Singular rational curves on elliptic K3 surfaces

We show that on every elliptic K3 surface there are rational curves ${(R_i)}_{i\in \mathbb{N}}$ such that $R_i^2\to \infty$, that is, of unbounded arithmetic genus. Moreover, we show that the union of the lifts of these curves to $\mathbb{P}({\mathrm{\Omega }}_X)$ is dense in the Zariski topology. As an application, we give a simple proof of a theorem of Kobayashi in the elliptic case, that is, there are no globally defined symmetric differential forms.
