This is an English translation of the author's 1989 note in Russian, published in a collection "Arithmetic and Geometry of Varieties" (V.E. Voskresenski, ed.), Kuibyshev State University, Kuibyshev, 1989, pp. 57--67. Let $X$ be be an…

Suppose $X$ is a torsor under an abelian variety $A$ over a number field. We show that any adelic point of $X$ that is orthogonal to the algebraic Brauer group of $X$ is orthogonal to the whole Brauer group of $X$. We also show that if…

We present an algebra related to the Coxeter group of type F4 which can be viewed as the Brauer algebra of type F4 and is obtained as a subalgebra of the Brauer algebra of type E6. We also describe some properties of this algebra.

We compute the Brauer group of the moduli stack of elliptic curves over the integers, localizations of the integers, finite fields of odd characteristic, and algebraically closed fields of characteristic not $2$. The methods involved…

We prove that every element of order 2 in the Brauer group of a complex Kummer surface X descends to an Enriques quotient of X. In 'generic' cases this gives a bijection between the set Enr(X) of Enriques quotients of X up to isomorphism…

Given a magnetic finite group, we consider the similarity classes of magnetic equivariant central simple graded algebras over the complex numbers. We call this set the magnetic equivariant graded Brauer group and its structure as an abelian…

We study families of $K3$ surfaces obtained by double covering of the projective plane branching along curves of $(2,3)$-torus type. In the first part, we study the Picard lattices of the families, and a lattice duality of them. In the…

This paper investigates the homology of the Brauer algebras, interpreted as appropriate Tor-groups, and shows that it is closely related to the homology of the symmetric group. Our main results show that when the defining parameter of the…

With any hyper-K\"ahler variety $K$ of generalized Kummer type is associated via Hodge theory a K3 surface $S_K$. We show how they are related geometrically through a moduli space of sheaves on $S_K$. As a consequence, building…

For the case of algebraic curves - compact Riemann surfaces - it is shown that de Rham cohomology group $H^{1}_{\mathrm{dR}}(X,\mathbb{C})$ of a genus $g$ Riemann surface $X$ has a natural structure of a symplectic vector space. Every…

Let k be a field with char(k) not 2 or 3. Let C_f be the projective curve of a binary cubic form f, and k(C_f) the function field of C_f. In this paper we explicitly describe the relative Brauer group Br(k(C_f)/k) of k(C_f) over k. When f…

We show, that for a morphism of schemes from X to Y, that is a finite modification in finitely many closed points, a cohomological Brauer class on Y is represented by an Azumaya algebra if its pullback to X is represented by an Azumaya…

For an Azumaya algebra $A$ which is free over its centre $R$, we prove that the $K$-theory of $A$ is isomorphic to $K$-theory of $R$ up to its rank torsion. We observe that a graded central simple algebra, graded by an abelian group, is a…

We prove that the Chow motives of twisted derived equivalent K3 surfaces are isomorphic, not only as Chow motives (due to Huybrechts), but also as Frobenius algebra objects. Combined with a recent result of Huybrechts, we conclude that two…

Consider a graphed holomorphic surface $u=F(x,y)$ in $\mathbb{C}^3_{x,y,u}$ under the action of the affine transformation group $A(3)$. In 1999, Eastwood and Ezhov obtained a list of homogeneous models by determining possible tangential…

Let $X$ be a normal crossing compact complex surface with triple points. We prove that there exists a family of smoothings of $X$ when $X$ satisfies suitable conditions. Since our differential geometric proof also includes the case where…

We establish a 6-term left exact sequence, involving Galois cohomology of the base field $\mathbb K$, and the Brauer-Picard groupoid of a fusion category. This generalizes a result of Etingof, Nikshych, and Ostrik to the setting where…

We present an algorithm to compute the Brauer group of involution surface bundles over rational surfaces.

We obtain an easy sufficient condition for the Brauer group of a diagonal quartic surface D over Q to be algebraic. We also give an upper bound for the order of the quotient of the Brauer group of D by the image of the Brauer group of Q.…

We prove that for every reductive algebraic group $H$ with centre of positive dimension and every integer $K$ there is a smooth and projective variety $X$ and an algebraic $H$-torsor $P \to X$ such that the classifying map $X \to \Bclass H$…
