Lefschetz Motives and the Tate Conjecture
نویسنده
چکیده
A Lefschetz class on a smooth projective variety is an element of the Q-algebra generated by divisor classes. We show that it is possible to define Q-linear Tannakian categories of abelian motives using the Lefschetz classes as correspondences, and we compute the fundamental groups of the categories. As an application, we prove that the Hodge conjecture for complex abelian varieties of CM-type implies the Tate conjecture for all abelian varieties over finite fields, thereby reducing the latter to a problem in complex analysis.

Tate Conjecture and Mixed Perverse Sheaves
Using the theory of mixed perverse sheaves, we extend arguments on the Hodge conjecture initiated by Lefschetz and Griffiths to the case of the Tate conjecture, and show that the Tate conjecture for divisors is closely related to the de Rham conjecture for nonproper varieties, finiteness of the Tate-Shafarevich groups, and also to some conjectures in the analytic number theory. Dedicated to Joh...
متن کاملConstructing Elements in Shafarevich-tate Groups of Modular Motives
We study Shafarevich-Tate groups of motives attached to modular forms on Γ0(N) of weight bigger than 2. We deduce a criterion for the existence of nontrivial elements of these Shafarevich-Tate groups, and give 16 examples in which a strong form of the Beilinson-Bloch conjecture implies the existence of such elements. We also use modular symbols and observations about Tamagawa numbers to compute...
متن کاملOn the Local Tamagawa Number Conjecture for Tate Motives over Tamely Ramified Fields
The local Tamagawa number conjecture, which was first formulated by Fontaine and Perrin-Riou, expresses the compatibility of the (global) Tamagawa number conjecture on motivic L-functions with the functional equation. The local conjecture was proven for Tate motives over finite unramified extensions K/Qp by Bloch and Kato. We use the theory of (φ,Γ)-modules and a reciprocity law due to Cherbonn...
متن کاملMotives over Finite Fields
The category of motives over the algebraic closure of a finite field is known to be a semisimple Q-linear Tannakian category, but unless one assumes the Tate conjecture there is little further one can say about it. However, once this conjecture is assumed, it is possible to give an almost entirely satisfactory description of the category together with its standard fibre functors. In particular ...
متن کاملTowards Connectivity for Codimension 2 Cycles: Infinitesimal Deformations
Let X be a smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field k ⊂ C of characteristic zero, and Y ⊂ X a smooth complete intersection. The Weak Lefschetz theorem states that the natural restriction map H(X(C), Q) → H(Y (C), Q) on singular cohomology is an isomorphism for all i < dim(Y ). The Bloch-Beilinson conjectures on the existence of certain filtrations on Chow groups combined wit...
