We prove a bound of the order of the lift acting on the anti-invariant cohomology sublattice of the Enriques involution. We use it to obtain some mod 2 constraint on the original automorphism. As an application, we give a necessary condition for Salem numbers to be dynamical degrees on Enriques surfaces and obtain a new bound on the minimal value. In the Appendix, we give a complete list of Salem numbers that potentially could be the minimal dynamical degree on Enriques surfaces and for which the existence of geometric automorphisms is unknown.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-07-09T11:46:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14J28", "14J50", "37B40" ], "keywords": [ "enriques surface", "salem numbers", "anti-invariant cohomology sublattice", "covering k3 surface", "enriques involution" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
