Under some hypotheses on the singular type of the one-parameter family of elliptic curves in a primitively polarized $K3$ surface $S$ determined by its polarization (which is expected to be true for a very general polarized $K3$ surface),…

This note concerns hyperk\"ahler fourfolds $X$ having a non-symplectic involution $\iota$. The Bloch-Beilinson conjectures predict the way $\iota$ should act on certain pieces of the Chow groups of $X$. The main result is a verification of…

Let \(X\subset \mathbb{P}^{n+1}\) be a smooth cubic hypersurface, and let \(F(X)\) be the variety of lines on \(X\). We prove the surjectivity of the cylinder maps on the Chow groups of \(F(X)\) and \(X\) if \(X\) contains a one-cycle of…

For a smooth projective variety X, let CH(X) be the Chow ring (with rational coefficients) of algebraic cycles modulo rational equivalence. The conjectures of Bloch and Beilinson predict the existence of a functorial ring filtration of…

We construct two examples of projective hyper-K\"ahler fourfolds of K3[2]-type with an action of the alternating group A7, making them some of the most symmetric hyper-K\"ahler fourfolds. They are realized as so called double EPW sextics…

Let $X$ be a hyperk\"ahler variety. Voisin has conjectured that the classes of Lagrangian constant cycle subvarieties in the Chow ring of $X$ should lie in a subring injecting into cohomology. We study this conjecture for the Fano variety…

Let C be a curve over a non-singular base variety S. We study algebraic cycles on the symmetric powers C^[n] and on the Jacobian J. The Chow homology of C^[*], the sum of all C^[n], is a ring using the Pontryagin product. We prove that this…

We consider 3-dimensional toric Calabi-Yau singularities which arise as cones over the Chow quotient for a torus acting on projective space. We show that the Chow forms of the closures of the codimension 2 orbits can very easily be written…

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 X be a K3 surface. We show that the Chow group CH_0(X) of 0-cycles contains a "fundamental class" c_X of degree 1 with remarkable properties: any product of divisors is proportional to this class, and so is the second Chern class…

The hypothetical existence of a good theory of mixed motives predicts many deep phenomena related to algebraic cycles. One of these, a generalization of Bloch's conjecture says that "small Hodge diamonds" go with "small Chow groups".…

A locally complete family of projective symplectic 4-folds is provided by natural double covers of Eisenbud-Popescu-Walter (EPW) sextic hypersurfaces in projective 5-space. The dual of an EPW sextic is another EPW sextic, thus to a double…

We apply the classical technique on cyclic objects of Alain Connes to various objects, in particular to the higher Chow complex of S. Bloch to prove a Connes periodicity long exact sequence involving motivic cohomology groups. The Cyclic…

Double EPW quartics are hyperk\"ahler varieties of dimension 4, first introduced by Iliev, Kapustka, Kapustka, and Ranestad. The general double EPW quartic is isomorphic to a moduli space of twisted sheaves on a $K3$ surface. They have a…

The Beilinson-Bloch type conjectures predict that the low degree rational Chow groups of intersections of quadrics are one dimensional. This conjecture was proved by Otwinowska. Making use of homological projective duality and the recent…

Works by O'Grady allow to associate to a 2-dimensional Gushel-Mukai variety, which is a K3 surface, a double EPW sextic. We characterize the K3 surfaces whose associated double EPW sextic is smooth. As a consequence, we are able to produce…

We formulate a conjectural hard Lefschetz property for Chow groups, and prove this in some special cases: roughly speaking, for varieties with finite-dimensional motive, and for varieties whose self-product has vanishing middle-dimensional…

We compute explicitly the Chow motive of any generalized Kummer variety associated to any abelian surface. In fact, it lies in the rigid tensor subcategory of the category of Chow motives generated by the Chow motive of the underlying…

We show that every supersingular K3 surface is birational to a double cover of a projective plane.

A remarkable result of Peter O'Sullivan asserts that the algebra epimorphism from the rational Chow ring of an abelian variety to its rational Chow ring modulo numerical equivalence admits a (canonical) section. Motivated by Beauville's…
