We adapt for algebraically closed fields $k$ of characteristic greater than $2$ two results of Voisin, on the decomposition of the diagonal of a smooth cubic hypersurface $X$ of dimension $3$ over $\mathbb C$, namely: the equivalence…
This paper studies the canonical Chow quotient of a smooth projective variety by a reductive algebraic group. The main purpose is to give some topological interpretations and characterization of Chow quotient which have the advantage to be…
For a product $E_1\times E_2$ of two elliptic curves over a $p$-adic field with good supersingular reduction, we produce infinitely many rational equivalences in the Chow group $\mathrm{CH}_0(X)$ of zero cycles via genus 2 covers of $E_1$…
An old conjecture of Voisin describes how $0$-cycles on a surface $S$ should behave when pulled-back to the self-product $S^m$ for $m>p_g(S)$. We show that Voisin's conjecture is true for a $3$-dimensional family of surfaces of general type…
The notion of modulus is a striking feature of Rosenlicht-Serre's theory of generalized Jacobian varieties of curves. It was carried over to algebraic cycles on general varieties by Bloch-Esnault, Park, R\"ulling, Krishna-Levine. Recently,…
We prove analogues of several well-known results concerning rational morphisms between quadrics for the class of so-called quasilinear $p$-hypersurfaces. These hypersurfaces are nowhere smooth over the base field, so many of the geometric…
Two cycles on a projective variety over an algebraically closed field are shown to be rationally equivalent if and only if their difference equals a difference of complete intersections of a certain kind. Some of Bloch's conjectures for…
We prove the existence of a canonical zero-cycle on a Calabi-Yau hypersurface X in a complex projective homogeneous variety. More precisely, we show that the intersection of any n divisors on X, n=dim X, is proportional to the class of a…
The Chow quotient of a projective variety by the action of a complex torus is known to have a very complicated geometry, even in the case of simple varieties, such as rational homogeneous varieties. In this paper we propose an approach in…
The algebraic cobordism group of a scheme is generated by cycles that are proper morphisms from smooth quasiprojective varieties. We prove that over a field of characteristic zero the quasiprojectivity assumption can be omitted to get the…
We show, for a smooth projective variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ with an effective Cartier divisor $D$, that the torsion subgroup $\CH_0(X|D)\{l\}$ can be described in terms of a relative {\'e}tale cohomology for any…
We study symplectic varieties defined over fields of positive characteristics, especially the supersingular ones, generalizing the theory of supersingular K3 surfaces. In this work, we are mainly interested in the following two types of…
Let k be a characteristic zero field, C a k-algebra and M a square zero two sided ideal of C. We obtain a new mixed complex, simpler that the canonical one, giving the Hochschild and cyclic homologies of C relative to M. This complex…
We introduce in this note the notion of the category of twisted Chow-Witt correspondences $CHW(k)$ over a field $k$ of characteristic different from $2$. Moreover, we show that over an infinite perfect field this category $CHW(k)$ admits a…
In a recent paper, the first author proved the log-concavity of the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of a matroid realizable over a field of characteristic 0, answering a long-standing conjecture of Read in graph theory. We…
We study twisted forms of Schubert cells in generalized Severi-Brauer varieties, and show that the codimension $2$ Chow groups of these varieties are torsion free in certain cases, using the topological filtration on their K-theory
Let $X$ be a separated scheme of dimension $d$ of finite type over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. In this work, we show that Bloch's cycle complex $\mathbb{Z}^c_X$ of zero cycles mod $p^n$ is quasi-isomorphic to the…
This survey, which contains very few proofs, addresses the general question: Over a given type of field, is there a natural class of varieties which automatically have a rational point? Fields under consideration here include: finite…
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…
In this article, we revisit the construction of some algebraic cycles due to Chad Schoen on certain Prym Varieties. More precisely, we show that these cycles arise naturally from (unramified) geometric class field theory, and apply it to…
