the attice. It wi be established among other that a extensions of K.alt ₁ S4.3 and G.3 are invariant ogics. Apart from the results that are being obtained, this work contributes to the understanding of the combinatorics of finite frames in genera, something wich has not been done except for transitive frames. Certain useful concepts will be established, such as the notion of a d‐homogeneous frame.     

An icer approach to the theory of minimal flows

We study minimal flows by studying a universal minimal flow, invariant closed equivalence relations (icers) on it, subgroups of its group of automorphisms, and the interplay among these objects. As examples of this approach we discuss and give short proofs of some standard results on distal flows. We end with a statement of the Furstenberg structure theorem from this point of view.     

Action of the Cremona group on a noncommutative ring

The Cremona group acts on the field of two independent commutative variables over complex numbers. We provide a noncommutative algebra that is an analog of a noncommutative field of two independent variables and prove that the Cremona group embeds in a group of outer automorphisms of this algebra. We give two proofs of it, the first proof is technical, the second one is conceptual and proceeds through a construction of a birational invariant of an algebraic variety from its bounded derived category of coherent sheaves.     

Order 9 automorphisms of K3 surfaces

Abstract

In this paper, we provide a complete classification of non-symplectic automorphisms of order 9 of complex K3 surfaces.     

Operations on maps,and outer automorphisms

By representing maps on surfaces as transitive permutation representations of a certain group Γ, it is shown that there are exactly six invertible operations (such as duality) on maps; they are induced by the outer automorphisms of Γ, and form a group isomorphic to S₃. Various consequences are deduced, such as the result that each finite map has a finite reflexible cover which is invariant under all six operations.     

On symplectic quotients of K3 surfaces

In this note, we construct generalized Shioda-Inose structures on K3 surfaces using cyclic covers and almost functoriality of Shioda-Inose structures with respect to normal subgroups of a given group of symplectic automorphisms.     

Dynamics of automorphisms on compact Kähler manifolds

We study holomorphic automorphisms on compact Kähler manifolds having simple actions on the Hodge cohomology ring. We show for such automorphisms that the main dynamical Green currents admit complex laminar structures (woven currents) and the Green measure is the unique invariant probability measure of maximal entropy.     

Enriques surfaces and Jacobian elliptic K3 surfaces

This paper proposes a new geometric construction of Enriques surfaces. Its starting point are K3 surfaces with Jacobian elliptic fibration which arise from rational elliptic surfaces by a quadratic base change. The Enriques surfaces obtained in this way are characterised by elliptic fibrations with a rational curve as bisection which splits into two sections on the covering K3 surface. The construction has applications to the study of Enriques surfaces with specific automorphisms. It also allows us to answer a question of Beauville about Enriques surfaces whose Brauer groups show an exceptional behaviour. In a forthcoming paper, we will study arithmetic consequences of our construction.     

Non-symplectic automorphisms of order 3 on K3 surfaces

In this paper we study K3 surfaces with a non-symplectic automorphism of order 3. In particular, we classify the topological structure of the fixed locus of such automorphisms and we show that it determines the action on cohomology. This allows us to describe the structure of the moduli space and to show that it has three irreducible components.
