Extensions Of Unirational Groups
Zev Rosengarten
We undertake a study of extensions of unirational algebraic groups. We prove that extensions of unirational groups are also unirational over fields of degree of imperfection , b…
Algebraic Groups with Torsors That Are Versal for All Affine Varieties
Uriya A. First, Mathieu Florence, Zev Rosengarten
Let be a field and let be an affine algebraic group over . Call a -torsor weakly versal for a class of -schemes if it specializes to every -torsor over…
Splitting p-primary cohomology classes of tori in characteristic p
Zev Rosengarten
We prove that -primary cohomology classes of a torus over a global function field of characteristic may be split by suitable separable -primary extensions. More preci…
Rigidity And Unirational Groups
Zev Rosengarten
We prove a rigidity theorem for morphisms from products of open subschemes of the projective line into solvable groups not containing a copy of $\Ga$ (for example, wound unipotent…
Permawound Unipotent Groups
Zev Rosengarten
We introduce the class of permawound unipotent groups, and show that they simultaneously satisfy certain "ubiquity" and "rigidity" properties that in combination render them very u…
Extensions of Abelian Schemes and the Additive Group
Gabriel Ribeiro, Zev Rosengarten
We compute extension sheaves of abelian schemes and of the additive group by the multiplicative group in the fppf topology. Our main results include a generalized and streamlined p…
