%0 Journal Article %T The moduli space of 5 points on P^1 and K3 surfaces %A Shigeyuki Kondo %J Mathematics %D 2005 %I arXiv %X We show that the moduli space of ordered 5 points on the projective line is isomorphic to an arithmetic quotient of a complex ball by using the theory of periods of K3 surfaces. We also discuss a relation between our uniformization and the one given by Shimura, Terada and Deligne-Mostow. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0507006v1
