The aim of this school is to introduce young researchers and PhD students to the theory of K3 surfaces, their higherdimensional analogues, hyperkähler manifolds and the related theory of derived categories of Fano varieties. These manifolds are interesting from several points of view: dynamical (some have interesting automorphism groups), arithmetical, and geometric. It is also one of those rare cases where the Torelli theorem allows for a powerful link between the geometry of these manifolds and lattice theory. Our aim is more to provide, for specific families of hyperkähler manifolds (which are projective deformations of punctual Hilbert schemes of K3 surfaces), a panorama of results about projective embeddings, automorphisms, moduli spaces, period maps and domains, rather than a complete reference guide. Moreover, the derived category counterpart of the above theory will also be presented.
