We exhibit infinitely many extremal effective codimension-$k$ cycles in $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ in the cases $g\geq 3, n\geq g-1$ and $k=2$, $g\geq 2$, $k\leq n-g,g,$ and $g=1$, $k\leq n-2$. Hence in these cases the effective cone is…

We study the Chow group of zero-cycles of smooth projective varieties over local and strictly local fields. We prove in particular the injectivity of the cycle class map to integral l-adic cohomology for a large class of surfaces with…

We prove a motivic enhancement of the classical Picard--Lefschetz formula. Our proof is completely motivic, and yields a description of the motivic nearby cycles at a quasi-homogeneous singularity, as well as its monodromy, in terms of an…

We study a certain cycle map defined on finite dimensional modules for the W-algebra with regular integral central character. Via comparison with the theory in postive characteristic, we show that this map injects into the top Borel-Moore…

For a linear algebraic group $G$ over a field $k$, we define an equivariant version of the Voevodsky's motivic cobordism $MGL$. We show that this is an oriented cohomology theory with localization sequence on the category of smooth…

One of the main results of this paper is a proof of the rank one case of an existence conjecture on lisse l-adic sheaves on a smooth variety over a finite field due to Deligne and Drinfeld. The problem is translated into the language of…

We give examples of smooth $\k$-unirational line-free quartic hypersurfaces over a non algebraically closed field $\k$. Unlike other methods of proving unirationality, our method does not rely on existence of linear spaces on quartics.

We construct a collection of higher Chow cycles on certain surfaces which degenerate to an arrangement of planes in general position. When its degree is 4, this construction gives a new explicit proof of the Hodge-D-Conjecture for a certain…

Let T_\alpha denote the rotation T_{\alpha}x=x+\alpha (mod 1) by an irrational number \alpha on the additive circle T=[0,1). Let \beta_1,..., \beta_d be d\geqslant 1 parameters in [0, 1). One of the goals of this paper is to describe the…

For any standard quadric surface bundle over $\mathbb P^2$, we show that the locus of rational fibres is dense in the moduli space.

We prove a moving lemma for the additive and ordinary higher Chow groups of relative $0$-cycles of regular semi-local $k$-schemes essentially of finite type over an infinite perfect field. From this, we show that the cycle classes can be…

The classical table of integrals by I. S. Gradshteyn and I. M. Ryzhik contains many definite integrals where the integrand is the product of a rational function times the logarithm of another rational function. We begin the systematic…

We show that the additive higher Chow groups of regular schemes over a field induce a Zariski sheaf of pro-differential graded algebras, whose Milnor range is isomorphic to the Zariski sheaf of big de Rham-Witt complexes. This provides an…

We enumerate smooth rational curves on very general Weierstrass fibrations over hypersurfaces in projective space. The generating functions for these numbers lie in the ring of classical modular forms. The method of proof uses topological…

We introduce and study a notion of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity suitable for rational normal scroll surfaces. In this setting we prove analogs of some classical properties. We prove splitting criteria for coherent sheaves and a…

The goal of the present paper is to provide a mathematically rigorous foundation to certain aspects of rational orbifold conformal field theory, in other words the theory of rational vertex operator algebras and their automorphisms. Under a…

We obtain finiteness theorems for algebraic cycles of small codimension on quadric fibrations X over curves over perfect fields k. For example, if k is finitely generated over Q and the fibration has odd relative dimension at least 11, then…

The double ramification cycle satisfies a basic multiplicative relation DRC(a).DRC(b) = DRC(a).DRC(a + b) over the locus of compact-type curves, but this relation fails in the Chow ring of the moduli space of stable curves. We restore this…

In this paper we classify curves of genus two over a perfect field k of characteristic two. We find rational models of curves with a given arithmetic structure for the ramification divisor and we give necessary and sufficient conditions for…

We prove that two cusps of the same dimension in the Baily-Borel compactification of some classical series of modular varieties are linearly dependent in the rational Chow group of the compactification. This gives a higher dimensional…
