Embedding pointed curves in K3 surfaces

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We analyze morphisms from pointed curves to K3 surfaces with a distinguished rational curve, such that the marked points are taken to the rational curve, perhaps with specified cross ratios. This builds on work of Mukai and others characterizing embeddings of curves into K3 surfaces via non-abelian Brill-Noether theory. Our study leads naturally to enumerative problems, which we solve in several specific cases. These have applications to the existence of sections of del Pezzo fibrations with prescribed invariants.
