We show that Bloch's complex of relative zero-cycles can be used as a dualizing complex over perfect fields and number rings. This leads to duality theorems for torsion sheaves on arbitrary separated schemes of finite type over…

Let \(A\) be a central simple algebra over a field \(F\) with index \(n\) and let \(\mathrm{SB}_r(A)\) denote the \(r\)-th generalized Severi--Brauer variety associated with \(A\). We prove that the Chow group of zero cycles of degree zero…

We construct a theory of motivic cohomology for quasi-compact, quasi-separated schemes of equal characteristic, which is related to non-connective algebraic $K$-theory via an Atiyah--Hirzebruch spectral sequence, and to \'etale cohomology…

A local-global sequence for Chow groups of zero-cycles involving Brauer groups has been conjectured to be exact for all proper smooth algebraic varieties. We apply existing methods to construct several new families of varieties verifying…

Let $X$ be a rationally connected algebraic variety, defined over a number field $k$. We find a relation between the arithmetic of rational points on $X$ and the arithmetic of zero-cycles. More precisely, we consider the following…

A theorem of Esnault, Srinivas and Viehweg asserts that if the Chow group of 0-cycles of a smooth complete complex variety decomposes, then the top-degree coherent cohomology group decomposes similarly. In this note, we prove that (a weak…

We introduce a new obstruction to the existence of a universal $0$-cycle on a smooth projective complex variety. As an application, we construct a smooth projective complex surface whose Chow group of $0$-cycles is representable but which…

Let U be a smooth quasi-projective variety over a field k that is finite, the algebraic closure of a finite field or algebraically closed of characteristic 0. Let X be a suitable projective compactification of U, and D an effective divisor…

We continue our investigation of the geometry of the Albanese morphism on 0-cycles. We provide an example of a smooth projective variety with representable CH_0-group but with no universal 0-cycle, which answers a question asked by…

In this short note we extend some results obtained in \cite{Gazaki2015}. First, we prove that for an abelian variety $A$ with good ordinary reduction over a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with $p$ an odd prime, the Albanese kernel of…

We provide a cohomological interpretation of the zeroth stable $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy group of a smooth curve over an infinite perfect field. We show that this group is isomorphic to the first Nisnevich (or Zariski) cohomology group of a…

A conjecture of Voisin states that two points on a smooth projective complex variety whose algebra of holomorphic forms is generated in degree 2 are rationally equivalent to each other if and only if their difference lies in the third step…

We study families of rational curves on certain irreducible holomorphic symplectic varieties. In particular, we prove that any ample linear system on a projective holomorphic symplectic variety of K3[n]-type contains a uniruled divisor. As…

This paper proposes a conjectural picture for the structure of the Chow ring of a (projective) hyper-K\"ahler variety, and the construction of a Beauville decomposition, with emphasis on the Chow group of $0$-cycles, which is endowed with a…

We give bounds on the order of torsion in the Chow group of zero dimensional cycles for isotropic Grassmannians and Brauer-Severi flag varieties. To do this, we introduce tools to understand the behavior of torsion in Chow groups with…

We propose a "Bloch type" conjecture for surfaces: if the cup product map in coherent cohomology is zero, then all intersections of homologically trivial divisors should be zero in the Chow group of zero-cycles. We prove this conjecture for…

We show how the notion of the transcendence degree of a zero-cycle on a smooth projective variety X is related to the structure of the motive M(X). This can be of particular interest in the context of Bloch's conjecture, especially for…

A field $F$ is a $\mathfrak{B}_s$-field if, for every finite extension $E'/E$ of $F$, the norm map $K_s^M(E')\to K_s^M(E)$ of the Milnor $K$-groups is surjective. In particular, finite fields ($s=1$), local fields, and certain global fields…

We study the deformations of the Chow group of zero-cycles of the special fibre of a smooth scheme over a henselian discrete valuation ring. Our main tools are Bloch's formula and differential forms. As a corollary we get an algebraization…

Smooth projective varieties $X$ over a finite field $k$ with $CH_0(X\otimes \bar{k(X)})=\mathbb Z$ have a rational point, in particular Fano varieties. We also refer to http://link.springer.de/link/service/journals/00222/tocs.htm where the…
