We resolve the Grothendieck-Serre question over an arbitrary base field $k$: for a smooth $k$-group scheme $G$ and a smooth $k$-variety $X$, we show that every generically trivial $G$-torsor over $X$ trivializes Zariski semilocally on $X$.…

Let k be a field, and let {\pi}:\tilde{X} -> X be a proper birational morphism of irreducible k-varieties, where \tilde{X} is smooth and X has at worst quotient singularities. When the characteristic of k is zero, a theorem of Koll\'ar in…

In this note we show that given a smooth affine variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ and an effective (possibly non reduced) Cartier divisor $D$ on it, the Kerz-Saito Chow group of zero cycles with modulus ${\rm CH}_0(X|D)$ is…

Let $K$ be a $C_1$-field of any characteristic and $X$ a projective variety over $K$. In this article we prove that for a finite Galois extension $L$ of $K$, a simple sheaf with covering datum on $X \times_K L$ descends to a simple sheaf on…

For a smooth subvariety $X\subset\Bbb P^N$, consider (analogously to projective normality) the vanishing condition $H^1(\Bbb P^N,\Cal I^2_X(k))=0$, $k\ge3$. This condition is shown to be satisfied for all sufficiently large embeddings of a…

For a reduced pure dimensional complex space $X$, we show that if Barlet's recently introduced sheaf $\alpha_X^1$ of holomorphic $1$-forms or the sheaf of germs of weakly holomorphic $1$-forms is locally free, then $X$ is smooth. Moreover,…

Let $A$ be a complex torus and $G$ a finite group acting on $A$ without translations such that $A/G$ is smooth. Consider the subgroup $F\leq G$ generated by elements that have at least one fixed point. We prove that there exists a point…

We prove that the homotopy algebraic K-theory of tame quasi-DM stacks satisfies cdh-descent. We apply this descent result to prove that if X is a Noetherian tame quasi-DM stack and i < -dim(X), then K_i(X)[1/n] = 0 (resp. K_i(X, Z/n) = 0)…

We show the kernel sheaf associated to a sufficiently positive torsion-free sheaf of rank 1 is slope stable. Furthermore, we are able to give an explicit bound for "sufficiently positive." This settles a conjecture of…

Let E be a rational elliptic curve of conductor N without complex multiplication and let K be an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant D prime to N. Assume that the number of primes dividing N and inert in K is odd, and let H be the…

Let $f: X \to S$ be flat morphism over an algebraically closed field $k$ with a relative normal crossings divisor $Y\subset X$, $(E, \nabla)$ be a bundle with a connection with log poles along $Y$ and curvature with values in…

We generalise Hinich's Theorem of descent of Deligne groupoids to the case where the dgLas involved have no negative cohomology. We apply this result to study the infinitesimal deformations of a morphism $\alpha: {\mathcal F} \to {\mathcal…

Let $X$ be a proper homogeneous space for a connected algebraic group $G$ over an algebraically closed field. For locally closed smooth affine subvarieties $W,Z\subset X$, we show that \[ (-1)^{\dim X-\dim W+\dim Z}\chi(gW\cap Z)\geq 0 \]…

We prove a theorem relating torus-equivariant coherent sheaves on toric varieties to polyhedrally-constructible sheaves on a vector space. At the level of K-theory, the theorem recovers Morelli's description of the K-theory of a smooth…

Let $R$ be a complete discrete valuation ring with fraction field of characteristic $0$ and algebraically closed residue field of characteristic $p>0$. Let $X_R \to \mathrm{Spec}(R)$ be a smooth projective morphism of relative dimension…

We show that the hypercohomology of most character twists of perverse sheaves on a complex abelian variety vanishes in all non-zero degrees. As a consequence we obtain a vanishing theorem for constructible sheaves and a relative vanishing…

It has long been known that a key ingredient for a sheaf representation of a universal algebra A consists in a distributive lattice of commuting congruences on A. The sheaf representations of universal algebras (over stably compact spaces)…

We propose and study a generalized version of the Lipman-Zariski conjecture: let $(x \in X)$ be an $n$-dimensional singularity such that for some integer $1 \le p \le n - 1$, the sheaf $\Omega_X^{[p]}$ of reflexive differential $p$-forms is…

We prove Bertini type theorems and give some applications of them. The applications are in the context of Lefschetz theorem for Nori fundamental group for normal varieties as well as for geometric formal orbifolds. In another application,…

In 1995, Koll\'ar conjectured that a smooth complex projective $n$-fold $X$ with generically large fundamental group has Euler characteristic $\chi(X, K_X)\geq 0$. In this paper, we prove the conjecture assuming $X$ has linear fundamental…
