In this paper, the generalized Bloch Conjecture on zero cycles for the quotient of certain complete intersections with trivial canonical bundle is proved to hold. As an application of Bloch-Srinivas method on the decomposition of the…

A complex projective manifold is rationally connected, resp. rationally simply connected, if finite subsets are connected by a rational curve, resp. the spaces parameterizing these connecting rational curves are themselves rationally…

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 consider linear systems on toric varieties of any dimension, with invariant base points, giving a characterization of special linear systems. We then make a new conjecture for linear systems on rational surfaces.

For a moduli space of Bridgeland-stable objects on a K3 surface, we show that the Chow class of a point is determined by the Chern class of the corresponding object on the surface. This establishes a conjecture of Junliang Shen, Qizheng…

For families of smooth complex projective varieties we show that normal functions arising from algebraically trivial cycle classes are algebraic, and defined over the field of definition of the family. In particular, the zero loci of those…

Let X be a projective complex K3 surface. Beauville and Voisin singled out a 0-cycle c_X on X of degree 1: it is represented by any point lying on a rational curve in X. Huybrechts proved that the second Chern class of a rigid simple…

In this paper we define a descending filtration on the Chow group of zero cycles for varieties of the form $A \times C_1 \times \cdots \times C_d$ where $A$ is an abelian variety and each $C_i$ is a smooth projective curve. We give explicit…

We consider a $10$-dimensional family of Lehn-Lehn-Sorger-van Straten hyperk\"ahler eightfolds which have a non-symplectic automorphism of order $3$. Using the theory of finite-dimensional motives, we show that the action of this…

Chen, Li, Zhang, and Zhang extended the results of Shen, Yin, and Zhao on zero-cycles on moduli spaces of stable objects on $K3$ surfaces to the twisted setting. In this work, we complement this by extending results by Vial and Martin--Vial…

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…

It is conjectured that the Brauer--Manin obstruction is expected to control the existence of 0-cycles of degree 1 on smooth proper varieties over number fields. In this paper, we prove that the existence of Brauer--Manin obstruction to…

If $X$ is an abelian variety over a field and $L$ is an invertible sheaf, we know that the degree of the 0-cycle $L^g$ is divisible by $g!$. As a 0-cycle, it is not, even over a field of cohomological dimension 1. But we show that over a…

We introduce a new obstruction to lifting smooth proper varieties in characteristic $p>0$ to characteristic $0$. It is based on Grothendieck's specialization homomorphism and the resulting discrete finiteness properties of \'etale…

A foliation is of toric type when it has a combinatorial reduction of singularities. We show that every toric type foliation on (C3, 0), without saddle-nodes, has invariant surface. We extend the argument of Cano-Cerveau, done for the…

Let $X$ be an affine, simplicial toric variety over a field. Let $G_0$ denote the Grothendieck group of coherent sheaves on a Noetherian scheme and let $F^1G_0$ denote the first step of the filtration on $G_0$ by codimension of support.…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and let $X$ be a projective variety embedded into a projective space over $k$. For two natural numbers $r$ and $d$ let $C_{r,d}(X)$ be the Chow scheme parametrizing effective cycles of dimension…

Inspired by the Bloch-Beilinson conjectures, Voisin has formulated a conjecture concerning the behaviour of 0-cycles on self-products of varieties of geometric genus one. This note presents some new examples of surfaces for which Voisin's…

We present and expand some existing results on the Zariski closure of cyclic groups and semigroups of matrices. We show that, with the exclusion of isolated points, their irreducible components are toric varieties. Additionally, we…

We define an `enriched' notion of Chow groups for algebraic varieties, agreeing with the conventional notion for complete varieties, but enjoying a functorial push-forward for arbitrary maps. This tool allows us to glue…
