In this paper, we study sections of a Calabi-Yau threefold fibered over a curve by K3 surfaces. We show that there exist infinitely many isolated sections on certain K3 fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds and the subgroup of the N´eron-Severi group generated by these sections is not finitely generated. This also gives examples of K3 surfaces over the function field F of a complex curve with Zariski dense F-rational points, whose geometric models are Calabi-Yau. Furthermore, we also generalize our results to the cases of families of higher dimensional Calabi-Yau varieties with Calabi-Yau ambient spaces.

Cette thèse comporte deux parties. Dans la première partie on étudie le motif de Chow d’un fibré en quadriques de dimension relative impaire sur une surface. On montre que ce motif admet une décomposition qui fait intervenir le motif de Prym du revêtement double de la courbe discriminante. Dans la deuxième partie on s’intéresse à des fibrations lagrangiennes, obtenues comme jacobiennes intermédiaires relatives des familles de variétés de Fano de dimension trois contenant une surface K3 fixée, et à l’existence d’une compactification symplectique. Dans un cas particulier, on étudie une compactification partielle en utilisant des calculs avec le logiciel Macaulay2. / This thesis consists of two parts. In the first part we study the Chow motive of a quadric bundle of odd relative dimension over a surface. We show that this motive admits a decomposition which involves the Prym motive of the double covering of the discriminant curve.In the second part, we consider Lagrangian fibrations, obtained as relative intermediate Jacobians of families of Fano threefolds containing a fixed K3 surface, and the existence of a symplectic compactification. In a particular case, we study a partial compactification using calculations with the software system Macaulay2.
