Abstract

Let XX be a projective and smooth variety over an algebraically closed field kk. Let f:YXf:Y\rightarrow X be a proper and surjective morphism of kk-varieties. Assuming that ff is separable, we prove that the Tannakian category associated to the vector bundles EE on XX such that fEf^*E is trivial is equivalent to the category of representations of a finite and etale group scheme. We give a counterexample to this conclusion in the absence of separability.
