Abstract: In this article we give a strategy to decide whether the logarithm of a given Salem number is realized as entropy of an automorphism of a supersingular K3 surface in positive characteristic. As test case it is proved that $loglambd{a}_d$, where $lambd{a}_d$ is the minimal Salem number of degree $d$, is realized in characteristic $5$ if and only if $dleq22$ is even and $deq18$. In the complex projective setting we settle the case of entropy $loglambd{a}_{12}$ left open by McMullen, by giving the construction. A necessary and sufficient test is developed to decide whether a given isometry of a hyperbolic lattice, with spectral radius bigger than one, is positive, i.e. preserves a chamber of the positive cone.
