Is it always true that the complement of an ample divisor is affine?

Consider a proper and integral scheme $X\rightarrow\operatorname{Spec}(A)$ over a Noetherian ring $A$ and $D\in\operatorname{Div}(X)$ an effective ample Cartier divisor on $X$. Is it true that its ...

A relative cycle class map

Suppose I have a smooth projective morphism $p: X \to S$ between varieties, and a relative cycle $Z \subset X \to S$ which is assumed to be as nice as can be (rquidimensional with fibers of dimension $...

"General position" on $\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1$

On $\mathbb{P}^2$ we have the notion of general positions: no 3 points on a line, no 6 on a conic, etc. In particular, blowing up points (up to 8) in general positions give ample anti-canonical class, ...

A Brauer group of a double covering of a "well-understood" variety

Let $k$ be a field (it is possible to assume that $k = \mathbb{Q}$ or $= \overline{\mathbb{Q}}$) and $X, Y$ nice varieties over $k$. Let $f \colon Y \to X$ be a finite flat surjective morphism of ...

Computing basis of $\mathrm{Pic}(\bar{X})$ for a Del Pezzo surface

Say we are given a degree 2 del Pezzo $X$ given by $w^2=Q(x,y,z)$ where $Q(x,y,z)$ is degree 4. We can compute the exceptional lines by computing the 28 bitangent lines of $Q$ and look at the ...

Using the Dold-Thom Theorem to define \'etale cohomology

For reasonable spaces $X$, the Dold-Thom Theorem states that $\pi_i(SP(X)) \cong \tilde{H}_i(X)$ where $SP(X) = \bigsqcup_i \mathrm{Sym}^i(X)$. There is a purely algebro-geometric realization of this ...

Simplicity of abelian varieties and localization

Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$. Let $v$ be a place of $K$ and denote by $K_v$ the $v$-adic completion of $K$ with respect to $||\cdot||_v$. Assume $A$ is simple, is it ...

Formal étaleness along Henselian thickenings

Assume that $f:X\to Y$ is an étale map between smooth varieties and $(S,I)$ is a Henselian pair. Let $\alpha\in X(S/I)$. Can we say that the lifts of $\alpha$ to $X(S)$ are in bijection with the lifts ...

Is there an elliptic curve analogue to the 4-term exact sequence defining the unit and class group of a number field?

Let $K$ be a number field. One has the following exact sequence relating the unit group and ideal class group $\text{cl}(K)$: $$1\to \mathcal{O}_K^\times\to K^\times \to J_K\to \text{cl}(K)\to 1$$ ...
