K-MODULI OF CURVES ON A QUADRIC SURFACE AND K3 SURFACES

Abstract

AbstractWe show that the K-moduli spaces of log Fano pairs $\left(\mathbb {P}^1\times \mathbb {P}^1, cC\right)$ , where C is a $(4,4)$ curve and their wall crossings coincide with the VGIT quotients of $(2,4)$ , complete intersection curves in $\mathbb {P}^3$ . This, together with recent results by Laza and O’Grady, implies that these K-moduli spaces form a natural interpolation between the GIT moduli space of $(4,4)$ curves on $\mathbb {P}^1\times \mathbb {P}^1$ and the Baily–Borel compactification of moduli of quartic hyperelliptic K3 surfaces.
