We introduce a notion of constructibility for \'etale sheaves with torsion coefficients over a suitable class of adic spaces. This notion is related to the classical notion of constructibility for schemes via the nearby cycles functor. We…

We study in this article the dual of a (strictly) commutative group stack $G$ and give some applications. Using the Picard functor and the Picard stack of $G$, we first give some sufficient conditions for $G$ to be dualizable. Then, for an…

For an abelian variety $A$ over a finitely generated field $K$ of characteristic $p > 0$, we prove that the algebraic rank of $A$ is at most a suitably defined analytic rank. Moreover, we prove that equality, i.e., the BSD rank conjecture,…

Given a torsion pair $(\mathcal{T},\mathcal{F})$ in an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$ and its Happel-Reiten-Smal{\o} tilt $\mathcal{B}$, the equivalence of the realization functor $D^b({\mathcal B})\to D^b({\mathcal A})$ is determined by…

We survey recent advances in non-abelian Hodge theory in the "mixed" setting of non-proper algebraic varieties. We then describe how these tools are used to construct algebraic Shafarevich morphisms and prove a version of the linear…

Let $A$ be a 2-dimensional abelian variety defined over a number field $K$. Fix a prime number $\ell$ and suppose $\#A(\mathbb{F}_p) \equiv 0 \pmod{\ell^2}$ for a set of primes $\mathfrak{p} \subset \mathcal{O}_K$ of density 1. When…

Let $X:=\mathbb{A}^{n}_{R}$ be the $n$-dimensional affine space over a discrete valuation ring $R$ with fraction field $K$. We prove that any pointed torsor $Y$ over $\mathbb{A}^{n}_{K}$ under the action of an affine finite type group…

In this note we show that any basic abelian variety with additional structures over an arbitrary algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ is isogenous to another one defined over a finite field. We also show that the category of…

Let G be an algebraic reductive group over a an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. Choose a parabolic subgroup $P$ in $G$ and denote by $U$ its unipotent radical. Let $X$ be a $G$-variety. The purpose of this paper is to…

We present a class of abelian groups that exhibit a high degree of freeness while possessing no non-trivial homomorphisms to a canonical free object. Unlike prior investigations, which primarily focused on torsion-free groups, our work…

We study the relationship between the period and the index of a principal homogeneous space over an abelian variety, obtaining results which generalize work of Cassels and Lichtenbaum on curves of genus one. In addition, we show that the…

Let R be a Henselian discrete valuation ring with field of fractions K. If X is a smooth variety over K and G a torus over K, then we consider X-torsors under G. If XX/R is a model of X then, using a result of Brahm, we show that X-torsors…

Suppose $X$ is a torsor under an abelian variety $A$ over a number field. We show that any adelic point of $X$ that is orthogonal to the algebraic Brauer group of $X$ is orthogonal to the whole Brauer group of $X$. We also show that if…

We construct for every proper algebraic space over a ground field an Albanese map to a para-abelian variety, which is unique up to unique isomorphism. This holds in the absence of rational points or ample sheaves, and also for reducible or…
