A new approach to Nori's weak Lefschetz theorem is described. The new approach, which involves the dbar-method, avoids moving arguments and gives much stronger results. In particular, it is proved that if X and Y are connected smooth…
The aim of this article is to prove that, under certain conditions, an affine flat normal scheme that is of finite type over a local Dedekind scheme in mixed characteristic admits infinitely many normal effective Cartier divisors. For the…
In this paper, we study a certain extension of Nori's fundamental group in the case where a base field is of characteristic 0 and give structure theorems about it. As a result, for a smooth projective curve with genus $g$>1, we prove that…
Given a Henselian and Japanese discrete valuation ring $A$ and a flat and projective $A$-scheme $X$, we follow the approach of Biswas-dos Santos to introduce a full subcategory of coherent modules on $X$ which is then shown to be Tannakian.…
On $X$ projective smooth over an algebraically closed field, we show that if Nori's fundamental group scheme is trivial, then there are no nontrivial Nori semistable bundles of degree 0, that is the group scheme $\pi^S(X)$ studied in…
For $X$ a complete, reduced, geometrically connected scheme over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$, we analyze the decomposition of Nori's fundamental group scheme into its local and \'etale parts and raise the question of the…
We define the abelian fundamental group with modulus of a regular flat scheme over a discrete valuation ring, taking into account wild ramification along a divisor. Our definition provides a mixed-characteristic analogue of the abelian…
Let $U$ be a smooth and connected curve over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, with smooth compactification $X$. We generalize classical Geometric Class Field theory to provide a classification of fppf $G$-torsors…
Let $X$ be any scheme defined over a Dedekind scheme $S$ with a given section $x\in X(S)$. We prove the existence of a pro-finite $S$-group scheme $\aleph(X,x)$ and a universal $\aleph(X,x)$-torsor dominating all the pro-finite pointed…
We prove a Lefschetz (1,1)-Theorem for proper seminormal varieties over the complex numbers. The proof is a non-trivial geometric argument applied to the isogeny class of the Lefschetz 1-motive associated to the mixed Hodge structure on…
Given an algebraic stack, we compare its Nori fundamental group with that of its coarse moduli space. We also study conditions under which the stack can be uniformized by an algebraic space.
We compute the class groups of very general normal surfaces in complex projective three-space containing an arbitrary base locus $Z$, thereby extending the classic Noether-Lefschetz theorem (the case when $Z$ is empty). Our method is an…
We generalize the logarithmic purity theorem of Fujiwara-Kato to torsors which arise in the Kummer log flat topology under finite flat linearly reductive group schemes. As an application, we construct the logarithmic Nori fundamental group…
We establish a Grothendieck--Lefschetz theorem for smooth ample subvarieties of smooth projective varieties over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and, more generally, for smooth subvarieties whose complement has small…
We give a condition that ensures that a fibered category over a field admits a universal morphism to a profinite gerbe. This fundamental gerbe generalizes both Nori's fundamental group scheme and Deligne's relative fundamental groupoid.…
We extend the unramified class field theory for arithmetic schemes of K. Kato and S. Saito to the tame case. Let $X$ be a regular proper arithmetic scheme and let $D$ be a divisor on $X$ whose vertical irreducible components are normal…
We introduce a new fundamental group scheme for varieties defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic and we use it to study generalization of some of C. Simpson's results to positive characteristic. We also study…
The notion of a tamely ramified covering is canonical only for curves. Several notions of tameness for coverings of higher dimensional schemes have been used in the literature. We show that all these definitions are essentially equivalent.…
In this paper, we prove that the group $\mathrm{Aut}_\mathbb{Q}(X)$ of numerically trivial automorphisms are uniformly bounded for smooth projective threefolds $X$ of general type which either satisfy $q(X)\geq 3$ or have a Gorenstein…
Let $p$ be a prime number, and let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$. We show that the tame fundamental group of a smooth affine curve over $k$ is a projective profinite group. We prove that the fundamental group of…
