Let $k$ be a number field and let $\pi \colon X \rightarrow \mathbb{P}_k^1$ be a smooth conic bundle. We show that if $X/k$ has four geometric singular fibers with $X(\mathbb{A}_k)\neq \emptyset$ or non-trivial Brauer group, then $X$…

We give a constructive proof of the Hodge conjecture for complex $K3$ surfaces that does not rely on Torelli-type results. Starting with an arbitrary rational $(1,1)$-class $\alpha\in H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb{Q})$, we algorithmically build a…

Let k be an algebraically closed subfield of the complex numbers, and X a variety defined over k. One version of the Beilinson-Hodge conjecture that seems to survive scrutiny is the statement that the Betti cycle class map cl_{r,m} :…

We study non-isotrivial families of $K3$ surfaces in positive characteristic $p$ whose geometric generic fibers satisfy $\rho\geq21-2h$ and $h\geq3$, where $\rho$ is the Picard number and $h$ is the height of the formal Brauer group. We…

Let $K$ be a field which is complete for a discrete valuation. We prove a logarithmic version of the N\'eron-Ogg-Shafarevich criterion: if $A$ is an abelian variety over $K$ which is cohomologically tame, then $A$ has good reduction in the…

We describe a new approach to relative p-adic Hodge theory based on systematic use of Witt vector constructions and nonarchimedean analytic geometry in the style of both Berkovich and Huber. We give a thorough development of phi-modules…

Let $k$ be a non-archimedean complete field. We prove a substitute for the reduced fiber theorem (of Bosch, L\"utkebohmert and Raynaud) that holds for every morphism $Y\to X$ flat and with geometrically reduced fibers between $k$-affinoid…

Any smooth, projective variety satisfies the Hodge conjecture in codimension one, known as the Lefschetz (1,1) theorem. Totaro formulated a version for singular varieties. He asked whether the natural Bloch-Gillet-Soul\'{e} cycle class map…

We study basic properties of the category of smooth representations of a p-adic group G with coefficients in any commutative ring R in which p is invertible. Our main purpose is to prove that Hecke algebras are noetherian whenever R is ; a…

In this paper we show that a smooth toric variety $X$ of Picard number $r\leq 3$ always admits a nef primitive collection supported on a hyperplane admitting non-trivial intersection with the cone $\Nef(X)$ of numerically effective divisors…

We study the Picard groups of moduli spaces in positive characteristics and we give a "$p$-adic" proof that the Picard group of moduli of vector bundles of fixed determinant is isomorphic to the group of integers. Along the way we prove…

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…

The aim of this note is to use elementary methods to give a large class of examples of projective varieties $ Y \subseteq \mathbb{P}^d_k$ over a field $k$ with the property that $Y$ is not isomorphic to a hypersurface $H\subseteq…

Let p be a prime number. We give a conjecture of a sheaf-theoretic nature which is equivalent to the strong form of the Tate conjecture for smooth, projective varieties X over F_p: for all n>0, the order of pole of the Hasse-Weil zeta…

Given an open subset U of a projective curve Y and a smooth family f:V-->U of curves, with semi-stable reduction over Y, we show that for a sub variation of Hodge structures of rank >2 the Arakelov inequality must be strict. For families of…

We study when the Picard group of smooth surfaces of degree $d\geq 5$ in $\mathbb{P}^3$ acquires extra classes. In particular we show that the so called exceptional components of the Noether-Lefschetz locus are not Zariski dense. This…

We study a variant of the Neron models over curves which is recently found by the second named author in a more general situation using the theory of Hodge modules. We show that its identity component is a certain open subset of an iterated…

The rank $\rho$ of the N\'eron-Severi group of a complex torus $X$ of dimension $g$ satisfies $0\leq\rho\leq g^2=h^{1,1}.$ The degree $\mathfrak{d}$ of the extension field generated over $\mathbb{Q}$ by the entries of a period matrix of $X$…

We give a theorem of Leray-Hirsch type for Chow groups and use it to study the Hogde and Grothendieck's standard conjectures for algebraic fiber bundles of Leray-Hirsch type. Morevoer, the Hodge conjecture for product varieties will also be…

We propose a geometric and categorical approach to the Hodge Conjecture for all smooth projective complex varieties. By embedding any such variety into a flat family with general fibers smooth complete intersections, we prove the conjecture…
