Compact moduli of elliptic K3 surfaces

Kenneth Ascher and Dori Bejleri

Geometry & Topology 27 (2023) 1891–1946
Abstract

We construct various modular compactifications of the space of elliptic K3 surfaces using tools from the minimal model program, and explicitly describe the surfaces parametrized by their boundaries. The coarse spaces of our constructed compactifications admit morphisms to the Satake–Baily–Borel compactification and the GIT compactification of Miranda.

Keywords
