Chow group of a stack

In algebraic geometry, the Chow group of a stack is a generalization of the Chow group of a variety or scheme to stacks. For a quotient stack , the Chow group of X is the same as the G-equivariant Chow group of Y. A key difference from the theory of Chow groups of a variety is that a cycle is allowed to carry non-trivial automorphisms and consequently intersection-theoretic operations must take this into account. For example, the degree of a 0-cycle on a stack need not be an integer but is a rational number (due to non-trivial stabilizers). (Wikipedia).

José Ignacio Burgos Gil: Arithmetic intersection of Bloch higher cycles

The lecture was held within the framework of the Hausdorff Trimester Program: Periods in Number Theory, Algebraic Geometry and Physics. Abstract: We give a new definition of higher arithmetic Chow groups for smooth projective varieties defined over a number field, which is similar to Gill

Chow ring 1. Introduction.

This lecture gives an introductory overview of the Chow ring of a nonsingular variety. The idea is to define a ring structure related to subvarieties with the product corresponding to intersection. There are several complications that have to be solved, in particular how to define intersec

Definition of a group Lesson 24

In this video we take our first look at the definition of a group. It is basically a set of elements and the operation defined on them. If this set of elements and the operation defined on them obey the properties of closure and associativity, and if one of the elements is the identity el

Victoria Hoskins: ​On the motive of the stack of vector bundles on a curve

Abstract: Following Grothendieck’s vision that a motive of an algebraic variety should capture many of its cohomological invariants, Voevodsky introduced a triangulated category of motives which partially realises this idea. After describing some of the properties of this category, I expla

Product groups

Now that we have defined and understand quotient groups, we need to look at product groups. In this video I define the product of two groups as well as the group operation, proving that it is indeed a group.

Center of a group in abstract algebra

After the previous video where we saw that two of the elements in the dihedral group in six elements commute with all the elements in the group, we finally get to define the center of a group. The center of a group is a subgroup and in this video we also go through the proof to show this.
