A census of zeta functions of quartic K3 surfaces over F_2
We compute the complete set of candidates for the zeta function of a K3
surface over F_2 consistent with the Weil conjectures, as well as the complete
set of zeta functions of smooth quartic surfaces over F_2. These sets differ
substantially, but we do identify natural subsets which coincide. This gives
some numerical evidence towards a Honda-Tate theorem for transcendental zeta
functions of K3 surfaces; such a result would refine a recent theorem of
Taelman, in which one must allow an uncontrolled base field extension.Comment: 11 pages; final version, minor changes; to appear in ANTS XI
A database of number fields
We describe an online database of number fields which accompanies this paper
The database centers on complete lists of number fields with prescribed
invariants. Our description here focuses on summarizing tables and connections
to theoretical issues of current interest.Comment: 25 pages, 1 figur
Commensurability Classes of Fake Quadrics
A fake quadric is a smooth projective surface that has the same rational
cohomology as a smooth quadric surface but is not biholomorphic to one. We
provide an explicit classification of all irreducible fake quadrics according
to the commensurability class of their fundamental group. To accomplish this
task, we develop a number of new techniques that explicitly bound the
arithmetic invariants of a fake quadric and more generally of an arithmetic
manifold of bounded volume arising from a form of SL_2 over a number field
Shimura curves of genus at most two

two.Comment: 18 pages; typo in table fixed, and errata include
