Dr. rer. nat. Matthias Schütt


Research Area: Algebraic and Arithmetic Geometry

deutsch


Research interests: Arithmetic of K3 surfaces, in particular singular K3 surfaces
Zeta-functions, fields of definition
Supersingular surfaces, in particular K3, Fermat and Horikawa surfaces
Elliptic curves and surfaces
Modular forms (with CM)
Modularity of higher-dimensional Calabi-Yau varieties
Modularity of families of projective varieties
Modularity of elliptic curves over function fields

Status quo: I am spending the academic years 2006-2008 at the Department of Mathematics of Harvard University with a research grant from Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG).

News:     Paper on K3 surfaces of Picard rank 20 over Q
Talks at the Fields Institute and at Queen's University
Joint paper with A. Schweizer on the uniqueness of K3 surfaces with maximal singular fibre
Talks at Københavns Universitet, Courant Research Center Göttingen and Universität Duisburg-Essen

Upcoming:     Every newform of weight 3 with rational coefficients is associated to a K3 surface over Q - joint paper with N. D. Elkies in preparation
Joint work with C. Liedtke on supersingular Horikawa surfaces
Talks at Instytut Matematyki Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego and Leibniz Universität Hannover
Joint work with T. Shioda on lines on Fermat surfaces
