Étale- or fppf-crystalline sites
I have a straightforward question. Let (say) $X/\mathbb{F}_p$ be a smooth proper scheme. On the big crystalline category over $\mathbb{Z}/p^n$ one can take the Zariski or étale topology, and one can ...

A relative Abel-Jacobi map on cycle classes
I have a question about relativizing a classical cohomological construction that I think should be easy for someone well versed in such manipulations.
Background:
Suppose $X$ is a smooth projective ...

Etale cohomology of relative elliptic curve
Let $E_a: y^2 = x(x-1)(x-a)$ be a smooth proper relative elliptic curve over $\text{Spec}(A)$, with $a\in A$, and assume $\text{Spec}(A)$ is a $\text{Spec}(\mathbb{Q}_p)$-scheme.
Let $R^1f_*\mathbb{Q}...

The degree map is a positive definite quadratic form
It is known that if $E_1$ and $E_2$ are elliptic curves over some field $K$ then the degree map $\deg: Hom(E_1,E_2) \to \mathbb Z$ is a positive definite quadratic form. A reference for this is III.6....

Reference for Iwahori-Hecke algebras
I recently came across the notion of an Iwahori-Hecke algebra. I would like to learn the basics about this type of algebras (mainly to get an intuition about them, as they seem to be related to some ...

Mumford's computation of the determinant of cohomology of a relative curve
In Integral Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem, Pappas mentions that Mumford computed the determinant of cohomology of $f:X\to S$ a relative curve integrally, and thus proved an integral version of GRR ...

Number of rational points over finite fields mod $q$ is birational invariant
I heard that if $\mathbf F_q$ is a finite field, $X, Y$ are birational smooth proper variety over $\mathbf F_q$, then $\#(X(\mathbf F_q)) \equiv \#(Y(\mathbf F_q)) \pmod q$, and I heard that the proof ...
