Grothendieck gave two forms of his "main conjecture of anabelian geometry", i.e. the section conjecture and the hom conjecture. He stated that these two forms are equivalent and that if they hold for hyperbolic curves then they hold for…

Assume that the section conjecture holds over number fields. We prove then that it holds for a broad class of curves defined over finitely generated extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$. This class contains every projective, hyperelliptic curve,…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $\geq2$ over a number field. A natural variant of Grothendieck's Section Conjecture postulates that every section of the fundamental exact sequence for $X$ which everywhere locally comes from a…

We formulate a tropical analogue of Grothendieck's section conjecture: that for every stable graph G of genus g>2, and every field k, the generic curve with reduction type G over k satisfies the section conjecture. We prove many cases of…

We investigate sections of arithmetic fundamental groups of hyperbolic curves over function fields. As a consequence we prove that the anabelian section conjecture of Grothendieck holds over all finitely generated fields over $\Bbb Q$ if it…

The cuspidalization conjecture emerged as an approach of Grothendieck's famous section conjecture. We address a weak form of it by using a mild generalization of a theorem of Uwe Jannsen which describes exactly when the $l$-adic homology of…

We prove that every hyperbolic curve with a faithful action of a non-cyclic $p$-group (with a few exceptions if $p=2$) has a twisted form of index $1$ which satisfies Grothendieck's section conjecture. Furthermore, we prove that for every…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus >1 over a field K which is finitely generated over the rationals. The section conjecture in Grothendieck's anabelian geometry says that the sections of the canonical projection from the arithmetic…

In this paper we propose and study topological and Hodge theoretic analogues of Grothendieck's section conjecture over the complex numbers. We study these questions in the context of family of curves, in particular Kodaira fibrations, and…

Given a smooth projective curve $X$ of genus at least 2 over a number field $k$, Grothendieck's Section Conjecture predicts that the canonical projection from the \'etale fundamental group of $X$ onto the absolute Galois group of $k$ has a…

We study the Section Conjecture in \'etale homotopy theory for varieties over $\mathbb{R}$. We prove its pro-$2$ variant for equivariantly triangulable varieties. Examples include all smooth varieties as well as all (possibly singular)…

We give an elementary proof of the real section conjecture for quasi-projective hyperbolic curves and semi-abelian varieties. The underlying argument is essentially equivalent to the one given by J. Stix.

We establish a valuative version of Grothendieck's section conjecture for curves over p-adic local fields. The image of every section is contained in the decomposition subgroup of a valuation which prolongs the p-adic valuation to the…

Let $X$ be a smooth, projective, geometrically irreducible curve of genus at least two defined over a number field $K$. We prove that there is an algorithm that determines whether $X$ has a $K$-rational point if Grothendieck's section…

The toric fundamental group is the Tannaka dual of a category of vector bundles which become direct sums of line bundles on a finite \'etale cover. It is an extension of the \'etale fundamental group scheme by a projective limit of tori.…

We show that Generic Green's conjecture holds for generic binary curves, through a detailed analysis of the family of scrolls containing fixed rational normal curves.

Let $X$ be a curve over a field $k$ finitely generated over $\mathbb{Q}$ and $t$ an indeterminate. We prove that, if $s$ is a section of $\pi_{1}(X)\to\operatorname{Gal}(k)$ such that the base change $s_{k(t)}$ is birationally liftable,…

In this paper we formulate and prove a combinatorial version of the section conjecture for finite groups acting on finite graphs. We apply this result to the study of rational points and show that finite descent is the only obstruction to…

We propose an Artinian version of Berger's Conjecture for curves, concerning the module of K\"ahler differentials of an algebra. Our version implies Berger's Conjecture in characteristic 0. We establish our Artinian Berger Conjecture in a…

Grothendieck conjectured in the sixties that the even Kunneth projector (with respect to a Weil cohomology theory) is algebraic and that the homological equivalence relation on algebraic cycles coincides with the numerical equivalence…
