The purpose of this survey is to explain some recent results about analogies between characteristic 0 and characteristic $p>0$ geometry, and to discuss an infinitesimal variant of motivic cohomology. More specifically, we review results…
We compute the Brauer group of the moduli stack of stable PGL(r)-bundles on a curve $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We also show that the Brauer group of such a moduli stack coincides with the Brauer group of…
We study zero-cycles in families of rationally connected varieties. We show that for a smooth projective scheme over a henselian discrete valuation ring the restriction of relative zero cycles to the special fiber induces an isomorphism on…
The paper deals with the cohomological invariants of smooth and connected linear algebraic groups over an arbitrary field. More precisely, we study degree $2$ invariants with coefficients $\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z}(1)$, that is invariants…
We give a version of the Artin-Tate formula for surfaces over finite fields not assuming Tate's conjecture. It gives an equality between terms related to the Brauer group on the one hand and terms related to the Neron-Severi group on the…
We classify absolutely split vector bundles on proper $k$-schemes. More precise, we prove that the closed points of the Picard scheme are in one-to-one correspondence with indecomposable absolutely split vector bundles. Furthermore, we…
We study the Brauer group of an abelian variety A over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p focusing on the p-primary torsion, the key part of which is a certain quasi-algebraic unipotent group U_A. We determine its dimension…
We consider the problem of counting the number of varieties in a family over a number field which contain a rational point. In particular, for products of Brauer-Severi varieties and closely related counting functions associated to Brauer…
In this paper, by assuming a faithful action of a finite flat $\mathbb{Z}_p$-algebra $\mathscr{R}$ on a $p$-divisible group $\mathcal{G}$ defined over the ring of $p$-adic integers $\mathscr{O}_K$, we construct a category of new…
As a continuation of arXiv:1412.6888, we study the reciprocity map for an open curve $X$ over a local field of characteristic $p>0$. We determine the $p$-part of the kernel of the reciprocity map after restricting ramification when the rank…
We introduce a stratification on the space of symplectic flags on the de Rham bundle of the universal principally polarized abelian variety in positive characteristic and study its geometric properties like irreducibility of the strata and…
We study K3 surfaces with complex multiplication following the classical work of Shimura on CM abelian varieties. After we translate the problem in terms of the arithmetic of the CM field and its id\`{e}les, we proceed to study some abelian…
A field $F$ is a $\mathfrak{B}_s$-field if, for every finite extension $E'/E$ of $F$, the norm map $K_s^M(E')\to K_s^M(E)$ of the Milnor $K$-groups is surjective. In particular, finite fields ($s=1$), local fields, and certain global fields…
The paper has two parts. First we prove that the specialization maps on R-equivalence and on the Chow group of zero cycles are isomorphisms for families over a local, Henselian, Dedekind ring when the special fiber is smooth and separably…
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 geometric criterion to check the validity of the integral Tate conjecture for one-cycles on a smooth projective variety that is separably rationally connected in codimension one, and to check that the Brauer-Manin obstruction is…
In this paper we introduce two new ways to split ramification of Brauer classes on surfaces using stacks. Each splitting method gives rise to a new moduli space of twisted stacky vector bundles. By studying the structure of these spaces we…
Let $\pi : Y \to X$ be a branched $\mathbf{Z}/p \mathbf{Z}$-cover of smooth, projective, geometrically connected curves over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$. We investigate the relationship between the $a$-numbers of $Y$ and $X$ and…
We extend earlier examples provided by Schoen, Nori and Bloch to show that when a surface has the property that the kernel of its Albanese map is non-zero over the field of complex numbers, this kernel is non-zero over a field of…
We investigate the viability of defining an intersection product on algebraic cycles on a singular algebraic variety by pushing forward intersection products formed on a resolution of singularities. For varieties with resolutions having a…
