چکیده

Using the dynamics of self rational maps of elliptic K3 surfaces together with deformation theory, we prove that the union of rational curves is dense on a very general K3 surface and that the union of elliptic curves is dense in the 1st jet space of a very general K3 surface, both in the strong topology. The techniques developed here also lend themselves to applications to Abel-Jacobi images, and we explore some consequences in the Appendix.

Constructing Rational Curves on K3 Surfaces

We develop a mixed-characteristic version of the MoriMukai technique for producing rational curves on K3 surfaces. We reduce modulo p, produce rational curves on the resulting K3 surface over a finite field, and lift to characteristic zero. As an application, we prove that all complex K3 surfaces with Picard group generated by a class of degree two have an infinite number of rational curves.

K3 Surfaces, Rational Curves, and Rational Points

We prove that for any of a wide class of elliptic surfaces X defined over a number field k, if there is an algebraic point on X that lies on only finitely many rational curves, then there is an algebraic point on X that lies on no rational curves. In particular, our theorem applies to a large class of elliptic K3 surfaces, which relates to a question posed by Bogomolov in 1981. Mathematics Subj...

Hyperelliptic Integrable Systems on K3 and Rational Surfaces

We show several examples of integrable systems related to special K3 and rational surfaces (e.g., an elliptic K3 surface, a K3 surface given by a double covering of the projective plane, a rational elliptic surface, etc.). The construction, based on Beauvilles’s general idea, is considerably simplified by the fact that all examples are described by hyperelliptic curves and Jacobians. This also ...
