Moduli spaces of twisted K3 surfaces and cubic fourfolds (Q785352)

A twisted \(K3\) surface is a pair consisting of a \(K3\) surface and a Brauer class on it. The author of the interesting paper under review constructs moduli spaces of polarized twisted \(K3\) surfaces of any fixed degree and order. They are obtained by mimicking the construction of the moduli spaces of untwisted polarized \(K3\) surfaces as the quotients of a bounded symmetric domain. Moreover, as an application, the author generalises a result of \textit{B. Hassett} [Compos. Math. 120, No. 1, 1--23 (2000; Zbl 0956.14031)] about special cubic fourfolds and associated \(K3\) surfaces to the setting of twisted \(K3\) surfaces.
