Existence of supersingular reduction for families of K3 surfaces with   large Picard number in positive characteristic
  We study non-isotrivial families of $K3$ surfaces in positive characteristic $p$ whose geometric generic fibers satisfy $\rho\geq21-2h$ and $h\geq3$, where $\rho$ is the Picard number and $h$ is the height of the formal Brauer group. We show that, under a mild assumption on the characteristic of the base field, they have potential supersingular reduction. Our methods rely on Maulik's results on moduli spaces of $K3$ surfaces and the construction of sections of powers of Hodge bundles due to van der Geer and Katsura. For large $p$ and each $2\leq{h}\leq10$, using deformation theory and Taelman's methods, we construct non-isotrivial families of $K3$ surfaces satisfying $\rho=22-2h$.
