K3 surfaces with good reduction away from finitely many places

Let S be a finite set of primes in Q. What, if anything, do we know about K3 surfaces over Q with good reduction away from S? (To be more precise, I suppose I mean schemes over Spec Z[1/S] whose ...

Rational curves on the Fermat quartic surface

Let $X$ be the Fermat quartic $x^4+y^4+z^4+w^4=0$ in $\mathbb P^3$. It is known that $X$ contains infinitely many $(-2)$-curves, that is, smooth rational curves. (One way to obtain in infinitely many ...

Torelli-like theorem for K3 surfaces on terms of its étale cohomology

Is there a proof of a Torelli-like Theorem for a K3-surface over any field (non complex) in terms of its etale or crystalline cohomology? For example: If $K\ne \mathbb{C} $ and $X\rightarrow \...

Are all these K3 surfaces supersingular?

Consider all the smooth K3 surfaces given by $X^4+W^2X^2+XW^3 = f(Y,Z,W)$ or $X^4+XW^3 = g(Y,Z,W)$ over $\mathbb F_{2}$ with $f$ or $g$ homogenous of degree 4. There are a lot of choices for $f$ and $...

Mordell–Weil rank of some elliptic $K3$ surface

Consider a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ such that $q \equiv 1 \pmod3$ (i.e., $\omega \mathrel{:=} \sqrt[3]{1} \in \mathbb{F}_q$ for $\omega \neq 1$) and an element $b \in (\mathbb{F}_q^*)^2 \setminus (\...

Are supersingular K3 surfaces unirational?

There is a conjecture due to Artin, Rudakov, Shafarevich, Shioda that supersingular K3 surfaces over a finite field are unirational. This paper claims to prove this result but it has had a recent ...

Minimal semistable model for K3-surfaces.

I wonder if a semistalbe K3 surface over a $p$-adic field has a minimal semistable model. I guess yes but I do not find any reference. Also, if we have a semistable K3 surface with a log structure, ...

Common gerbes over two K3 surfaces

Let $X$ and $Y$ be K3 surfaces over the complex numbers. Under what assumptions, do there exist a finite group $G_X$ a finite group $G_Y$ a $G_X$-gerbe $\mathcal{X}\to X$ (for the fppf topology) a $...

Elliptic fibrations on the Fermat quartic surface

Consider the Fermat quartic surface $$ x^4 + y^4 + z^4 + t^4 = 0 $$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristics $p$, where $p \equiv 3$ ($\mathrm{mod}$ $4$). Is there the full ...

Is the Fermat quartic surface a generalized Zariski surface?

Consider the Fermat quartic surface $$F\!: x^4 + y^4 + z^4 + t^4 = 0$$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of odd characterstics $p$. Shioda proved that for $p=3$ this surface is a generalized ...
