This article is the first part of a two-part work on the Albanese kernel T_F(E x E), for an elliptic curve E over F. The main result furnishes information, for any odd prime p, about the kernel and image of the Galois symbol map from T_F(E…
We construct new indecomposable elements in the higher Chow group CH2(A,1) of a principally polarized Abelian surface over a non Archimedean local field, which generalize an element constructed by Collino. These elements are constructed…
We prove a restriction isomorphism for Chow groups of zero-cycles with coefficients in Milnor K-theory for smooth projective schemes over excellent henselian discrete valuation rings. Furthermore, we study torsion subgroups of these groups…
A cyclic $n$-gonal surface is a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g\geq 2$ admitting a cyclic group of conformal automorphisms $C$ of order $n$ such that the quotient space $X/C$ has genus 0. In this paper, we provide an overview of…
We compare various groups of 0-cycles on quasi-projective varieties over a field. As applications, we show that for certain singular projective varieties, the Levine-Weibel Chow group of 0-cycles coincides with the corresponding…
For a smooth projective variety X over an arbitrary field k, we discuss the surjectivity of the Albanese map from the Chow group of zero-cycles of degree zero on X to the group of rational points of the Albanese variety of X. Over…
Given a connected algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field and a G-homogeneous space X, we describe the Chow ring of G and the rational Chow ring of X, with special attention to the Picard group. Also, we investigate the…
The paper has two parts. First we prove that the specialization maps on R-equivalence and on the Chow group of zero cycles are isomorphisms for families over a local, Henselian, Dedekind ring when the special fiber is smooth and separably…
Though the Chow group of 0-cycles on a K3 surface is quite large, we observe that the subgroup generated by product of divisors is cyclic.
We provide an alternative proof that the Chow group of $1$-cycles on a Severi--Brauer variety associated to a biquaternion division algebra is torsion-free. There are three proofs of this result in the literature, all of which are due to…
One of the main results of this paper is a proof of the rank one case of an existence conjecture on lisse l-adic sheaves on a smooth variety over a finite field due to Deligne and Drinfeld. The problem is translated into the language of…
A bielliptic surface (or hyperelliptic surface) is a smooth surface with a numerically trivial canonical divisor such that the Albanese morphism is an elliptic fibration. In the first part of this paper, we study the structure of bielliptic…
Let X be a smooth projective variety of dimension n. If $p+q=n+1$ then Bloch has defined a ${\bf G}_m$-biextension E over the product of the Chow groups $CH^p_0(X)$ and $CH^q_0(X)$ of homologically trivial cycles. We prove that E is the…
Let X be a K3 surface. We show that the Chow group CH_0(X) of 0-cycles contains a "fundamental class" c_X of degree 1 with remarkable properties: any product of divisors is proportional to this class, and so is the second Chern class…
In this paper, we study an analogue of the Tate conjecture for $K_2$ of U, the complement of split multiplicative fibers in an elliptic surface. A main result is to give an upper bound of the rank of the Galois fixed part of the etale…
Bielliptic and quasi-bielliptic surfaces form one of the four classes of minimal smooth projective surfaces of Kodaira dimension $0$. In this article, we determine the automorphism schemes of these surfaces over algebraically closed fields…
We use the elements in $K$-cohomology groups which are constructed by Flach and Mildenhall to obtain a finiteness result for the torsion part of the Chow group of a self-product of a modular curve.
We present a conjectural formula describing the cokernel of the Albanese map of zero-cycles of smooth projective varieties $X$ over $p$-adic fields in terms of the N\'eron-Severi group and provide a proof under additional assumptions on an…
This paper gives computations of all the $G$-theory groups of several classes of simplicial toric varieties, including all affine toric surfaces when the base field is algebraically closed and has characteristic zero, all weighted…
In this paper we study minimal algebraic surfaces with $p_g=q=1,K^2=4$ and nonhyperelliptic Albanese fibrations of genus 4. We construct for the first time a family of such surfaces as complete intersections of type $(2,3)$ in a…
