Abstract:

We study the symplectic topology of certain $K3$ surfaces (including the “mirror quartic” and “mirror double plane”), equipped with certain KĂ€hler forms. In particular, we prove that the symplectic Torelli group may be infinitely generated, and derive new constraints on Lagrangian tori. The key input, via homological mirror symmetry, is a result of Bayer and Bridgeland on the autoequivalence group of the derived category of an algebraic $K3$ surface of Picard rank one.
