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…

The Abstract for this revised version is the following: Let k be a number field, let C be a smooth, projective and geometrically integral k-curve and let p:X --> C be a Severi-Brauer k-fibration of squarefree index. Various authors have…

We construct varieties B(r;An) such that a map X -> B(r;An) corresponds to a degree-n \'etale algebra on X equipped with r generating global sections. We then show that when n = 2, i.e., in the quadratic \'etale case, that the singular…

Rost defined the Chow group of algebraic cycles with coefficients in a locally constant torsion etale sheaf. We generalize the definition to allow non-torsion coefficients. Chow groups with twisted coefficients are related to Serre's notion…

To a smooth projective variety $X$ whose Chow group of $0$-cycles is $\mathbf Q$-universally trivial one can associate its torsion index $\mathrm{Tor}(X)$, the smallest multiple of the diagonal appearing in a cycle-theoretic decomposition…

We call a projective surface $X$ mixed quasi-\'etale quotient if there exists a curve $C$ of genus $g(C)\geq 2$ and a finite group $G$ that acts on $C\times C$ exchanging the factors such that $X=(C\times C)/G$ and the map $C\times C…

We prove that, for any smooth and projective scheme $X$ over a field $k$ of char. $0$, the set of maps from Spec $k$ to $X$ in the $\mathbf{A}^1$-homotopy category of schemes $\mathcal{H}_{\mathbf{A}^1}(k)$ is in bijection with the quotient…

For specific classes of smooth, projective varieties $X$ over a field $k$, we compare two cycle maps on the torsion subgroup $CH^2(X)_{\text{tors} }$ of the second Chow group. The first one goes back to work of S. Bloch (1981), the second…

Let $k$ a field of characteristic zero. Let $X$ be a smooth, projective, geometrically rational $k$-surface. Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a universal torsor over $X$ with a $k$-point et $\mathcal{T}^c$ a smooth compactification of $\mathcal{T}$.…

We present an algorithm to compute the torsion component $\mathrm{Pic}^\tau X$ of the Picard scheme of a smooth projective variety $X$ over a field $k$. Specifically, we describe $\mathrm{Pic}^\tau X$ as a closed subscheme of a projective…

Let G be an infinitesimal group scheme of finite height r and V(G) the scheme which represents 1-parameter subgroups of G. We consider sheaves over the projectivization P(G) of V(G) constructed from a G-module M. We show that if P(G) is…

We consider the category of Deligne 1-motives over a perfect field k of exponential characteristic p and its derived category for a suitable exact structure after inverting p. As a first result, we provide a fully faithful embedding into an…

Let $S$ be a Noetherian scheme, and let $X$ be a scheme over $S$, such that all relative symmetric powers of $X$ over $S$ exist. Assume that either $S$ is of pure characteristic $0$ or $X$ is flat over $S$. Assume also that the structural…
