On formal groups obtained from symmetric powers
In this paper we study the existence problem for products in the categories of quasi-projective and algebraic varieties and also in the category of algebraic spaces.
Galois extensions with various metacyclic Galois groups are constructed by means of a Kummer theory arising from an isogeny of certain algebraic tori. In particular, our method enables us to construct algebraic tori parameterizing metacyclic extensions.
In this paper we study certain moduli spaces of Barsotti-Tate groups constructed by Rapoport and Zink as local analogues of Shimura varieties. More precisely, given an isogeny class of Barsotti-Tate groups with unramified additional structures, we investigate how the associated (non-basic) moduli spaces compare to the (basic) moduli spaces associated with its isoclinic constituents. This aspect of the geometry of the Rapoport-Zink spaces is closely related to Kottwitz’s prediction that their -adic...
Let X be an affine toric variety. The total coordinates on X provide a canonical presentation of X as a quotient of a vector space by a linear action of a quasitorus. We prove that the orbits of the connected component of the automorphism group Aut(X) on X coincide with the Luna strata defined by the canonical quotient presentation.
We consider a smooth projective variety on which a simple algebraic group acts with an open orbit. We discuss a theorem of Brion-Luna-Vust in order to relate the action of with the induced action of on the normal bundle of a closed orbit of the action. We get effective results in case and .
Let be the ring of integers of a totally real field of degree . We study the reduction of the moduli space of separably polarized abelian -varieties of dimension modulo for a fixed prime . The invariants and related conditions for the objects in the moduli space are discussed. We construct a scheme-theoretic stratification by -types on the Rapoport locus and study the relation with the slope stratification. In particular, we recover the main results of Goren and Oort [J. Alg. Geom.,...
We prove that for algebras obtained by tilts from the path algebras of equioriented Dynkin diagrams of type Aₙ, the rings of semi-invariants are polynomial.
