Let A be a modular abelian variety of GL2-type over a totally real field F of class number one. Under some mild assumptions, we show that the Mordell-Weil rank of A grows polynomially over Hilbert class fields of CM extensions of F.
We prove that two arithmetically significant extensions of a field F coincide if and only if the Witt ring WF is a group ring Z/n[G]. Furthermore, working modulo squares with Galois groups which are 2-groups, we establish a theorem…
This paper explores analogies between the Weil proof of the Riemann hypothesis for function fields and the geometry of the adeles class space, which is the noncommutative space underlying Connes' spectral realization of the zeros of the…
We define abelian extensions of algebras in congruence-modular varieties. The theory is sufficiently general that it includes, in a natural way, extensions of R-modules for a ring R. We also define a cohomology theory, which we call clone…
We prove that for every positive integer $m$, there exist infinitely many simple abelian varieties over $\mathbb{F}_2$ of order $m$. The method is constructive, building on the work of Madan--Pal in the case $m=1$ to produce an explicit…
In this paper we study the \'etale cohomology groups associated to abelian varieties. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for an abelian variety to have semistable reduction (or purely additive reduction which becomes semistable…
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…
In a previous paper, we showed that all the cohomological invariants of Weyl groups are completely determined by their restrictions to the abelian subgroups generated by reflections. Using this principle, we describe all the cohomological…
This thesis intends to make a contribution to the theories of algebraic cycles and moduli spaces over the real numbers. In the study of the subvarieties of a projective algebraic variety, smooth over the field of real numbers, the cycle…
In this paper, we classify the possible group structures on the set of $R$-valued points of an abelian variety, where $R$ is any real closed field. We make use of a family of abelian varieties that, in effect, allows one to quantify over…
In this paper, we study a question of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene and Iyer concerning the existence of rational sections in families of homogeneous spaces over an abelian variety, after base change by a suitable \'etale isogeny of the abelian…
The results in this paper imply that for every number field F and positive integer r, there exists an F-isogeny class of abelian varieties such that r divides the degree of every F-polarization on every abelian variety in the isogeny class.
We investigate models of algebraic theories in the category of cocommutative coalgebras over a field. We establish some of their categorical properties, similar to those of algebraic varieties. We introduce a class of categories of…
The paper is a survey of some results about Weil algebras applicable in differential geometry, especially in some classification questions on bundles of generalized velocities and contact elements. Mainly, a number of claims concerning a…
We provide new, improved lower bounds for the Hodge and Frobenius colevels of algebraic varieties (over $\mathbf{C}$ or over a finite field) in all cohomological degrees. These bounds are expressed in terms of the dimension of the variety…
Recent papers by Markman and O'Grady give, besides their main results on the Hodge conjecture and on hyperkaehler varieties, surprising and explicit descriptions of families of abelian fourfolds of Weil type with trivial discriminant. They…
We call an abelian variety over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ super-isolated if its ($\mathbb{F}_q$-rational) isogeny class contains a single isomorphism class. In this paper, we use the Honda-Tate theorem to characterize super-isolated…
We present a research programme aimed at constructing classifying toposes of Weil-type cohomology theories and associated categories of motives, and introduce a number of notions and preliminary results already obtained in this direction.…
The modular class of a regular foliation is a cohomological obstruction to the existence of a volume form transverse to the leaves which is invariant under the flow of the vector fields of the foliation. By drawing on the relationship…
