 >Threefolds fibred by sextic double planes</a>\nby Alan Thompson (Loughbor
 ough) as part of Online Nottingham algebraic geometry seminar\n\n\nAbstrac
 t\nI will discuss the theory of threefolds fibred by K3 surfaces mirror to
  the sextic double plane. This theory is unexpectedly rich\, in part due t
 o the presence of a polarisation-preserving involution on such K3 surfaces
 . I will present an explicit birational classification result for such thr
 eefolds\, along with computations of several of their basic invariants. Al
 ong the way we will uncover several (perhaps) surprising links between thi
 s theory and Kodaira's theory of elliptic surfaces. This is joint work wit
 h Remkes Kooistra.\n
