associatedK3surface(SpecialGushelMukaiFourfold) -- K3 surface associated to a rational Gushel-Mukai fourfold

• Function: associatedK3surface

• Usage:

  U' = associatedK3surface X

• Inputs:
  • X, a special Gushel-Mukai fourfold, containing a surface $S\subset Y$ that admits a congruence of $(2e-1)$-secant curves of degree $e$ inside the ambient fivefold $Y$ of the fourfold $X$
• Optional inputs:
  • Singular => ..., default value null, whether to transfer computation to Singular
  • Strategy => ..., default value null, K3 surface associated to a rational fourfold
  • Verbose => ..., default value false, request verbose feedback
• Outputs:
  • U', the (minimal) K3 surface associated to $X$
• Consequences:

  • building U' will return the following four objects:
    • the dominant rational map $\mu:Y\dashrightarrow W$ defined by the linear system of hypersurfaces of degree $2e-1$ having points of multiplicity $e$ along $S$;
    • the surface $U\subset W$ determining the inverse map of the restriction of $\mu$ to $X$;
    • the list of the exceptional curves on the surface $U$;
    • a rational map of degree 1 from the surface $U$ to the minimal K3 surface $U'$.
