In this paper we introduce the local Nori fundamental group scheme of a reduced scheme or algebraic stack over a perfect field $k$. We give particular attention to the case of fields: to any field extension $K/k$ we attach a pro-local group…

For $X$ a complete, reduced, geometrically connected scheme over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$, we analyze the decomposition of Nori's fundamental group scheme into its local and \'etale parts and raise the question of the…

We give a condition that ensures that a fibered category over a field admits a universal morphism to a profinite gerbe. This fundamental gerbe generalizes both Nori's fundamental group scheme and Deligne's relative fundamental groupoid.…

Let $k$ be a field, $K/k$ a field extension, $X$ a connected scheme proper over $k$, $x_K\in X_K(K)$ lying over $x\in X(k)$, $\mathcal{C}_X$ and $\mathcal{C}_{X_K}$ the Tannakian categories over $X$ and $X_K$ respectively,…

We define a linear structure on Grothendieck's arithmetic fundamental group $\pi_1(X, x)$ of a scheme $X$ defined over a field $k$ of characteristic 0. It allows us to link the existence of sections of the Galois group ${\rm Gal}(\bar k/k)$…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 3$. Let $A$ be an abelian surface over $k$. Fix an integer $n \geq 1$ such that $p \nmid n$ and let $K^{[n]}$ be the $n$-th Generalized Kummer Variety associated to $A$. In…

We introduce three notion of tameness of the Nori fundamental group scheme for a normal quasiprojective variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field. It is proved that these three notions agree if $X$ admits a smooth completion with…

We prove the existence of a Galois closure for towers of torsors under finite group schemes over a proper, geometrically connected and geometrically reduced algebraic stack $X$ over a field $k$. This is done by describing the Nori…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 3$. Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth projective surface over $k$. Fix an integer $n \geq 1$ and let ${\mathcal{H}{\it ilb}}_X^n$ be the Hilbert scheme parameterizing effective…

The goal of this paper is to show that fundamental concepts in higher-order Fourier analysis can be nauturally extended to the non-commutative setting. We generalize Gowers norms to arbitrary compact non-commutative groups. On the…

We extend the definition of fundamental group scheme to non reduced schemes over any connected Dedekind scheme. Then we compare the fundamental group scheme of an affine scheme with that of its reduced part.

We define the algebraic fundamental group functor of a reductive group scheme over an arbitrary (non-empty) base scheme and prove that this functor is exact.

For a class of affine algebraic groups $\mathcal C$ over a field, we define the notions of $\mathcal C$-fundamental gerbe of a fibered category, generalizing what we had done in arXiv:1204.1260 for finite group schemes. We give sufficient…

We show that Nori's fundamental group scheme \pi(X,x) does not base change correctly under extension of the base field for certain smooth projective ordinary curves X of genus 2 defined over a field of characteristic 2.

In this paper we extend the generalized algebraic fundamental group constructed by Esnault and Hogadi to general fibered categories using the language of gerbes. As an application we obtain a Tannakian interpretation for the Nori…

We define the notion of fundamental group of an algebraic stack, prove a comparison theorem between the fundamental group of a stack over the complex numbers and that of the associated analytic orbifold, show that this notion coincides with…

Fixed an algebraic scheme $Y$. We suggest a definition for the conjugate of an algebraic scheme $X$ over $Y$ in an evident manner; then $X$ is said to be Galois closed over $Y$ if $X$ has a unique conjugate over $Y$. Now let $X$ and $Y$…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Chambert-Loir proved that the \'etale fundamental group of a normal rationally chain connected variety over $k$ is finite. We prove that the fundamental group scheme of a normal rationally chain…

In this paper, we study a certain extension of Nori's fundamental group in the case where a base field is of characteristic 0 and give structure theorems about it. As a result, for a smooth projective curve with genus $g$>1, we prove that…
