Abstract: Let X be a complex K3 surface with an effective action of a group G which preserves the holomorphic symplectic form. Let Z_{X,G}(q) = sum_{n=0}^{infty} eleft(operatorname{Hilb}^{n}(X)^{G} ight), q^{n-1} be the generating function for the Euler characteristics of the Hilbert schemes of G-invariant length n subschemes. We show that its reciprocal, ZX,G(q)−1 is the Fourier expansion of a modular cusp form of weight frac12e(X/G) for the congruence subgroup Gamma0(|G|). We give an explicit formula for ZX,G in terms of the Dedekind eta function for all 82 possible (X,G). The key intermediate result we prove is of independent interest: it establishes an eta product identity for a certain shifted theta function of the root lattice of a simply laced root system. We extend our results to various refinements of the Euler characteristic, namely the Elliptic genus, the Chi-y genus, and the motivic class.
