The stratification by automorphism groups of smooth plane sextic curves

We obtain the list of automorphism groups for smooth plane sextic curves over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p=0 or p>21. Moreover, we assign to each group a geometrically complete family overK that describe the corresponding stratum, that is, a generic polynomial equation with pa...

Description
Summary:We obtain the list of automorphism groups for smooth plane sextic curves over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p=0 or p>21. Moreover, we assign to each group a geometrically complete family overK that describe the corresponding stratum, that is, a generic polynomial equation with parameters such that any curve in the stratum is K-isomorphic to a smooth plane model obtained by specializing the values of those parameters in K. Additionally, we explore the connection with K3 surfaces of degree 2.
