An Enriques surface over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 4= 2 is a nonsingular projective surface F with Hi (F,(gv)= H2 (F, Or)= 0, 2Kv= 0. The unramified double cover of F defined by the torsion class K v is a K3-surface F, a nonsingular projective surface with HI (F,(gr)= 0, Kr= 0. The study of Enriques surfaces is equivalent to the study of K3-surfaces with a fixed-point-free involution z. In particular, the automor_phism group Aut (F) of F is isomorphic to the group Aut (ff, z)/(z), where Aut (F, z) is the centralizer of z in the automorphism group Aut (F) of ft. In the case k=~, the field of complex numbers, the study of Aut (F) is based on the Global Torelli Theorem for K3-surfaces proven by I. Piatetski-Shapiro and I. Shafarevich in [19]. It follows from this theorem that up to a finite group the group Aut (ff) is isomorphic to the quotient group O (Pic (F))/W, where O (Pic (F)) is the orthogonal group of the Picard lattice of ff and W its normal subgroup generated by the reflections into the classes of nonsingular rational curves. For a" generic" Enriques surface F this theorem allows to compute Aut (F)(see [3] and also [17], where this result is not stated explicitly). For an arbitrary F the relation between F and ff does not help, since it is very difficult to compute the action of z in Pie (if). However, by other means, we can prove the following analog of Piatetski-Shapiro and Shafarevich's result:Theorem. Let F be an Enriques surface and Hr= Pic (F)/Tors. Let W~ be the subgroup of the orthogonal group O (HF) generated by reflections into the classes of nonsingular rational curves on F and G be the subgroup generated by Wf~ and the image Aut (F)* of Aut (F) in O (Hr). Then W~ is a normal subgroup of G and G is the semi-direct product of W~ and Aut (F)*. Moreover, if k= lU then G is of finite index in O (HF).
