Summary: We describe the application of the results of S. S. Kudla and J. J. Millson [Math. Ann. 274, No. 3, 353–378 (1986; Zbl 0594.10020); Math. Ann. 277, No. 2, 267–314 (1987; Zbl 0618.10022); Publ. Math., Inst. Hautes Étud. Sci. 71, 121–172 (1990; Zbl 0722.11026)] on the modularity of generating series for cohomology classes of special cycles to the case of lattice polarized \(K3\) surfaces. In this case, the special cycles can be interpreted as higher Noether-Lefschetz loci. These generating series can be paired with the cohomology classes of complete subvarieties of the moduli space to give classical Siegel modular forms with higher Noether-Lefschetz numbers as Fourier coefficients. Examples of such complete families associated to quadratic spaces over totally real number fields are constructed.
