This note concerns hyperk\"ahler fourfolds $X$ having a non-symplectic involution $\iota$. The Bloch-Beilinson conjectures predict the way $\iota$ should act on certain pieces of the Chow groups of $X$. The main result is a verification of…
We show that Mildenhall's theorem implies that the indecomposable higher Chow group of a self-product of an elliptic curve over the complex number field is infinite dimensional, if the elliptic curve is modular and defined over rational…
We prove that if the Morrison cone conjecture holds for a smooth Calabi-Yau threefold $Y$, it holds for any smooth Calabi-Yau threefold deformation-equivalent to $Y$. We use this result to prove a new case of the Morrison cone conjecture.
Suppose $C$ is a smooth projective curve of genus 1 over a perfect field $F$, and $E$ is its Jacobian. In the case that $C$ has no $F$-rational points, so that $C$ and $E$ are not isomorphic, $C$ is an $E$-torsor with a class $\delta(C)\in…
The geometric torsion conjecture asserts that the torsion part of the Mordell--Weil group of a family of abelian varieties over a complex quasiprojective curve is uniformly bounded in terms of the genus of the curve. We prove the conjecture…
We prove a sufficient condition for the vanishing of the modified diagonal cycle in the Chow group (with $\mathbb{Q}$-coefficients) of the triple product of a curve over $\mathbb{C}$. We exhibit infinitely many non-hyperelliptic curves,…
For a smooth projective variety X, let CH(X) be the Chow ring (with rational coefficients) of algebraic cycles modulo rational equivalence. The conjectures of Bloch and Beilinson predict the existence of a functorial ring filtration of…
It is unknown whether smooth cubic threefolds have an (integral Chow-theoretic) decomposition of the diagonal, or whether they are stably rational or not in general. As a first step towards making progress on these questions, we compute the…
The goal is to verify the Hodge conjecture (and some related conjectures) for certain moduli spaces. It is shown that the (generalized) Hodge conjecture holds for the projective moduli spaces of vector bundles over an abelian or K3 surface…
Let $X$ be the product of a surface satisfying $b_2=\rho$ and of a curve over a finite field. We study a strong form of the integral Tate conjecture for $1$-cycles on $X$. We generalize and give unconditional proofs of several results of…
Let $X$ be a complex smooth projective variety of dimension $d$. Under some assumption on the cohomology of $X$, we construct mutually orthogonal idempotents in $CH_d(X \times X) \otimes \Q$ whose action on algebraically trivial cycles…
A threefold isogenous to a product of curves $X$ is a quotient of a product of three compact Riemann surfaces of genus at least two by the free action of a finite group. In this paper we study these threefolds under the assumption that the…
We show that every component of the locus of smooth supersingular curves of genus $4$ in characteristic $p>2$ has a trivial generic automorphism group. As a result, we prove Oort's conjecture about automorphism groups of supersingular…
This paper gives a conjectural characterization of those elliptic curves over the field of complex numbers which "should" be covered by standard modular curves. The elliptic curves in question all have algebraic j-invariant, so they can be…
Given a genus two curve $X: y^2 = x^5 + a x^3 + b x^2 + c x + d$, we give an explicit parametrization of all other such curves $Y$ with a specified symplectic isomorphism on three-torsion of Jacobians $\mbox{Jac}(X)[3] \cong…
We show that under some assumptions on the monodromy group some combinations of higher Chern classes of flat vector bundles are torsion in the Chow group. Similar results hold for flat vector bundles that deform to such flat vector bundles…
We prove that if the classical Baum-Connes conjecture in complex K-theory is true (for a given discrete group G), then the conjecture is also true in the real case (for the same group G). The essential ingredients of the proof are the…
Quadratic conjecture is a strengthening of oliver's $p$-group conjecture. Let $G$ be a $p$-group of maximal class of order $p^n$. We prove that if $n\le 8$ or $n\ge \max\{2p-6,p+2\}$ then $G$ satisfies Quadratic Conjecture. Hence quadratic…
We provide an alternative proof that the Chow group of $1$-cycles on a Severi--Brauer variety associated to a biquaternion division algebra is torsion-free. There are three proofs of this result in the literature, all of which are due to…
For a smooth projective variety $X$ over a number field $k$ a conjecture of Bloch and Beilinson predicts that the kernel of the Albanese map of $X$ is a torsion group. In this article we consider a product $X=C_1\times\cdots\times C_d$ of…
