An old conjecture of Voisin describes how zero-cycles on a variety $X$ should behave when pulled-back to the self-product $X^m$ for $m$ larger than the geometric genus of $X$. Using complete intersections of quadrics, we give examples of…
A variety is rationally connected if two general points can be joined by a rational curve. A higher version of this notion is rational simple connectedness, which requires suitable spaces of rational curves through two points to be…
For a smooth projective variety X over an arbitrary field k, we discuss the surjectivity of the Albanese map from the Chow group of zero-cycles of degree zero on X to the group of rational points of the Albanese variety of X. Over…
We study weak approximation for Ch\^{a}telet surfaces over number fields when all singular fibers are defined over rational points. We consider Ch\^{a}telet surfaces which satisfy weak approximation over every finite extension of the ground…
Let F be a finite field of characteristic p. We consider smooth surfaces over F(t) defined by an equation f+tg=0, where f and g are forms of degree d in 4 variables with coefficients in F, with d prime to p. We prove : For such surfaces…
This article introduces and studies the tight approximation property, a property of algebraic varieties defined over the function field of a complex or real curve that refines the weak approximation property (and the known cohomological…
Voevodsky has conjectured that numerical and smash equivalence coincide on a smooth projective variety. We prove the conjecture for one dimensional cycles on an arbitrary product of curves. As a consequence we get that numerically trivial…
We wish to give a short elementary proof of S. Saito's result that the Brauer-Manin obstruction for zero-cycles of degree 1 is the only one for curves, supposing the finiteness of the Tate-Shafarevich-group $\sha^1(A)$ of the Jacobian…
Let $K=k(C)$ be the function field of a curve over a field $k$ and let $X$ be a smooth, projective, separably rationally connected $K$-variety with $X(K)\neq\emptyset$. Under the assumption that $X$ admits a smooth projective model $\pi:…
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 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…
If a linear combination of k smooth vector fields is zero at a point, then, generically, near this point there are small cycles comprised of segments from the flow of each vector field. This answers a question posed in arXiv:math/0504365.
We prove weak approximation for isotrivial families of rationally connected varieties defined over the function field of a smooth projective complex curve.
Let r > 0 be an integer. We present a sufficient condition for an abelian variety A over a number field k to have infinitely many quadratic twists of rank at least r, in terms of density properties of rational points on the Kummer variety…
Classical descent theory of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene and Sansuc for rational points tells that, over a smooth variety $X$, the algebraic Brauer--Manin subset equals the descent obstruction subset defined by a universal torsor. Moreover, Harari…
We prove Bloch's conjecture for correspondences on powers of complex abelian varieties, that are "generically defined". As an application we establish vanishing results for (skew-)symmetric cycles on powers of abelian varieties and we…
In this paper we investigate the $\mathbb{Q}$-rational points of a class of simply connected Calabi-Yau threefolds, which were originally studied by Hosono and Takagi in the context of mirror symmetry. These varieties are defined as a…
In this article, we establish the arithmetic purity of strong approximation for smooth loci of weighted projective spaces. By using this result and the descent method, we also prove that the arithmetic purity of strong approximation with…
In this paper, we construct three kinds of Ch\^atelet surfaces, which have some given arithmetic properties with respect to field extensions of number fields. We then use these constructions to study the properties of weak approximation…
Motivated by the Bloch-Beilinson conjectures, Voisin has made a conjecture concerning zero-cycles on self-products of Calabi-Yau varieties. We reformulate Voisin's conjecture in the setting of hyperk\"ahler varieties, and we prove this…
