Abstract
Let S be a complex algebraic K3 surface. It is proved that the 0-dimensional cusps of the Kähler moduli of S are in one-to-one correspondence with the twisted Fourier-Mukai partners of S. As a result, a counting formula for the 0-dimensional cusps of the Kähler moduli is obtained. Applications to rational maps between K3 surfaces are given. When the Picard number of S is 1, the bijective correspondence is calculated explicitly by using the Fricke modular curve.
