Unexpected subgroup schemes of PGL_{2,k} in characteristic 2
Bianca Gouthier, Dajano Tossici
If the characteristic of a field is odd any infinitesimal group scheme of lifts to . In this paper, we prove that this is not true in characteristic a…
Special groups, versality and the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture
Zinovy Reichstein, Dajano Tossici
Let be a base field and be an algebraic group over . J.-P. Serre defined to be special if every -torsor is locally trivial in the Zariski topology for e…
Smooth affine group schemes over the dual numbers
Matthieu Romagny, Dajano Tossici
We provide an equivalence between the category of affine, smooth group schemes over the ring of generalized dual numbers , and the category of extensions of the form $1 \righ…
Essential dimension of infinitesimal unipotent group schemes
Dajano Tossici
We propose a generalization of Ledet conjecture, which predicts the essential dimension of cyclic -groups in characteristic , for finite commutative unipotent group schemes.…
Essential dimension of group schemes over a local scheme
Dajano Tossici
In this paper we develop the theory of essential dimension of group schemes over an integral base. Shortly we concentrate over a local base. As a consequence of our theory we give…
Sekiguchi-Suwa theory revisited
Ariane Mézard, Matthieu Romagny, Dajano Tossici
We present an account of the construction by S. Sekiguchi and N. Suwa of a cyclic isogeny of affine smooth group schemes unifying the Kummer and Artin-Schreier-Witt isogenies. We c…
