We introduce a sequence of families of lattice polarized $K3$ surfaces. This sequence is closely related to complex reflection groups of exceptional type. Namely, we obtain modular forms coming from the inverse correspondences of the period mappings attached to our sequence. We study a non-trivial relation between our modular forms and invariants of complex reflection groups. Especially, we consider a family concerned with the Shepherd-Todd group of No.34 based on arithmetic properties of lattices and algebro-geometric properties of the period mappings.

For every known Hecke eigenform of weight 3 with rational eigenvalues we exhibit a K3 surface over QQ associated to the form. This answers a question asked independently by Mazur and van Straten. The proof builds on a classification of CM forms by the second author.
We study the virtual geometry of the moduli spaces of curves and sheaves on K3 surfaces in primitive classes. Equivalences relating the reduced Gromov-Witten invariants of K3 surfaces to characteristic numbers of stable pairs moduli spaces are proven. As a consequence, we prove the Katz-Klemm-Vafa conjecture evaluating $lambda_g$ integrals (in all genera) in terms of explicit modular forms. Indeed, all K3 invariants in primitive classes are shown to be governed by modular forms. The method of proof is by degeneration to elliptically fibered rational surfaces. New formulas relating reduced virtual classes on K3 surfaces to standard virtual classes after degeneration are needed for both maps and sheaves. We also prove a Gromov-Witten/Pairs correspondence for toric 3-folds. Our approach uses a result of Kiem and Li to produce reduced classes. In Appendix A, we answer a number of questions about the relationship between the Kiem-Li approach, traditional virtual cycles, and symmetric obstruction theories. The interplay between the boundary geometry of the moduli spaces of curves, K3 surfaces, and modular forms is explored in Appendix B by A. Pixton.
We construct non-geometric compactifications by using the F-theory dual of the heterotic string compactified on a two-torus, together with a close connection between Siegel modular forms of genus two and the equations of certain K3 surfaces. The modular group mixes together the Kahler, complex structure, and Wilson line moduli of the torus yielding weakly coupled heterotic string compactifications which have no large radius interpretation.
Building on an idea of Borcherds, Katzarkov, Pantev, and Shepherd-Barron (who treated the case $e=14$), we prove that the moduli space of polarized K3 surfaces of degree $2e$ contains complete curves for all $egeq 62$ and for some sporadic lower values of $e$ (starting at $14$). We also construct complete curves in the moduli spaces of polarized hyper-Kahler manifolds of $mathrm{K3}^{[n]}$-type or $mathrm{Kum}_n$-type for all $nge 1$ and polarizations of various degrees and divisibilities.
Let $F$ be a moduli space of lattice-polarized K3 surfaces. Suppose that one has chosen a canonical effective ample divisor $R$ on a general K3 in $F$. We call this divisor recognizable if its flat limit on Kulikov surfaces is well defined. We prove that the normalization of the stable pair compactification $overline{F}^R$ for a recognizable divisor is a Looijenga semitoroidal compactification. For polarized K3 surfaces $(X,L)$ of degree $2d$, we show that the sum of rational curves in the linear system $|L|$ is a recognizable divisor, giving a modular semitoroidal compactification of $F_{2d}$ for all $d$.
