Generically trivial torsors under constant groups

Alexis Bouthier, Kestutis Cesnavicius, Federico Scavia

We resolve the Grothendieck-Serre question over an arbitrary base field : for a smooth -group scheme and a smooth -variety , we show that every generically trivial…

The affine Grassmannian as a presheaf quotient

Kestutis Cesnavicius

For a reductive group over a ring , its affine Grassmannian plays important roles in a wide range of subjects and is typically defined as the étale sheafific…

Unramified Grothendieck-Serre for isotropic groups

Kestutis Cesnavicius, Roman Fedorov

The Grothendieck-Serre conjecture predicts that every generically trivial torsor under a reductive group over a regular semilocal ring is trivial. We establish this for unr…

The analytic topology suffices for the -Grassmannian

Kestutis Cesnavicius, Alex Youcis

The -affine Grassmannian was introduced by Scholze in the context of the geometric local Langlands program in mixed characteristic and is the Fargues-Fontaine cu…

Torsors on the complement of a smooth divisor

Kestutis Cesnavicius

We complete the proof of the Nisnevich conjecture in equal characteristic: for a smooth algebraic variety over a field , a -smooth divisor , and a reductive…

Problems about torsors over regular rings (with an appendix by Yifei Zhao)

Kestutis Cesnavicius

We overview a web of conjectures about torsors under reductive groups over regular rings and survey some techniques that have been used for making progress on such problems.

Reconstructing a variety from its topology (after Kollár, building on earlier work of Lieblich and Olsson)

Kestutis Cesnavicius

We survey a recent result of Kollár about reconstructing normal, geometrically integral, projective varieties of dimension in characteristic from their underlying Zaris…

Grothendieck-Serre in the quasi-split unramified case

Kestutis Cesnavicius

The Grothendieck--Serre conjecture predicts that every generically trivial torsor under a reductive group scheme over a regular local ring is trivial. We settle it in the c…

Purity for flat cohomology

Kestutis Cesnavicius, Peter Scholze

We establish the flat cohomology version of the Gabber-Thomason purity for étale cohomology: for a complete intersection Noetherian local ring and a commutative…

The Manin constant and the modular degree

Kestutis Cesnavicius, Michael Neururer, Abhishek Saha

The Manin constant of an elliptic curve over is the nonzero integer that scales the differential determined by the normalized newform associated to $…

Torsors on loop groups and the Hitchin fibration

Alexis Bouthier, Kestutis Cesnavicius

In his proof of the fundamental lemma, Ngô established the product formula for the Hitchin fibration over the anisotropic locus. One expects this formula over the larger genericall…

Macaulayfication of Noetherian schemes

Kestutis Cesnavicius

To reduce to resolving Cohen-Macaulay singularities, Faltings initiated the program of "Macaulayfying" a given Noetherian scheme . For a wide class of , Kawasaki built the so…

Grothendieck-Lefschetz for vector bundles

Kestutis Cesnavicius

According to the Grothendieck-Lefschetz theorem from SGA 2, there are no nontrivial line bundles on the punctured spectrum of a local ring that is a complete intersection…

Purity for the Brauer group

Kestutis Cesnavicius

A purity conjecture due to Grothendieck and Auslander--Goldman predicts that the Brauer group of a regular scheme does not change after removing a closed subscheme of codimension $…
