DHT conjecture for K3 surfaces

At least 1 year old · documented by

Let X→Δ\mathcal{X}\to\Delta be an LL-polarised Tyurin degeneration of K3 surfaces with general fibre XX. Let II denote the relevant lattice, let e∈Ie\in I be primitive and mm-admissible in L⊥L^{\perp}, and define the mirror lattice

Lˇ=eL⊥⊥/Ze.\check{L}=e^{\perp}_{L^{\perp}}/\mathbb{Z}e.

Let YY be a Lˇ\check{L}-quasi-polarised K3 surface. An allowable loop is a loop γ⊂P1\gamma\subset\mathbb{P}^1 for which the quasi-polarisation is compatible with the elliptic fibration and the loop.

DHT conjecture. The surface YY admits an elliptic fibration π ⁣:Y→P1\pi\colon Y\to\mathbb{P}^1 and an allowable loop γ⊂P1\gamma\subset\mathbb{P}^1 compatible with the Lˇ\check{L}-quasi-polarisation, such that X→Δ\mathcal{X}\to\Delta and π ⁣:Y→P1\pi\colon Y\to\mathbb{P}^1 form a mirror pair. Conversely, if an L′L'-quasi-polarised K3 surface YY admits an elliptic fibration and an allowable compatible loop, if τ\tau is mm-admissible in (L′)⊥(L')^{\perp}, and if

Lˇ′=τ(L′)⊥⊥/Zτ,\check{L}'=\tau^{\perp}_{(L')^{\perp}}/\mathbb{Z}\tau,

then there exists an Lˇ′\check{L}'-polarised Tyurin degeneration X→Δ\mathcal{X}\to\Delta forming a mirror pair with π ⁣:Y→P1\pi\colon Y\to\mathbb{P}^1.

This is a precise K3-surface version of the DHT philosophy relating Tyurin degenerations to codimension-one fibrations on Calabi–Yau manifolds. The source presents it as a conjecture; no resolution evidence is supplied here.
