Rational Isogenies of Prime Degree.
Let be a number field. Let be a finite set of places of containing all the archimedean ones. Let be the ring of -integers of . In the present paper we consider endomorphisms of of degree , defined over , with good reduction outside . We prove that there exist only finitely many such endomorphisms, up to conjugation by , admitting a periodic point in of order . Also, all but finitely many classes with a periodic point in of order are parametrized by an irreducible curve.
We derive a simple formula for the action of a finite crystallographic Coxeter group on the cohomology of its associated complex toric variety, using the method of counting rational points over finite fields, and the Hodge structure of the cohomology. Various applications are given, including the determination of the graded multiplicity of the reflection representation.
We study the Zariski closures of orbits of representations of quivers of type , ou . With the help of Lusztig’s canonical base, we characterize the rationally smooth orbit closures and prove in particular that orbit closures are smooth if and only if they are rationally smooth.
Let be a field of characteristic zero and G be a finite group of automorphisms of projective plane over . Castelnuovo’s criterion implies that the quotient of projective plane by G is rational if the field is algebraically closed. In this paper we prove that is rational for an arbitrary field of characteristic zero.
We study -actions of the form , where is the dual (to ) -variety. These actions are called the doubled ones. A geometric interpretation of the complexity of the action is given. It is shown that the doubled actions have a number of nice properties, if is spherical or of complexity one.
