N\'eron blowups and low-degree cohomological applications

Algebraic Geometry 2020-03-16 v4

Abstract

We define dilatations of general schemes and study their basic properties. Dilatations of group schemes are -- in favorable cases -- again group schemes, called N\'eron blowups. We give two applications to their cohomology in degree zero (integral points) and degree one (torsors): we prove a canonical Moy-Prasad isomorphism that identifies the graded pieces in the congruent filtration of GG with the graded pieces in its Lie algebra g\mathfrak g, and we show that many level structures on moduli stacks of GG-bundles are encoded in torsors under N\'eron blowups of GG.

This is the joint work of two earlier works on dilatations, conducted around the same time independently by the authors. This new version includes minor corrections
