We study zero-cycles in families of rationally connected varieties. We show that for a smooth projective scheme over a henselian discrete valuation ring the restriction of relative zero cycles to the special fiber induces an isomorphism on…
We study the restriction map to the closed fiber of a regular projective scheme over an excellent henselian discrete valuation ring, for a cohomological version of the Chow group of relative zero-cycles. Our main result extends the work of…
We present a relation between the classical Chow group of relative $0$-cycles on a regular scheme $\mathcal{X}$, projective and flat over an excellent Henselian discrete valuation ring, and the Levine-Weibel Chow group of 0-cycles on the…
Let $k$ be a field of arbitrary characteristic. Let $S$ be a singular surface defined over $k$ with multiple rational curve singularities and suppose that the Chow group of zero cycles of its normalisation $\tilde{S}$ is finite dimensional.…
We study the deformations of the Chow group of zero-cycles of the special fibre of a smooth scheme over a henselian discrete valuation ring. Our main tools are Bloch's formula and differential forms. As a corollary we get an algebraization…
This is a survey of recent examples of varieties that are not stably rational. We review the specialization method based on properties of the Chow group of zero-cycles used in these examples and explain the point of view of unramified…
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…
We study the Chow group of zero-cycles of smooth projective varieties over local and strictly local fields. We prove in particular the injectivity of the cycle class map to integral l-adic cohomology for a large class of surfaces with…
Let $k$ be the function field of a complex curve or the field $C((t))$. We show that for a smooth complete intersection $X$ of $r$ hypersurfaces in $P^n_k$ of respective degrees $d_1,...,d_r$ with $\sum d_i^2\leq n+1$ the R-equivalence on…
We show the surjectivity of a specialisation map on higher $(0,1)$-cycles for a smooth projective scheme over an excellent henselian discrete valuation ring. This gives evidence for a conjecture stated in an article of Kerz, Esnault and…
The Chow rings of hyperK\"ahler varieties are conjectured to have a particularly rich structure. In this paper, we focus on the locally complete family of double EPW sextics and establish some properties of their Chow rings. First we prove…
In this paper we prove a finiteness result concerning the Chow group of zero-cycles for varieties over $p$-adic local fields. In this final version, there are several corrections concerning mathematical symbols and reference to related…
In this paper we study properties of the Chow ring of rational homogeneous varieties of classical type, more concretely, effective zero divisors of low codimension, and a related invariant called effective good divisibility. This…
A general specialization map is constructed for higher Chow groups and used to prove a "going-up" theorem for algebraic cycles and their regulators. The results are applied to study the degeneration of the modified diagonal cycle of Gross…
We show that the Chow group of 0-cycles on a singular projective scheme $X$ over a finite field describes the abelian extensions of its function field which are unramified over the regular locus of $X$. As a consequence, we obtain the…
Inspired by the recent works of M. Kontsevich--Y. Tschinkel and J. Nicaise--J. C. Ottem on specialization of birational types for smooth families (in the scheme category) and J. Koll{\'a}r's work on fiberwise bimeromorphism, we focus on…
For a proper, flat, generically smooth scheme $X$ over a complete DVR with finite residue field of characteristic $p$, we define a specialization morphism from the rigid cohomology of the geometric special fibre to $D_{crys}$ of the…
Given a smooth surface $X$ over a field and an effective Cartier divisor $D$, we provide an exact sequence connecting $CH_0(X,D)$ and the relative $K$-group $K_0(X,D)$. We use this exact sequence to answer a question of Kerz and Saito…
We consider a family of quintic threefolds specializing to a certain reducible threefold. We describe the space of genus zero stable morphisms to the central fiber (as defined by J. Li). As an elementary application of an extension of the…
This note is about a $16$-dimensional family of surfaces of general type with $p_g=2$ and $q=0$ and $K^2=1$, called "special Horikawa surfaces". These surfaces, studied by Pearlstein-Zhang and by Garbagnati, are related to K3 surfaces. We…
