Étale group schemes and specialization

If $A$ is an abelian variety over a finite field $\mathbf{F}_q$, then $A(\mathbf{F}_q)$ (resp. $A(\overline{\mathbf{F}}_q)$) is a finite (resp. infinite torsion) group, but $A(\mathbf{F}_q(t))$ is a ...

Discriminant ideal in a member of Barsotti-Tate Group

Let $S = \operatorname{Spec} R$ an affine scheme (in our case latter a complete dvr) and $p$ a prime. Then Barsotti-Tate group or $p$-divisible group $G$ of height $h$ over $S$ is an inductive system ...

Endomorphism rings of flat group schemes

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $X$ be a flat $R$-group scheme. We call $\text{End}_R(X)$ the ring of endomorphisms of the $R$-group scheme $X$, defined over $R$. Let $R\to S$ be a ring map ...

Structure of the variety of $n$-tuples of $m \times m$ matrices with zero product

Consider the functor sending a commutative ring $R$ to $\{(A_1,\dots,A_n) \in ( M_m(R) )^n | A_1 \dots A_n =0 \}$ which defines a scheme over $\mathbb Z$, let $X$ be its base change to $\mathbb C$. ...

Traces of Frobenius Endomorphism on Etale Cohomology and $G$-torsors

I have a smooth, projective, and rigid Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. Such spaces always have integral models. Let's assume we have an action on $X$ by a finite abelian group $G$...

Cokernel of map of étale sheaves

Let $p:\mathbb{G}_m\to \operatorname{Spec} k$ be the structure map, and let $T$ be an algebraic $k$-torus viewed as an étale sheaf over $k$. Why is the cokernel of the canonical map $T\to p_*p^*T$ ...
