Abstract

Let XX be a surface with geometric genus and irregularity zero which is defined over a number field KK. Let X\mathscr{X} denote a smooth spread of XX over the spectrum of a Zariski open subset in the spectrum of the ring of integers and A2A^2 stands for the group of algebraically trivial cycles on schemes modulo rational equivalence. If j:A2(X)A2(X)j^*: A^2(\mathscr{X})\to A^2(X) be the flat pull-back corresponding to the embedding j:XXj:X\hookrightarrow \mathscr{X} then we prove that \im(j)(K)/A2(X)(K)\im(j^*)(K)/A^2(\mathscr{X})(K) is a torsion group. Here \im(j)(K)\im(j^*)(K), A2(X)(K)A^2(\mathscr{X})(K) stand for the cycles fixed under the action of the absolute Galois group.
