We consider surfaces of geometric genus $3$ with the property that their transcendental cohomology splits into $3$ pieces, each piece coming from a $K3$ surface. For certain families of surfaces with this property, we can show there is a…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ denote the finite field of $q$ elements with characteristic $p$. Let $\mathbb{Z}_q$ denote the unramified extension of the $p$-adic integers $\mathbb{Z}_p$ with residue field $\mathbb{F}_q$. In this paper, we investigate…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be an irreducible algebraic curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p>2$. Assume that the $\mathbb{F}_q$-automorphism group of $\mathcal{X}$ admits as an automorphism group the direct product of…

It is conjectured that there exist finitely many isomorphism classes of simple endomorphism algebras of abelian varieties of GL_2-type over \Q of bounded dimension. We explore this conjecture when particularized to quaternion endomorphism…

Let X be a projective scheme over a finite field. In this paper, we consider the asymptotic behavior of the number of effective cycles on X with bounded degree as it goes to the infinity. By this estimate, we can define a certain kind of…

We consider a product $X=E_1\times\cdots\times E_d$ of elliptic curves over a finite extension $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with a combination of good or split multiplicative reduction. We assume that at most one of the elliptic curves has…

Soit $X$ une vari\'et\'e projective et lisse, d\'efinie sur un corps de nombres. Sous l'hypoth\`ese $H^2(X,\mathcal O_X)=0,$ Colliot-Th\'el\`ene et Raskind ont d\'emontr\'e que le sous-groupe de torsion $CH^2(X)_{tors}$ du groupe de Chow en…

Given a smooth variety $X$ and an effective Cartier divisor $D \subset X$, we show that the cohomological Chow group of 0-cycles on the double of $X$ along $D$ has a canonical decomposition in terms of the Chow group of 0-cycles ${\rm…

Motivated by the Bloch-Beilinson conjectures, Voisin has formulated a conjecture about 0-cycles on self-products of surfaces of geometric genus one. We verify Voisin's conjecture for the family of Todorov surfaces with $K^2=2$ and…

Let k be a perfect field and A a finite dimensional k-algebra of finite global dimension (e.g. the path algebra of a finite quiver without oriented cycles). Making use of the recent theory of noncommutative motives, we prove that the value…

We show that the span of special cycles in the $r$th Chow group of a Shimura variety of orthogonal type is finite dimensional, if $r < 5$. As our main tool, we develop the theory of Jacobi forms with rational index $M \in \Mat{N}(\QQ)$.

Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective algebraic variety. Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a $G$-banded gerbe with $G$ a finite abelian group. We prove an exact formula expressing genus $g$ orbifold Gromov-Witten invariants of $\mathcal{G}$ in terms of…

Let $X$ and $S$ be complex spaces with $X$ countable at infinity and $S$ reduced locally pure dimensional. Let $\pi:X\to S$ be an universally-$n$-equidimensional morphism (i.e open with constant pure $n$-dimensional fibers). If there is a…

Let $k$ be an infinite finitely generated field of characteristic $p>0$. Fix a separated scheme $X$ smooth, geometrically connected, and of finite type over $k$ and a smooth proper morphism $f:Y\rightarrow X$. The main result of this paper…

We use the theory of q-characters to establish a number of short exact sequences in the category of finite-dimensional representations of the quantum affine groups of types A and B. That allows us to introduce a set of 3-term recurrence…

Our paper originated from a generalization of the Volume Conjecture to multisums of $q$-hypergeometric terms. This generalization was sketched by Kontsevich in a problem list in Aarhus University in 2006; \cite{Ko}. We introduce the notion…

For a geometrically rational surface X over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from 2 and 3 that contains all roots of 1, we show that either X is birational to a product of a projective line and a conic, or the group of…

A variety $X$ is covered by lines if there exist a finite number of lines contained in $X$ passing through each general point. I prove two theorems. Theorem 1:Let $X^n\subset P^M$ be a variety covered by lines. Then there are at most $n!$…

We say that a finitely generated group $G$ has property (QT) if it acts isometrically on a finite product of quasi-trees so that orbit maps are quasi-isometric embeddings. A quasi-tree is a connected graph with path metric quasi-isometric…
