Is the group of homologically trivial cycles in a variety over a finite field torsion?

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Is any cycle in the Chow group $CH^i(X)$ which is trivial in $\ell$-adic cohomology automatically torsion? For abelian varieties I believe ...

Multiplicity and the perfect projective line

Let $\mathbf{F}_p$ be the field with $p$ elements, and $X = (\mathbf{P}^1_{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_p})^\text{perf}$ the inverse perfection of the projective line over $\mathbf{F}_p$. Let $\Gamma$ be the ...

Self-intersection of the diagonal on a surface

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over the complex numbers, and take $\Delta$ the diagonal divisor on $X\times X$. Using the adjunction formula, one computes $\Delta\cdot\Delta =2-2g$ for $g$ the ...

Vector bundles on henselian schemes

Let $X$ be a smooth and projective scheme over $\mathbf{Z}_p$. We call $\mathfrak{X}$ the ringed space whose topological space is the topological space of the special fiber of $X$, and whose ...

Pairing on arithmetic surfaces

Let $f: X \to S$ be an arithmetic surface, where $S=\operatorname{Spec } O_K$ for a number field $K$. It is well known that if we want to introduce a reasonable intersection theory on $X$ we have to ...

Twisted sheaves on tower of $\mathbb{P}^n$

Take the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ over a ring $W$. We call $\mathcal{O}(q)$ the usual twisted line bundle. Now take the map $f: \mathbb{P}^n\to\mathbb{P}^n$ defined by $$[x_0,\ldots, x_n]\...

Non algebraizable formal abelian schemes

I'd like to collect a good number of examples of formal schemes over $\text{Spf}(\mathbf{Z}_p)$, whose special fiber is a projective variety over $\mathbf{F}_p$, but that are not algebraizable. If ...

Hard Lefschetz for cycles

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over a field $k$. It is known by work of Deligne, that the Lefschetz operator: $$ L^k:H^{2n-2k}\left(X_{\overline{k}},\mathbf{Q}_{\ell}\right)\to H^{2n+2k}\left(...
