Courbes sur une variété abélienne
We study a deformation of the Kummer sequence to the radicial sequence over an -algebra, which is somewhat dual for the deformation of the Artin-Schreier sequence to the radicial sequence, studied by Saidi. We also discuss some relations between our sequences and the embedding of a finite flat commutative group scheme into a connected smooth affine commutative group schemes, constructed by Grothendieck.
We generalize Colliot-Thélène’s construction of flasque resolutions of reductive group schemes over a field to a broad class of base schemes.
