This article gives the proof of results announced in [J. Blanc, Finite Abelian subgroups of the Cremona group of the plane, C.R. Acad. Sci. Paris, S\'er. I 344 (2007), 21-26.] and some description of automorphisms of rational surfaces.…

Let $X$ be a product of smooth projective curves over a finite unramified extension $k$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. Suppose that the Albanese variety of $X$ has good reduction and that $X$ has a $k$-rational point. We propose the following…

In this paper, we classify irregular threefolds with numerically trivial canonical divisors in positive characteristic. For such a variety, if its Albanese dimension is not maximal, then the Albanese morphism will induce a fibration which…

Among all affine, flat, finitely presented group schemes, we focus on those that are pure, this includes all groups which are extensions of a finite locally free group by a group with connected fibres. We prove that over an arbitrary base…

We consider linear groups and Lie groups over a non-Archimedean local field $\mathbb F$ for which the power map $x\mapsto x^k$ has a dense image or it is surjective. We prove that the group of $\mathbb F$-points of such algebraic groups is…

Fix an abelian variety $A_0$ and a non-isotrivial abelian scheme over a smooth irreducible curve, both defined over the algebraic numbers. Consider the union of all images of translates of a fixed finite-rank subgroup of $A_0$, also defined…

In this paper, we study a question of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene and Iyer concerning the existence of rational sections in families of homogeneous spaces over an abelian variety, after base change by a suitable \'etale isogeny of the abelian…

We prove that arboreal Galois extensions of number fields are never abelian for post-critically finite rational maps and non-preperiodic base points. For polynomials, this establishes a new class of known cases of a conjecture of…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over a finite field $\bF_q$, homogeneous under a linear algebraic group. We show that the number of rational points of $X$ over $\bF_{q^n}$ is a periodic polynomial function of $q^n$ with integer…

Assuming the abundance conjecture and the existence of a Zariski dense set of rational curves on terminal Calabi--Yau varieties, we show that a complex projective weakly special manifold $X$ with no rational curves is an \'etale quotient of…

The fundamental group of the complement of a plane curve is a very important topological invariant. In particular, it is interesting to find out whether this group is determined by the combinatorics of the curve or not, and whether it is a…

In this article, we show that for any non-isotrivial family of abelian varieties over a rational base with big monodromy, those members that have adelic Galois representation with image as large as possible form a density-$1$ subset. Our…

We introduce the concept of the modularity of an abelian variety defined over the rational number field extending the modularity of an elliptic curve. We discuss the modularity of an abelian variety over the rational number field. We…

Let f:X->Y be an algebraic fiber space such that the general fiber has a good minimal model. We show that if f is the Iitaka fibration or if f is the Albanese map of relative dimension no more than three, then X has a good minimal model.

In [17], we proved a structure theorem on the Mordell-Weil group of abelian varieties over function fields that arise as the twists of abelian varieties by the cyclic covers of projective varieties in terms of the Prym varieties associated…

In this paper we study some properties of fibers of the invariant moment map for a Hamiltonian action of a reductive group on an affine symplectic varieity. We prove that all fibers have equal dimension. Further, under some additional…

We prove that every countable subgroup of a compact metrizable abelian group has a characterizing set. As an application, we answer several questions on maximally almost periodic (MAP) groups and give a characterization of the class of…

Assuming the Hodge conjecture for abelian varieties of CM-type, one obtains a good category of abelian motives over the algebraic closure of a finite field and a reduction functor to it from the category of CM-motives. Consequentely, one…

We study smooth projective complex varieties with ample cotangent bundle. Our main result is that in an abelian variety of dimension n, a complete intersection of at least n/2 general hypersurfaces of sufficiently high degrees has ample…

For an $\A^1$-connected pointed simplicial sheaf $\sX$ over a perfect field $k$, we prove that the Hurewicz map $\pi_1^{\A^1}(\sX) \to H_1^{\A^1}(\sX)$ is surjective. We also observe that the Hurewicz map for $\P^1_k$ is the abelianisation…
