Under suitable hypotheses, we prove that a form of a projective homogeneous variety $G/P$ defined over the function field of a surface over an algebraically closed field has a rational point. The method uses an algebro-geometric analogue of…

We obtain a quantitative version of the classical Chevalley-Weil theorem for curves. Let $\phi : \tilde{C} \to C$ be an unramified morphism of non-singular plane projective curves defined over a number field $K$. We calculate an effective…

Let $X$ be a normal crossing compact complex surface with triple points. We prove that there exists a family of smoothings of $X$ when $X$ satisfies suitable conditions. Since our differential geometric proof also includes the case where…

We prove that equivariant multiplicities may be used to determine whether attractive fixed points on T-varieties are p-smooth. This gives a combinatorial criterion for the determination of the p-smooth locus of Schubert varieties for all…

By computing all cyclotomic points on some algebraic varieties, we get an independent and efficient way to find all rational $a^3b$-monotiles for the sphere, thereby completing the classification of edge-to-edge monohedral quadrilateral…

Let V be a plane smooth cubic curve over a finitely generated field k. The Mordell-Weil theorem for V states that there is a finite subset P \subset V(k) such that the whole V(k) can be obtained from P by drawing secants and tangents…

This paper deals with two families of algebraic varieties arising from applications. First, the k-factor model in statistics, consisting of n-times-n covariance matrices of n observed Gaussian variables that are pairwise independent given k…

In this paper we define a rigid rational homotopy type, associated to any variety $X$ over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic. We prove comparison theorems with previous definitions in the smooth and proper, and log-smooth and…

Let $A$ be an abelian scheme of dimension at least four over a $\mathbb{Z}$-finitely generated integral domain $R$ of characteristic zero, and let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $A$. We prove that the set of smooth hypersurfaces $D$ in $A$…

We give a criterion for the projectivisation of a reflexive sheaf on a klt space to be induced by a projective representation of the fundamental group of the smooth locus. This criterion is then applied to give a characterisation of finite…

We study the holomorphic Euler characteristics of tautological sheaves on Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces. In particular, we establish the rationality of K-theoretic descendent series. Our approach is to control equivariant…

In this paper we compute Lawson homology groups and semi-topological K-theory for some threefolds and fourfolds. We consider smooth complex projective varieties whose zero cycles are supported on a proper subvariety. Rationally connected…

We exhibit a probabilistic algorithm which computes a rational point of an absolutely irreducible variety over a finite field defined by a reduced regular sequence. Its time--space complexity is roughly quadratic in the logarithm of the…

For quasi-projective varieties over a higher local field $k_N$, we prove that its $K$-groups, above a suitable degree, are divisible-by-finite. We also prove the finiteness of the prime-to-$p$ torsion subgroup of certain higher Chow groups…

Using constructions of Voisin, we exhibit a smooth projective variety defined over a number field k and two complex embeddings of k, such that the two complex manifolds induced by these embeddings have non isomorphic cohomology algebras…

We study the 0-th stable A^1-homotopy sheaf of a smooth proper variety over a field k assumed to be infinite, perfect and to have characteristic unequal to 2. We provide an explicit description of this sheaf in terms of the theory of…

We give a closed expression for the number of points over finite fields (or the motive) of the Lusztig nilpotent variety associated to any quiver, in terms of Kac's A-polynomials. When the quiver has 1-loops or oriented cycles, there are…

Consider a component of the Hilbert scheme whose general point corresponds to a degree d genus g smooth irreducible and nondegenerate curve in a projective variety X. We give lower bounds for the dimension of such a component when X is P^3,…
