Abstract

This paper concerns complex algebraic K3 surfaces with an automorphism which acts trivially on the Néron–Severi group. Complementing a result by Vorontsov and Kondō, we determine those K3 surfaces where the order of the automorphism is a 2-power and equals the rank of the transcendental lattice. We also study the arithmetic of these K3 surfaces and comment on relations with mirror symmetry.
