We establish a Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for the Berkovich analytifications of Jacobians of curves over an algebraically closed non-Archimedean field. Let $J$ be the Jacobian of a curve $X$, and let $W_d \subset J$ be the locus of…

As is well known, the Lefschetz theorems for the \'etale fundamental group of SGA1 do not hold. We fill a small gap in the literature showing they do for tame coverings. Let $X$ be a regular projective variety over a field $k$, and let…

This paper explores the cohomological consequences of the existence of moduli spaces for flat bundles with bounded rank and irregularity at infinity and gives unconditional proofs. Namely, we prove the existence of a universal bound for the…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field, and let $L$ be an ample line bundle over $X$. We prove that for any smooth hypersurface $D$ on $X$ in the complete linear system $| L^{\otimes d}|$, the…

In this paper we show some Lefschetz-type theorems for the effective cone of Hyperk\"ahler varieties. In particular we are able to show that the inclusion of any smooth ample divisor induces an isomorphism of effective cones. Moreover we…

We prove that for a normal projective variety $X$ in characteristic 0, and a base-point free ample line bundle $L$ on it, the restriction map of divisor class groups $\Cl(X)\to \Cl(Y)$ is an isomorphism for a general member $Y\in |L|$…

We show that abelian surfaces (and consequently curves of genus 2) over totally real fields are potentially modular. As a consequence, we obtain the expected meromorphic continuation and functional equations of their Hasse--Weil zeta…

We prove that $\bar {\mathbb Q}_\ell$-local systems of bounded rank and ramification on a smooth variety $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p\neq \ell$ are tamified outside of codimension $2$ by a finite…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety in a field of characteristic $0$. We prove that the expansion of $A$ by a generic divisible subgroup of $A$ with the same torsion exists provided $A$ has few algebraic endomorphisms, namely…

We prove the Lefschetz hyperplane section theorem using a simpler machinery by making the observation that we can compose the Lefschetz Pencil with a Real Morse function to get a map from the variety to $\mathbb{R}$ which is "close" to…

Let A be an abelian surface over F_q, the field of q elements. The rational points on A/\F_q form an abelian group A(\F_q) \simeq \Z/n_1\Z \times \Z/n_1 n_2 \Z \times \Z/n_1 n_2 n_3\Z \times\Z/n_1 n_2 n_3 n_4\Z. We are interested in knowing…

In this paper, we study some group-theoretic constructions associated to arithmetic fundamental groups of hyperbolic curves over finite fields. One of the main results of this paper asserts that any Frobenius-preserving isomorphism between…

We study the behaviour of the topological fundamental group under totally ramified abelian covers (a special case of abelian Galois covers) of complex projective varieties of dimension at least 2.

We compute the class groups of very general normal surfaces in complex projective three-space containing an arbitrary base locus $Z$, thereby extending the classic Noether-Lefschetz theorem (the case when $Z$ is empty). Our method is an…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field. We show that $A$ is the automorphism group scheme of some smooth projective variety if and only if $A$ has only finitely many automorphisms as an algebraic group. This…

We prove that an analogue of Jordan's theorem on finite subgroups of general linear groups holds for the groups of biregular automorphisms of algebraic surfaces. This gives a positive answer to a question of Vladimir L. Popov.

In this paper, we show the fundamental theorems for rotationally symmetric hypersurfaces, and thus, together with the earlier results in [3] and [4], provide a complete classification of umbilic hypersurfaces in the Heisenberg groups…

Let X be a smooth projective variety over the complex numbers, and let D be an ample divisor in X. For which spaces Y is the restriction map r: Hom(X, Y) -> Hom(D, Y) an isomorphism? Using positive characteristic methods, we give a fairly…

A Lefschetz module is a module over a graded algebra $A$ that satisfies analogues of Poincar\'{e} duality, the Hard Lefschetz property, and the Hodge--Riemann relations with respect to an open convex cone $\mathscr{K}$ in the degree one…

Let us consider an abelian variety defined over $\mathbb{Q_{\ell}}$ with good supersingular reduction. In this paper we give explicit conditions that ensure that the action of the wild inertia group on the $\ell$-torsion points of the…
