| Abstract: I will describe a method to compute models for Hilbert modular surfaces $Y_{-}(D)$, parametrizing principally polarized abelian surfaces with real multiplication by the full ring of integers in the quadratic field of discriminant D, through moduli spaces of elliptic K3 surfaces. I will also show a couple of applications of these explicit equations, in number theory and in geometry/dynamics. |
