Singular models of K3 surfaces

Let us work over a ground field of characteristic zero. As is well-known, a K3 surface is a smooth projective geometrically integral surface $X$ whose canonical class $\omega_X$ is trivial and for whi …

Singular models of K3 surfaces

For what it's worth, I wrote up a proof (pretty detailed) following the hints in Francesco Polizzi's answer. It's in an unpublished preprint found here (p. 38 onwards). I am not a geometer, so the exp …

Elliptic fibration of K3 surface

In characteristic $0$, I think the answer is yes, since $U(k)$ contains elements with square zero. See Theorem 11.1 in Brendan Hassett, Potential density of rational points on algebraic varieties (pdf …
