Construction of quasi-canonical liftings of K3 surfaces of finite height in odd characteristic (2108.11227v1)

Abstract: We construct a quasi-canonical lifting of a $K3$ surface of finite height over a finite field of characteristic $p\geq3$. Such results are previously obtained by Nygaard-Ogus when $p\geq5$. For this purpose, we use the display-theoretic deformation theory developed by Langer, Zink, and Lau. We study the display structure of the crystalline cohomology of deformations of a $K3$ surface of finite height in terms of the Dieudonn\'e display of the enlarged formal Brauer group.
