Mar 27, 2013 at 2:52 comment added Mohammad Farajzadeh-Tehrani When talking about j-map above, I am assuming there is a section.
Mar 27, 2013 at 2:07 comment added Mohammad Farajzadeh-Tehrani Some more questions in this direction: -- @ Jason Starr: What is the weight you are mentioning? --So the number of singular fibers (which I think is the degree of j-map to $\mathbb{P}^1$ can be different in different examples? --Are there examples where the singular fiber is "not" normal-crossing" (or semi-stable)?

Feb 6, 2012 at 11:20 comment added Jason Starr Certainly the topological fibrations of elliptically fibered K3 surfaces are not all topologically equivalent. The number of singular fibers, as well as the types of singularities, can vary. The "weighted sum" of the singularities of fibers always equals 24, but that leaves a lot of room for variation.

Feb 6, 2012 at 5:41 comment added Noam D. Elkies One elliptic fibration of the Fermat quartic that was known (in all but name) to Euler is described on pages 12-13 of the lecture notes at math.harvard.edu/~elkies/euler_11c.pdf, which also describe a few other ways to work with elliptic fibrations of K3's.
