We show that the reduced motive of a smooth affine quadric is invertible as an object of the triangulated category of motives DM(k, ZZ[1/e]) (where k is a perfect field of exponential characteristic e). We also establish a motivic version…

Let $X$ be a smooth cubic hypersurface, and let $F$ be the Fano variety of lines on $X$. We establish a relation between the Chow motives of $X$ and $F$. This relation implies in particular that if $X$ has finite-dimensional motive (in the…

Relying on recent advances in the theory of motives we develope a general formalism for derived categories of motives with Q-coefficients on perfect (ind-)schemes. As an application we give a motivic refinement of Zhu's geometric Satake…

After a brief introduction to the classical theory of binary quadratic forms we use these results for proving (most of) the claims made by P\'epin in a series of articles on unsolvable quartic diophantine equations, and for constructing…

For any nonzero $h\in\mathbb{Z}$, we prove that a positive proportion of integral binary cubic forms $F$ do locally everywhere represent $h$ but do not globally represent $h$; that is, a positive proportion of cubic Thue equations…

The purpose of this note is to prove that the Chow motive of the Fano surface of lines on the smooth cubic threefold is finite-dimensional in the sense of Kimura. This gives an example of a smooth projective variety that is not dominated by…

For squarefree $d>1$, let $M$ denote the ring class field for the order $Z[\sqrt{-3d}]$ in $F=Q(\sqrt{-3d})$. Hasse proved that $3$ divides the class number of $F$ if and only if there exists a cubic extension $E$ of $Q$ such that $E$ and…

We define the height of a motive over a number field. We show that if we assume the finiteness of motives of bounded height, Tate conjecture for the $p$-adic Tate module can be proved for motives with good reduction at $p$.

Let G be a split semisimple linear algebraic group over a field k0. Let E be a G-torsor over a field extension k of k0. Let h be an algebraic oriented cohomology theory in the sense of Levine-Morel. Consider a twisted form E/B of the…

We compute the Chow motive and the Chow groups with rational coefficients of the Hilbert scheme of points on a smooth algebraic surface

Let G be a semisimple affine algebraic group of inner type over a field F. We write C for the class of all finite direct products of projective G-homogeneous F-varieties. We determine the structure of the Chow motives with coefficients in a…

We prove the following result which was conjectured by Stichtenoth and Xing: let $g$ be the genus of a projective, irreducible non-singular curve over the finite field $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ and whose number of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$-rational points…

For any finite field k of characteristic exceeding 3, the Hasse principle and weak approximation is established for non-singular cubic hypersurfaces X over the function field k(t), provided that X has dimension at least 6.

We define the category of \'etale Chow motives as the \'etale analogue of Grothendieck motives and proved that it embeds in $\text{DM}_{\text{\'et}}(k)$. This construction provides a characterization of the generalized Hodge conjecture in…

The main goal of this paper is to define a certain Chow weight structure $w_{Chow}$ on the category $DM_c(S)$ of (constructible) $cdh$-motives over an equicharacteristic scheme $S$. In contrast to the previous papers of D. H\'ebert and the…

Ch\^atelet surfaces provide a rich source of geometrically rational surfaces which do not always satisfy the Hasse principle. Restricting attention to a special class of Ch\^atelet surfaces, we investigate the frequency that such…

We characterize the integral Hasse principle for an infinite family of spherical stacky curves with genus $g\in [2/3,1)$ that are defined using generalized Fermat equations, extending a result of Darmon and Granville. We then apply our…

Let $L$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$. We calculate the proportion of polynomials of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ that are everywhere locally norms from $L/\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ which fail to be global norms from…

We give an elementary proof to Hasse theorem.

We establish new upper bounds on the number of failures of the integral Hasse principle within the family of Markoff type cubic surfaces $x^2+ y^2+ z^2- xyz= a$ with $|a|\leq A$ as $A\to \infty$. Our bound improves upon existing work of…
