Let $X$ be a hyperk\"ahler variety, and assume $X$ has a non-symplectic automorphism $\sigma$ of order $>{1\over 2}\dim X$. Bloch's conjecture predicts that the quotient $X/<\sigma>$ should have trivial Chow group of $0$-cycles. We verify…

Following the work of Harris and Kudla we prove a more general form of a conjecture of Jacquet relating the non-vanishing of a certain period integral to non-vanishing of the central critical value of a certain $L$-function. As a…

We verify Katzarkov-Kontsevich-Pantev conjecture for Landau-Ginzburg models of smooth Fano threefolds.

We use the universal generation of algebraic cycles to relate (stable) rationality to the integral Hodge conjecture. We show that the Chow group of 1-cycles on a cubic hypersurface is universally generated by lines. Applications are mainly…

We prove Bloch's conjecture for correspondences on powers of complex abelian varieties, that are "generically defined". As an application we establish vanishing results for (skew-)symmetric cycles on powers of abelian varieties and we…

Eisenbud Popescu and Walter have constructed certain special 4-dimensional sextic hypersurfaces as Lagrangian degeneracy loci. We prove that the natural double cover of a generic EPW-sextic is a deformation of the Hilbert square of a…

We give a simple argument to prove Nagai's conjecture for type II degenerations of compact hyperk\"ahler manifolds and cohomology classes of middle degree. Under an additional assumption, the techniques yield the conjecture in arbitrary…

We introduce and study the notion of "surface decomposable" variety, and discuss the possibility that any projective hyper-K\"ahler manifold is surface decomposable, which would produce new evidence for Beauville's weak splitting…

I state a conjecture asserting that for all generic klt Fano varieties X, there exists a generalised cluster variety U and a surjection from the set of torus charts on U to the set of toric specializations of X. I prove the conjecture in…

We prove a conjecture which expresses the bigraded Poisson-de Rham homology of the nilpotent cone of a semisimple Lie algebra in terms of the generalized (one-variable) Kostka polynomials, via a formula suggested by Lusztig. This allows us…

The generalized Lax conjecture asserts that each hyperbolicity cone is a linear slice of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices. We prove the conjecture for a multivariate generalization of the matching polynomial. This is further…

We show that a wide range of Fano varieties of K3 type, recently constructed by Bernardara, Fatighenti, Manivel and Tanturri, have a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen-Vial. It follows that the Chow ring of…

We compute the Picard group of the universal abelian variety over the moduli stack $\mathscr A_{g,n}$ of principally polarized abelian varieties over $\mathbb{C}$ with a symplectic principal level $n$-structure. We then prove that over…

Using the techniques introduced by Corvaja and Zannier we solve the non-split case of the geometric Lang-Vojta Conjecture for affine surfaces isomorphic to the complement of a conic and two lines in the projective plane. In this situation…

In this paper, we study rational sections of the relative Picard variety of a linear system on a smooth projective variety. Specifically, we prove that if the linear system is basepoint-free and the locus of non-integral divisors has…

Recently N. Levin (Comp. Math. 127 (2001), 1--21) proved the Tate conjecture for ordinary cubic fourfolds over finite fields. In this paper we prove the Tate conjecture for self-products of ordinary cubic fourfolds. Our proof is based on…

We prove a version of the Kawamata-Morrison ample cone conjecture for projective irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds deformation equivalent to either the Hilbert scheme of n points on a K3 surface, or a generalized Kummer variety.

The Green-Griffiths-Lang conjecture stipulates that for every projective variety $X$ of general type over ${\mathbb C}$, there exists a proper algebraic subvariety of $X$ containing all non constant entire curves $f:{\mathbb C}\to X$. Using…

For schemes X over global or local fields, or over their rings of integers, K. Kato stated several conjectures on certain complexes of Gersten-Bloch-Ogus type, generalizing the fundamental exact sequence of Brauer groups for a global field.…

In this paper, we establish a strategy for the calculation of the proportion of everywhere locally soluble diagonal hypersurfaces of $\mathbb{P}^{n}$ of fixed degree. Our strategy is based on the product formula established by Bright,…
