Abstract: A generalized Kummer surface X=Km3(A,GA) is the minimal resolution of the quotient of a 2-dimensional complex torus by an order 3 symplectic automorphism group GA. A Kummer structure on X is an isomorphism class of pairs (B,GB) such that XsimeqKm3(B,GB). When the surface is algebraic, we obtain that the number of Kummer structures is linked with the number of order 3 elliptic points on some Shimura curve naturally related to A. For each ninmathbbN, we obtain generalized Kummer surfaces Xn for which the number of Kummer structures is 2n. We then give a classification of the moduli spaces of generalized Kummer surfaces. When the surface is non algebraic, there is only one Kummer structure, but the number of irreducible components of the moduli spaces of such surfaces is large compared to the algebraic case. The endomorphism rings of the complex 2-tori we study are mainly quaternion orders, these order contain the ring of Eisenstein integers. One can also see this paper as a study of quaternion orders mathcalO over mathbbQ that contain the ring of Eisenstein integers. We obtain that such order is determined up to isomorphism by its discriminant, and when the quaternion algebra is indefinite, the order mathcalO is principal.


In the paper under review, the author studies Kummer structures and moduli spaces of generalized Kummer surfaces. Let us recall that a generalized Kummer surface \(X = \mathrm{Km}_{3}(A,G_{A})\) is the minimal resolution of the quotient \(A / G_{A}\) of a \(2\) dimensional complex torus by an order \(3\) symplectic automorphism group \(G_{A}\). It is worth recalling that the quotient surface \(A / G_{A}\) has \(9\) singularities of type \(A_{2}\). A generalized Kummer structure of \(X\) is an isomorphism class of pairs \((B,G_{B})\) of complex \(2\)-dimensional torus and order \(3\) symplectic automorphism group \(G_{B} \subset \mathrm{Aut}(B)\) such that \(\mathrm{Km}_{3}(B, G_{B}) \cong X\). The generalized Kummer structures on \(X\) are in bijective correspondence with the orbits of \(9 A_{2}\)-configurations on \(X\) under the action of \(\mathrm{Aut}(X)\). In the present paper, the author investigates the number \(N_{KS}(X)\) of generalized Kummer structures on \(X\), and the moduli spaces of these surfaces. When the surface is algebraic, one obtains that the number of Kummer structures is linked with the number of order \(3\) elliptic points on some Shimura curve naturally related to \(A\). For each \(n \in \mathbb{N}\), the author obtains generalized Kummer surfaces \(X_n\) for which the number of Kummer structures is \(2n\). Then the author gives a classification of the moduli spaces of generalized Kummer surfaces. When the surface is non algebraic, there is only one Kummer structure, but the number of irreducible components of the moduli spaces of such surfaces is large compared to the algebraic case.
