The main result of the paper is that if $A$ is an abelian variety over a subfield $F$ of ${\bold C}$, and $A$ has purely multiplicative reduction at a discrete valuation of $F$, then the Hodge group of $A$ is semisimple. Further, we give…
Fix a smooth, projective, geometrically integral curve $C$ of genus $g \geq 2$ over a characteristic zero field. We prove that the Ceresa cycle $\mathrm{Cer}(\widetilde{C})$ of a very general ramified cover $\widetilde{C}$ of $C$ is…
For a smooth projective variety $X$ over a number field $k$ a conjecture of Bloch and Beilinson predicts that the kernel of the Albanese map of $X$ is a torsion group. In this article we consider a product $X=C_1\times\cdots\times C_d$ of…
We relate the torsion part of the Abel-Jacobi kernel in the Griffiths group of 1-cycles to a birational invariant analogous to the degree 4 unramified cohomology and an invariant associated to the generalized Hodge conjecture in degree…
Let $K$ be a local field of residue characteristic $p$. Let $C$ be a curve over $K$ whose minimal proper regular model has totally degenerate semi-stable reduction. Under certain hypotheses, we compute the prime-to-$p$ rational torsion…
For discrete groups, we construct two bounded cohomology classes with coefficients in the second space of the reduced real $\ell_1$-homology. Precisely, we associate to any discrete group $G$ a bounded cohomology class of degree two noted…
In this note, we consider the Lyndon--Hochschild--Serre spectral sequence corresponding to the first Frobenius kernel of an algebraic group G, computing the extensions between simple $G$-modules. We state and discuss a conjecture that…
In the first part of our paper, we show that there exist non-isomorphic derived equivalent genus $1$ curves, and correspondingly there exist non-isomorphic moduli spaces of stable vector bundles on genus $1$ curves in general. Neither…
In this paper we prove a conjecture of Hershel Farkas that if a 4-dimensional principally polarized abelian variety has a vanishing theta-null, and the hessian of the theta function at the corresponding point of order two is degenerate, the…
Given an elliptic fibration $f \colon X \to S$ over the spectrum of a complete discrete valuation ring with algebraically closed residue field, we use a Hochschild--Serre spectral sequence to express the torsion in $R^1f_\ast \mathscr{O}_X$…
In this paper we answer two long-standing questions in the classification of $G$-torsors on curves for an almost simple, simply connected algebraic group $G$ over the field of complex numbers. The first question is to give an intrinsic…
A differentially recursive sequence over a differential field is a sequence of elements satisfying a homogeneous differential equation with non-constant coefficients (namely, Taylor expansions of elements of the field) in the differential…
Let (A,\lambda) be a principally polarized abelian variety defined over a global field k, and let \Sha(A) be its Shafarevich-Tate group. Let \Sha(A)_\nd denote the quotient of \Sha(A) by its maximal divisible subgroup. Cassels and Tate…
We study the 2-parity conjecture for Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves over number fields. Under some mild assumptions on their reduction, we prove the conjecture over quadratic extensions of the base field. The proof proceeds via a…
The Grothendieck-Serre conjecture predicts that every generically trivial torsor under a reductive group $G$ over a regular semilocal ring $R$ is trivial. We establish this for unramified $R$ granted that $G^{\mathrm{ad}}$ is totally…
We study the categorical Torelli theorem for smooth (weighted) hypersurfaces in (weighted) projective spaces via the Hochschild--Serre algebra of its Kuznetsov component. In the first part of the paper, we show that a natural graded…
We construct an analogue of the Lyndon-Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence in the context of polynomial cohomology, for group extensions. If G is an extension of Q by H, then the spectral sequence converges to the polynomial cohomology of G.…
Let X be a smooth proper variety over a perfect field k of arbitrary characteristic. Let D be an effective divisor on X with multiplicity. We introduce an Albanese variety Alb(X, D) of X of modulus D as a higher dimensional analogon of the…
We give a criterion for the sheaf of K\"ahler differentials on a cone over a smooth projective variety to be torsion-free. Applying this to Veronese embeddings of projective space and using known results on differentials on quotient…
We extend the classification results for torsion classes and torsion-free classes in the category of finitely generated modules over a commutative noetherian ring to suitable symmetric monoidal closed noetherian abelian categories. Our main…
