Automorphisms of positive entropy on some hyperKähler manifolds via derived automorphisms of \(K3\) surfaces (Q1669023)

The study of the dynamics of automorphism on \(K3\) surfaces began with the work of \textit{S. Cantat} [Acta Math. 187, No. 1, 1--57 (2001; Zbl 1045.37007)] and \textit{C. T. McMullen} [J. Reine Angew. Math. 545, 201--233 (2002; Zbl 1054.37026)]. One generalization of \(K3\) surfaces are hyper-Kähler manifolds, i.e. compact simply connected Kähler manifolds carrying an everywhere non-degenerate holomorphic two form unique up to scalar. \textit{K. Oguiso} [Manuscr. Math. 130, No. 1, 101--111 (2009; Zbl 1172.14026)] constructed examples of dynamical systems on hyper-Kähler manifolds and showed that the dynamical degrees of automorphisms of hyper-Kähler manifolds are either Salem numbers or one. In this paper, the author constructs further examples of hyper-Kähler manifolds with automorphisms of positive entropy. More precisely, he constructs hyper-Kähler manifolds of Picard number two as moduli spaces of Bridgeland stable objects in derived categories of \(K3\) surfaces and uses derived automorphism of \(K3\) surfaces to construct the associated automorphisms of positive entropy. Several explicit examples are given at the end of the paper.
