Fundamental Groups and Path Lifting for Algebraic Varieties
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study 3 basic questions about fundamental groups of algebraic varieties. For a morphism, is being surjective on π1 preserved by base change? What the connection between openness in Zariski and Euclidean topologies? Which morphisms have path lifting property?

Artin groups, projective arrangements, and fundamental groups of smooth complex algebraic varieties
We prove that for any affine variety S defined over Q, there exists an Artin group G such that a Zariski open subset U of S is biregular isomorphic to a Zariski open subset U’ of the character variety X(G,P0(3)) = Hom(G,P0(3))//P0(3). The subset U contains all real points of 5’. As an application, we construct new examples of finitely-presented groups which are not fundamental groups of smooth ...
متن کاملRationally connected varieties and fundamental groups
On a rationally connected variety we would like to use rational curves to obtain a similar result. Complete intersection curves are essentially never rational. (For instance, if X ⊂ P is a hypersurface then a general complete intersection with hyperplanes is rational iff X is a hyperplane or a quadric.) Therefore we have to proceed in a quite different way. Let X be a smooth, projective, ration...
متن کاملRepresentations of Algebraic Groups and Principal Bundles on Algebraic Varieties
In this talk we discuss the relations between representations of algebraic groups and principal bundles on algebraic varieties, especially in characteristic p. We quickly review the notions of stable and semistable vector bundles and principal G-bundles , where G is any semisimple group. We define the notion of a low height representation in characteristic p and outline a proof of the theorem t...
متن کاملFundamental Groups of Rationally Connected Varieties
Let X be a smooth, projective, unirational variety and U ⊂ X an open set. The aim of this paper is to find a smooth rational curve C ⊂ X such that the fundamental group of C ∩ U surjects onto the fundamental group of U . Following the methods of [Kollár99] and [Colliot-Thélène00], a positive answer over C translates to a positive answer over any p-adic field. This gives a rather geometric proof...
متن کاملJordan Groups and Automorphism Groups of Algebraic Varieties
The first section of this paper is focused on Jordan groups in abstract setting, the second on that in the settings of automorphisms groups and groups of birational self-maps of algebraic varieties. The appendix contains formulations of some open problems and the relevant comments. MSC 2010: 20E07, 14E07
