Non minimal K3 surfaces as hypersurfaces of weighted projective spaces
I recently learnt that the hypersurface
$$
S:=(x^2+y^3+z^{11}+w^{66}=0) \subset \mathbb{P}(33,22,6,1)
$$
is birational to a K3 surface. This is surprising because the surface is quasi-smooth, well-...

(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. ...

octic K3s inside cubic 4-folds
From the Thesis of B.Hassett I seem to understand that a smooth cubic 4-fold $X$ containing a $\mathbb{P}^2$ should contain also a octic K3, but I cannot see a natural way by which this K3 octic could ...

2 K3s and cubic fourfolds containing a plane
Two K3 surfaces show up when talking about cubic fourfolds containing a plane. Let $P\subset X\subset \mathbb{P}^5$ be the plane inside the cubic. Since $P$ is cut out by 3 linear equations then $X$ ...
