Étale cohomology and reduction of abelian varieties

A. Silverberg, Yu. G. Zarhin (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

In this paper we study the étale cohomology groups associated to abelian varieties. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for an abelian variety to have semistable reduction (or purely additive reduction which becomes semistable over a quadratic extension) in terms of the action of the absolute inertia group on the étale cohomology groups with finite coefficients.

Euler characteristics of moduli spaces of curves

Gilberto Bini, John Harer (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Let M g n be the moduli space of n -pointed Riemann surfaces of genus g . Denote by M g n ¯ the Deligne-Mumford compactification of M g n . In the present paper, we calculate the orbifold and the ordinary Euler characteristic of M g n ¯ for any g and n such that n > 2 - 2 g .

Exceptional collections on isotropic Grassmannians

Alexander Kuznetsov, Alexander Polishchuk (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We introduce a new construction of exceptional objects in the derived category of coherent sheaves on a compact homogeneous space of a semisimple algebraic group and show that it produces exceptional collections of the length equal to the rank of the Grothendieck group on homogeneous spaces of all classical groups.
