We introduce three notion of tameness of the Nori fundamental group scheme for a normal quasiprojective variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field. It is proved that these three notions agree if $X$ admits a smooth completion with…
We obtain a version of the theorem of the square and a local structure result for actions of connected algebraic groups on seminormal varieties in characteristic 0, and arbitrary varieties in positive characteristics.
We prove a strengthening of the Grothendieck-Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for local Picard groups conjectured by Koll\'ar. Our approach, which relies on acyclicity results for absolute integral closures, also leads to a restriction theorem…
Algebraically simply connected surfaces of general type with p_g=q=0 and 1\le K^2\le 4 in positive characteristic (with one exception in K^2=4) are presented by using a Q-Gorenstein smoothing of two-dimensional toric singularities, a…
A $\mathbf{GL}$-variety is a (typically infinite dimensional) variety modeled on the polynomial representation theory of the general linear group. In previous work, we studied these varieties in characteristic 0. In this paper, we obtain…
We study GL-equivariant modules over the infinite variable polynomial ring $S = k[x_1, x_2, ..., x_n, ...]$ with $k$ an infinite field of characteristic $p > 0$. We extend many of Sam--Snowden's far-reaching results from characteristic zero…
We initiate a systematic study of the perfection of affine group schemes of finite type over fields of positive characteristic. The main result intrinsically characterises and classifies the perfections of reductive groups, and obtains a…
The tame fundamental group scheme for an algebraic variety is the maximal linearly reductive quotient of Nori's fundamental group scheme. In this paper, we study the tame fundamental group schemes of smooth curves defined over algebraically…
In this paper, using some properties of fundamental groups and covering spaces of connected polyhedra and CW-complexes, we present topological proof for some famous theorems about finitely presented groups.
We give a criterion for a group homomorphism on a valued abelian group to be surjective and to preserve spherical completeness. We apply this to give a criterion for the existence of integration on a valued differential field. Further, we…
We prove a Lefschetz theorem for the Tannakian group scheme of $\mathcal{D}$-modules, in arbitrary characteristic. In characteristic $0$, We prove a K\"unneth formula for the Tannakian group scheme of regular singular integrable…
We introduce a notion of ampleness for subschemes of higher codimension using the theory of q-ample line bundles. We also investigate certain geometric properties satisfied by ample subvarieties, e.g. the Lefschetz hyperplane theorems and…
We analyze the structure of a large class of connected algebraic rings over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic using Greenberg's perfectization functor. We then give applications to rigidity problems for…
In this paper, we prove a Lefschetz-Riemann-Roch theorem for singular projective schemes which admit diagonalisable group scheme actions, this result generalizes P. Baum, W. Fulton and G. Quart's Lefschetz-Riemann-Roch theorem for singular…
By the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem, if X is a smooth quasi-projective variety and C a general curve section of X then the fundamental group of C surjects onto the fundamental group of X. Here we consider when this conclusion holds for a…
For any type of fundamental groupoid scheme, we construct an algebraic cohomology theory for varieties with coefficients in the base field. This is a minor variant of \'etale cohomology, involving neither de Rham complexes nor…
In this note we prove a variational open adelic image theorem for the Galois action on the cohomology of smooth proper $S$-schemes where $S$ is a smooth variety over a finitely generated field of positive characteristic. A central tool is a…
We study Lie algebroids in positive characteristic and moduli spaces of their modules. In particular, we show a Langton's type theorem for the corresponding moduli spaces. We relate Langton's construction to Simpson's construction of…
Unlike the classical Brauer group of a field, the Brauer-Grothendieck group of a singular scheme need not be torsion. We show that there exist integral normal projective surfaces over a large field of positive characteristic with…
We complete the classification of automorphism groups of del Pezzo surfaces over algebraically closed fields of odd positive characteristic.
