In this note we remark that Chevalley's ambiguous class number formula is an immediate consequence of the Hasse norm theorem, the local and global norm index theorems for cyclic extensions.

We present a formula for the class number of a multinorm one torus $T_{L/k}$ associated to any \'etale algebra $L$ over a global field $k$. This is deduced from a formula for analogues of invariants introduced by T.~Ono, which are…

We will give a simple proof of the ambiguous class number formula.

We give an example of an algebraic torus $T$ such that the group $\operatorname{CH}^2(BT)_{\operatorname{tors}}$ is non-trivial. This answers a question of Blinstein and Merkurjev.

In this article we give an adelic proof of the Chevalley-Gras formula for global fields, which itself is a generalization of the ambiguous class number formula. The idea is to reduce the formula to the Hasse norm theorem, the local and…

We give a formula for the class number of an arbitrary CM algebraic torus over $\mathbb{Q}$. This is proved based on results of Ono and Shyr. As applications, we give formulas for numbers of polarized CM abelian varieties, of connected…

For a torus T defined over a global field K, we revisit an analytic class number formula obtained by Shyr in the 1970's as a generalization of Dirichlet's class number formula. We prove a local-global presentation of the quasi-discriminant…

Let $F$ be a number field and $\mathcal{O}_F$ its ring of integers. We use Chevalley's ambiguous class number formula to give a criterion for the non-existence of solutions to the unit equation $\lambda + \mu = 1$, $\lambda, \mu \in…

We obtain a formula for the S-class number of an algebraic torus defined over a number field in terms of the etale and Galois cohomology groups of its character module. As applications, we give different proofs of some classical class…

In this paper, we prove two structure theorems for twisted Chevalley groups $G_\sigma (R)$ over a commutative ring $R$ with unity. The first theorem concerns the normality of $E'_\sigma (R,J)$, the elementary congruence subgroups at level…

An equivariant linear system on a toric variety is a linear system invariant under the torus action. We study the number of irreducible components of the complete intersection of general divisors from a fixed collection of equivariant…

In finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras and affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras, Chevalley involutions are crucial ingredients of the modular theory. Towards establishing the modular theory for extended affine Lie algebras, we investigate the…

We revisit localisation and patching method in the setting of Chevalley groups. Introducing certain subgroups of relative elementary Chevalley groups, we develop relative versions of the conjugation calculus and the commutator calculus in…

The main result of this announcement is a formula for the tensor product of the class of a homogeneous line bundle with a Schubert class, expressed as a K(X)-linear combination of Schubert classes. We believe that this formula is the most…

We present a proof of the Chevalley-Weil Theorem that is somewhat different from the proofs appearing in the literature and with somewhat weaker hypotheses, of purely topological type. We also provide a discussion of the assumptions, and an…

The ring K(G/B) is isomorphic to a quotient of a Laurent polynomial ring by an ideal generated by certain W-symmetric functions and has a basis given by classes O_w, where O_w is the class of the structure sheaf of the Schubert variety X_w.…

The Shafarevich conjecture for a class of varieties over a number field posits the finitude of those with good reduction outside a finite set of primes. In the case of hypersurfaces in the torus $\mathbb{G}_m^n$, a natural class to consider…

We discuss the Capitulation Problem for Neron-Raynaud class groups of tori over global fields F and obtain generalizations of the main results of [10]. We also show that short exact sequences of F-tori induce long exact sequences involving…

Let $T$ be an algebraic torus defined over a global field $K$. For any $K$-torsor $X$ under $T$, we relate the Brauer group of $X$ to the ad\'{e}le class group of $T$ as well as to the Shafarevich Tate group of $T$.

In this work we demonstrate that the q-numbers and their two-parameter generalization, the q,p-numbers, can be used to obtain some polynomial invariants for torus knots and links. First, we show that the q-numbers, which are closely…
