Using recent developments in the theory of mixed motives, we prove that the log Bloch conjecture holds for an open smooth complex surface if the Bloch conjecture holds for its compactification. This verifies the log Bloch conjecture for all…

The aim of this article is to prove Bloch's conjecture (asserting that the group of rational equivalence classes of zero cycles of degree zero is trivial) for Inoue surfaces with p_g=0 and K^2 = 7. These surfaces can also be described as…

Let $X$ be a non-singular projective complex surface. We can show that Bloch's conjecture (i.e., that if $p_g=0$ then the Albanese kernel vanishes) is equivalent to the following statement: If $p_g(X)=0$ then for any given Zariski open…

In this short note we prove that the Bloch's conjecture holds for a surface of general type of numerical Godeaux type or some class of numerical Campedelli type, with geometric genus zero equipped with an involution, when the quotient of…

We propose a "Bloch type" conjecture for surfaces: if the cup product map in coherent cohomology is zero, then all intersections of homologically trivial divisors should be zero in the Chow group of zero-cycles. We prove this conjecture for…

In this short note we prove that an involution on certain examples of surfaces of general type with $p_g=0=q, K^2=3$, acts as identity on the Chow group of zero cycles of the relevant surface. In particular we consider examples of such…

Bloch's conjecture for a surface $X$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ states that every homologically trivial correspondence $\Gamma $ acts as 0 on the Albanese kernel $T(X_{\Omega})$, where $\Omega $ is a universal domain containing…

Let $S$ be a smooth projective surface with $p_g=0$, let $\iota $ be a regular involution acting on $S$, and let $W$ be the resolution of singularities of the quotient surface $S/\iota $. In the paper we prove that Bloch's conjecture holds…

In this short note we prove that an involution on certain examples of surfaces of general type with $p_g=0$, acts as identity on the Chow group of zero cycles of the relevant surface. In particular we consider examples of such surfaces when…

In this paper, we prove that Bloch's conjecture holds for all smooth, complex, projective surfaces with $p_g=q=0$ and $K^2=9$.

Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective variety with trivial Chow groups. (By trivial, we mean that the cycle class is injective.) We show (assuming the Lefschetz standard conjecture) that if the vanishing cohomology of a general complete…

We prove the conjecture stated by Spencer Bloch in 1975 and saying that the Albanese kernel of a smooth projective surface is 0, provided its second cohomology group is algebraic.

We express the kernel of Griffiths' Abel-Jacobi map by using the inductive limit of Deligne cohomology in the generalized sense (i.e. the absolute Hodge cohomology of A. Beilinson). This generalizes a result of L. Barbieri-Viale and V.…

We prove an unconditional (but slightly weakened) version of the main result of our earlier paper with the same title, which was, starting from dimension $4$, conditional to the Lefschetz standard conjecture. Let $X$ be a variety with…

We give many examples of surfaces of general type with $p_g=0$ for which Bloch's conjecture holds, for all values of $K^2$ except 9. Our surfaces are equipped with an involution.

The aim of this article is to prove Bloch's conjecture, asserting that the group of rational equivalence classes of zero cycles of degree 0 is trivial for surfaces with geometric genus zero, for regular generalized Burniat type surfaces.…

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…

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 generalize Bloch's map on torsion cycles from algebraically closed fields to arbitrary fields. While Bloch's map over algebraically closed fields is injective for zero-cycles and for cycles of codimension at most two, we show that the…

Catanese surfaces are regular surfaces of general type with $p_g=0$. They specialize to double covers of Barlow surfaces. We prove that the $CH_0$ group of a Catanese surface is equal to $\mathbb{Z}$, which implies the same result for the…
