Abstract

We give explicit equations of smooth Jacobian Kummer surfaces of degree 8 in $\mathbb P^5$ by theta functions. As byproducts, we can write down Rosenhain's 80 hyperplanes and 32 lines on these Kummer surfaces explicitly. Moreover we study the fibration of Kummer surfaces over the Satake compactification of the Siegel modular 3-fold of level (2,4). The total space is a smooth projective 5-fold which is regarded as a higher-dimensional analogue of Shioda's elliptic modular surfaces.
