Am I missing something about this notion of Mirror Symmetry for abelian varieties?

This is a continuation of my recent question: Mirror symmetry for polarized abelian surfaces and Shioda-Inose K3s. In the comments of the question, I was directed to the paper http://arxiv.org/abs/...

What classes am I missing in the Picard lattice of a Kummer K3 surface?

Constructing the Kummer K3 of an Abelian surface $A$, we have an obvious 22-dimensional collection of classes in $H^2(K3, \mathbb{Z})$ given by the 16 (-2)-curves (which by construction do not ...

To what extent does Poincare duality hold on moduli stacks?

Poincare duality gives us, for a smooth orientable $n$-manifold, an isomorphism $H^k(M) \to H_{n-k}(M)$ given by $\gamma \mapsto \gamma \frown [M]$ where $[M]$ is the fundamental class of the manifold,...

Mirror symmetry for polarized abelian surfaces and Shioda-Inose K3s

It is well known (cf. Dolgachev) that there is a beautiful notion of mirror symmetry for lattice-polarized K3 surfaces. That is, if we are given a rank $r$ lattice $M$ of signature $(1, r - 1)$ and a ...

On the cohomology ring of the Hilbert scheme of points on k3 or abelian surfaces

There are many results on the cohomology of the Hilbert scheme of points of a surface. Gottsche calcaluted the Betti numbers and Nakajima got the generators of the cohomology. Also there are results ...

Is a Kummer surface over an finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ supersingular iff $\mathbb{F}_q$-unirational?

Let $A$ be an abelian surface over an finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. In particular, I am interested in the case when $A$ is a Jacobian variety. Is the Kummer surface $K_A/\mathbb{F}_q$ Shioda-...

Is the set of points on an abelian surface which project to rational points on the Kummer surface a subgroup?

Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve of genus 2 defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, let $J$ be its Jacobian, and let $X$ be the Kummer surface associated to $J$ (i. e. $X$ is the singular Kummer surface which ...

(3,3) abelian surface and k3 surfaces

SOrry for the very specific question, but curiosity bites.... So here's the story: an idecomposable principally polarized abelian surface is embedded in $P^8=|3\Theta |^* $ as a deg 18 surface A. ...

Kuga-Satake with p-adic methods

Is it possible to construct the Kuga-Satake abelian variety attached to a K3 surfaces (over a local field) only using p-adic methods? If the K3 surface is defined over a local field, the Kuga-...

Toric degeneration of Kummer Surface

I am wondering if there are any explicit examples of a toric degeneration of a Kummer surface (e.g. as a family of projective varieties say), and what the central fibre can look like? (I am working ...

Is there a way to explicitly find any rational $\mathbb{F}_p$-curve on the Kummer surface?

Consider a finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ (where $p \equiv 1 \ (\mathrm{mod} \ 3)$, $p \equiv 3 \ (\mathrm{mod} \ 4)$), $\mathbb{F}_{p^2}$-isomorphic elliptic curves (of $j$-invariant $0$) $$ E\!:y_1^2 = ...

The quotient of a superspecial abelian surface by the involution

Let $E_i\!: y_i^2 = f(x_i)$ be two copies of a supersingular elliptic curve over a field of odd characteristics. Consider the involution $$ i\!: E_1\times E_2 \to E_1\times E_2,\qquad (x_1, y_1, x_2, ...

What are sufficient and necessary conditions to be a generalized Zariski surface over a finite field?

Let $X$ be an absolutely irreducible reduced surface over a finite field $k$ of characteristic $p$. What are sufficient and necessary conditions for $X$ to be a generalized Zariski surface over $k$ (...

Linear system on an abelian surface

On a K3 surface $S$, a linear system $|C|$ is said to be hyperelliptic if the corresponding map is of degree 2 and the image is of degree $g_a(C)-1$ in $\mathbb P^{g_a}$. For $g_a(C) > 2$, if $|C|...
