allow us to get X; however, finding v seems a more difficult problem.<br />
The last secti<strong>on</strong> deals with the relati<strong>on</strong>ship <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the results <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the previous secti<strong>on</strong>s<br />
with the topic <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> equivalences <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>derived</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>categories</str<strong>on</strong>g>. This provides an insight into<br />
why we can <strong>on</strong>ly get a hold <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the transcendental lattice <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> X in generalizing Ogg-<br />
Shafarevich theory. As a c<strong>on</strong>sequence <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> this analysis we also observe the following<br />
curious phenomen<strong>on</strong>: when we can find X and v, X <strong>on</strong>ly depends <strong>on</strong> the cyclic<br />
subgroup <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> Br(M) generated by α. This allows us to infer that in some cases <strong>on</strong>e<br />
has<br />
D b coh(M, α) = D b coh(M, α k )<br />
for (k, ord(α)) = 1, a rather striking applicati<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the theoretical results <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the<br />
previous chapters. In the next chapter we’ll see a similar result for elliptic Calabi-<br />
Yau threefolds.<br />
5.1 General Facts<br />
The main results about K3 surfaces: the Torelli theorem, Mukai’s calculati<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
moduli spaces <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>sheaves</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong> K3’s, Orlov’s characterizati<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>derived</str<strong>on</strong>g> equivalences<br />
for K3’s – are all presented in this secti<strong>on</strong>, and put in the c<strong>on</strong>text <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the results in<br />
the first part.<br />
The Torelli Theorem<br />
Let’s fix notati<strong>on</strong>: let X be a complex K3 surface, i.e., a complex manifold <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
complex dimensi<strong>on</strong> 2, having trivial can<strong>on</strong>ical class (KX = 0) and being simply<br />
c<strong>on</strong>nected (equivalent, using Hodge theory, to having H 1 (X, OX) = 0).<br />
We have H 2 (X, Z) = Z 22 , and c<strong>on</strong>sidering this group with the intersecti<strong>on</strong><br />
pairing we obtain a lattice which is isomorphic to<br />
LK3 = (E8) ⊕2 ⊕ (U(1)) ⊕3 .<br />
Inside the H 2 (X, Z) lattice there are two natural sublattices, the Nér<strong>on</strong>-Severi<br />
sublattice <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> X, NS(X), (c<strong>on</strong>sisting <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> first Chern classes <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> holomorphic vector<br />
bundles), and its orthog<strong>on</strong>al complement, the transcendental lattice TX =<br />
NS(X) ⊥ . Both these lattices are primitive sublattices <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> H 2 (X, Z), but may be<br />
n<strong>on</strong>-unimodular.<br />
The complex structure <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> X is reflected in its Hodge decompositi<strong>on</strong><br />
H 2 (X, C) = H 2,0 (X) ⊕ H 1,1 (X) ⊕ H 0,2 (X).<br />
We have dim H 2,0 (X) = 1, so in order to specify this decompositi<strong>on</strong>, it is enough<br />
to specify a <strong>on</strong>e-dimensi<strong>on</strong>al complex subspace π ⊆ H 2 (X, C) (called the period <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
X): indeed, <strong>on</strong>e can take H 2,0 (X) to be π, H 0,2 to be the complex c<strong>on</strong>jugate π <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
π, and H 1,1 to be the orthog<strong>on</strong>al (with respect to the intersecti<strong>on</strong> pairing) to the<br />
span <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> π and π. The complex subspace π satisfies the following extra property: if<br />
v ∈ π is a n<strong>on</strong>-zero vector, we have v.v = 0 and v.v > 0.<br />
