We study a pencil of K3 surfaces that appeared in the $2$-loop diagrams in Bhabha scattering. By analysing in detail the Picard lattice of the general and special members of the pencil, we identify the pencil with the celebrated Apery--Fermi pencil, that was related to Aperys proof of the irrationality of $zeta(3)$ through the work of F. Beukers, C. Peters and J. Stienstra. The same pencil appears miraculously in different and seemingly unrelated physical contexts.
The conjectural equivalence of curve counting on Calabi-Yau 3-folds via stable maps and stable pairs is discussed. By considering Calabi-Yau 3-folds with K3 fibrations, the correspondence naturally connects curve and sheaf counting on K3 surfaces. Ne
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.
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
We study triple covers of K3 surfaces, following Mirandas theory of triple covers. We relate the geometry of the covering surfaces with the properties of both the branch locus and the Tschirnhausen vector bundle. In particular, we classify Galois tri
We show that any polarized K3 surface supports special Ulrich bundles of rank 2.
