The intrinsic subgroup of an elliptic curve and Mazur's torsion theorem

We define and study a biadditive symmetric (not necessarily perfect) pairing on the torsion part $\mathrm{Pic}(X)_{\mathrm{tors}}$ of the Picard group of a smooth projective curve $X$ over a field $k$ with values in $k^\times \otimes \mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z}$. We call its kernel the intrinsic subgroup of $X$. It turns out that some information on the reduction type of $X$ can be read off from the intrinsic subgroup. Mazur's torsion theorem says that there are exactly 15 isomorphism classes of abelian groups that appear as the rational torsion points of an elliptic curve $X$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ (identified with $\mathrm{Pic}(X)_{\mathrm{tors}}$). We refine this result by determining which subgroups of those 15 groups appear as the intrinsic subgroups.

Motivic Gauss and Jacobi sums

We study the Gauss and Jacobi sums from a viewpoint of motives. We exhibit isomorphisms between Chow motives arising from the Artin-Schreier curve and the Fermat varieties over a finite field, that can be regarded as (and yield a new proof of) classically known relations among Gauss and Jacobi sums such as Davenport-Hasse's multiplication formula. As a key step, we define motivic analogues of the Gauss and Jacobi sums as algebraic correspondences, and show that they represent the Frobenius endomorphisms of such motives. This generalizes Coleman's result for curves. These results are applied to investigate the group of invertible Chow motives with coefficients in a cyclotomic field.

Torsion birational motives of surfaces and unramified cohomology

Let $S$ and $T$ be smooth projective varieties over an algebraically closed field. Suppose that $S$ is a surface admitting a decomposition of the diagonal. We show that, away from the characteristic of $k$, if an algebraic correspondence $T \to S$ acts trivially on the unramified cohomology, then it acts trivially on any normalized, birational, and motivic functor. This generalizes Kahn's result on the torsion order of $S$. We also exhibit an example of $S$ over $\mathbb{C}$ for which $S \times S$ violates the integral Hodge conjecture.

Invariants of Weyl group action and $q$-characters of quantum affine algebras

Let $W$ be the Weyl group corresponding to a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of rank $\ell$ and let $m>1$ be an integer. In [I21], by applying cluster mutations, a $W$-action on $\mathcal{Y}_m$ was constructed. Here $\mathcal{Y}_m$ is the rational function field on $cm\ell$ commuting variables, where $c \in \{ 1, 2, 3 \}$ depends on $\mathfrak{g}$. This was motivated by the $q$-character map $χ_q$ of the category of finite dimensional representations of quantum affine algebra $U_q(\hat{\mathfrak{g}})$. We showed in [I21] that when $q$ is a root of unity, $\mathrm{Im} χ_q$ is a subring of the $W$-invariant subfield $\mathcal{Y}_m^W$ of $\mathcal{Y}_m$. In this paper, we give more detailed study on $\mathcal{Y}_m^W$; for each reflection $r_i \in W$ associated to the $i$th simple root, we describe the $r_i$-invariant subfield $\mathcal{Y}_m^{r_i}$ of $\mathcal{Y}_m$.

Unramified logarithmic Hodge-Witt cohomology and $\mathbb{P}^1$-invariance

Let $X$ be a smooth proper variety over a field $k$ and suppose that the degree map $\mathrm{CH}_0(X \otimes_k K) \to \mathbb{Z}$ is isomorphic for any field extension $K/k$. We show that $G(\mathrm{Spec} k) \to G(X)$ is an isomorphism for any $\mathbb{P}^1$-invariant Nisnevich sheaf with transfers $G$. This generalize a result of Binda-Rülling-Saito that proves the same conclusion for reciprocity sheaves. We also give a direct proof of the fact that the unramified logarithmic Hodge-Witt cohomology is a $\mathbb{P}^1$-invariant Nisnevich sheaf with transfers.

Motives with modulus, III: The categories of motives

We construct and study a triangulated category of motives with modulus $\mathbf{MDM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ over a field $k$ that extends Voevodsky's category $\mathbf{DM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ in such a way as to encompass non-homotopy invariant phenomena. In a similar way as $\mathbf{DM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ is constructed out of smooth $k$-varieties, $\mathbf{MDM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ is constructed out of proper modulus pairs, introduced in Part I of this work. To such a modulus pair we associate its motive in $\mathbf{MDM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$. In some cases the $\mathrm{Hom}$ group in $\mathbf{MDM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ between the motives of two modulus pairs can be described in terms of Bloch's higher Chow groups.

Tensor structures in the theory of modulus presheaves with transfers

The tensor product of $\mathbb{A}^1$-invariant sheaves with transfers introduced by Voevodsky is generalized to reciprocity sheaves via the theory of modulus presheaves with transfers. We prove several general properties of this construction and compute it in some cases. In particular we obtain new (motivic) presentations of the absolute Kähler differentials and the first infinitesimal neighborhood of the diagonal.

Reciprocity sheaves, II

We exhibit an intimate relationship between "reciprocity sheaves" from arXiv:1402.4201 [math.AG] and "modulus sheaves with transfers" from arXiv:1908.02975 [math.AG] and arXiv:1910.14534 [math.AG].

Maximal abelian extension of $X_0(p)$ unramified outside cusps

Let $p$ be a prime number. Mazur proved that a geometrically maximal unramified abelian covering of $X_0(p)$ over $\mathbb Q$ is given by the Shimura covering $X_2(p) \to X_0(p)$, that is, a unique subcovering of $X_1(p) \to X_0(p)$ of degree $N_p := (p-1)/\gcd(p-1, 12)$. In this short paper, we show that a geometrically maximal abelian covering $X_2'(p) \to X_0(p)$ of $X_0(p)$ over $\mathbb Q$ unramified outside cusps is cyclic of degree $2N_p$. The main ingredient for the construction of $X_2'(p)$ is the generalized Dedelind eta functions.

Motives with modulus

We construct and study a triangulated category of motives with modulus $\mathbf{MDM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ over a field $k$ that extends Voevodsky's category $\mathbf{DM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ in such a way as to encompass non-homotopy invariant phenomena. In a similar way as $\mathbf{DM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ is constructed out of smooth $k$-varieties, $\mathbf{MDM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ is constructed out of \emph{proper modulus pairs}, that is, pairs of a proper $k$-variety $X$ and an effective divisor $D$ on $X$ such that $X \setminus |D|$ is smooth. To a modulus pair $(X, D)$ we associate its motive $M(X, D) \in \mathbf{MDM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$. In some cases the Hom group in $\mathbf{MDM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ between the motives of two modulus pairs can be described in terms of Bloch's higher Chow groups.

Generalized Jacobians of modular and Drinfeld modular curves

We consider the generalized Jacobian $\widetilde{J}$ of the modular curve $X_0(N)$ of level $N$ with respect to a reduced divisor consisting of all cusps. Supposing $N$ is square free, we explicitly determine the structure of the $\mathbb{Q}$-rational torsion points on $\widetilde{J}$ up to $6$-primary torsion. The result turns out to be very different from the case of prime power level previously studied by Yang and the second author. We also obtain an analogous result for Drinfeld modular curves. Our proof relies on similar results for classical Jacobians due to Ohta, Papikian and the first author. We also discuss the Hecke action on $\widetilde{J}$ and its Eisenstein property.

Mixed Hodge structures with modulus

We define a notion of mixed Hodge structure with modulus that generalizes the classical notion of mixed Hodge structure introduced by Deligne and the level one Hodge structures with additive parts introduced by Kato and Russell in their description of Albanese varieties with modulus. With modulus triples of any dimension we attach mixed Hodge structures with modulus. We combine this construction with an equivalence between the category of level one mixed Hodge structures with modulus and the category of Laumon $1$-motives to generalize Kato-Russell's Albanese varieties with modulus to $1$-motives.

Nori motives of curves with modulus and Laumon 1-motives

Let $k$ be a number field. We describe the category of Laumon 1-isomotives over $k$ as the universal category in the sense of Nori associated with a quiver representation built out of smooth proper $k$-curves with two disjoint effective divisors and a notion of $H^1_\dR$ for such "curves with modulus". This result extends and relies on the theorem of J. Ayoub and L. Barbieri-Viale that describes Deligne's category of 1-isomotives in terms of Nori's Abelian category of motives.

Rational torsion on the generalized Jacobian of a modular curve with cuspidal modulus

We consider the generalized Jacobian $\widetilde{J}_0(N)$ of a modular curve $X_0(N)$ with respect to a reduced divisor given by the sum of all cusps on it. When $N$ is a power of a prime $\geq 5$, we exhibit that the group of rational torsion points $\widetilde{J}_0(N)(\mathbb{Q})_{\mathrm{Tor}}$ tends to be much smaller than the classical Jacobian.

Reciprocity sheaves

We start developing a notion of reciprocity sheaves, generalizing Voevodsky's homotopy invariant presheaves with transfers which were used in the construction of his triangulated categories of motives. We hope reciprocity sheaves will eventually lead to the definition of a larger triangulated category of motivic nature, encompassing non homotopy invariant phenomena.
