In this paper, we proved two results regarding the arithmetics of separably $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected varieties of rank one. First we proved over a large field, there is an $\mathbb{A}^1$-curve through any rational point of the boundary, if…

In this note we prove that the moduli stack of vector bundles on a curve, with a fixed determinant is $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected. We obtain this result by classifying vector bundles on a curve upto $\mathbb{A}^1$-concordance. Consequently we…

A plane curve is called strange if its tangent line at any smooth point passes through a fixed point, called the strange point. In this paper, we study $\mathbb{A}^1$-curves on the complement of a rational strange curve of degree $p$ in…

A conjecture of Morel asserts that the sheaf of $\mathbb A^1$-connected components of a space is $\mathbb A^1$-invariant. Using purely algebro-geometric methods, we determine the sheaf of $\mathbb A^1$-connected components of a smooth…

In this article we prove that any $\mathbb{A}^1$-contractible smooth complex surface is isomorphic as a variety to $\mathbb{C}^2$. We show that the $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected component of a variety $X$ contains the information about…

We study the relationship between several notions of connectedness arising in ${\mathbb A}^1$-homotopy theory of smooth schemes over a field $k$: ${\mathbb A}^1$-connectedness, stable ${\mathbb A}^1$-connectedness and motivic connectedness,…

We show that $\mathbb A^1$-connectedness of a large class of varieties over a field $k$ can be characterized as the condition that their generic point can be connected to a $k$-rational point using (not necessarily naive) $\mathbb…

In this paper, we study $\mathbb{A}^1$ curves on log K3 surfaces. We classify all genuine log K3 surfaces of type II which admits countably infinite $\mathbb{A}^1$ curves.

We survey some topics in ${\mathbb A}^1$-homotopy theory. Our main goal is to highlight the interplay between ${\mathbb A}^1$-homotopy theory and affine algebraic geometry, focusing on the varieties that are "contractible" from various…

A smooth, proper, retract rational variety over a field $k$ is known to be $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected. We improve on this result, in the case when $k$ is infinite, showing that such varieties are naively $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected.

We start to study the problem of classifying smooth proper varieties over a field k from the standpoint of A^1-homotopy theory. Motivated by the topological theory of surgery, we discuss the problem of classifying up to isomorphism all…

By studying $\mathbb{A}^1$-curves on varieties, we propose a geometric approach to strong approximation problem over function fields of complex curves. We prove that strong approximation holds for smooth, low degree affine complete…

We study smooth morphisms $f \colon X \to S$ that are $\mathbb{A}^1$-contractible in the unstable $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy category $\mathcal{H}(S)$. For base schemes $S$ of finite Krull dimension, we show that $\mathbb{A}^1$-contractibility…

We examine logarithmic connections with vanishing p-curvature on smooth curves by studying their kernels, describing them in terms of formal local decomposition. We then apply our results in the case of connections of rank 2 on P^1,…

In this paper, we prove an $\mathbb{A}^1$-homology version of the Whitehead theorem with dimension bound. We also prove an excision theorem for $\mathbb{A}^1$-homology, Suslin homology and $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy sheaves. In order to prove…

We introduce in this paper a hypercohomology version of the resonance varieties and obtain some relations to the characteristic varieties of rank one local systems on a smooth quasi-projective complex variety $M$, see Theorem (3.1) and…

In this article we prove that any $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected smooth $k$-variety is $\mathbb{A}^1$-uniruled for any algebraically closed field $k$. We establish that if a non empty open subscheme $X$ of a smooth affine $k$-scheme is…

Let $C$ be an irreducible smooth projective curve of genus $g\geq 2$ over an algebraically closed field. We prove that the moduli stack of semi-stable vector bundles on $C$ of fixed rank and determinant is $\mathbb{A}^1$--connected. We also…

We explicitly describe the $\mathbb A^1$-chain homotopy classes of morphisms from a smooth henselian local scheme into a smooth projective surface, which is birationally ruled over a curve of genus $> 0$. We consequently determine the sheaf…

This note is devoted to a trick which yields almost trivial proofs that certain complexes associated to topological surfaces are connected or simply connected. Applications include new proofs that the complexes of curves, separating curves,…
