Title: Torsion phenomena for zero-cycles on a product of curves over a number field
Abstract

For a smooth projective varietyXover an algebraic number fieldka conjecture of Bloch and Beilinson predicts that the kernel of the Albanese map ofXis a torsion group. In this article we consider a product$$X=C_1\times \cdots \times C_d$$X=C1××Cdof smooth projective curves and show that if the conjecture is true for any subproduct of two curves, then it is true forX. For a product$$X=C_1\times C_2$$X=C1×C2of two curves over$$\mathbb {Q} $$Qwith positive genus we construct many nontrivial examples that satisfy the weaker property that the image of the natural map$$J_1(\mathbb {Q})\otimes J_2(\mathbb {Q})\xrightarrow {\varepsilon }{{\,\textrm{CH}\,}}_0(C_1\times C_2)$$J1(Q)J2(Q)εCH0(C1×C2)is finite, where$$J_i$$Jiis the Jacobian variety of$$C_i$$Ci. Our constructions include many new examples of non-isogenous pairs of elliptic curves$$E_1, E_2$$E1,E2with positive rank, including the first known examples of rank greater than 1. Combining these constructions with our previous result, we obtain infinitely many nontrivial products$$X=C_1\times \cdots \times C_d$$X=C1××Cdfor which the analogous map$$\varepsilon $$εhas finite image.

  1. Abstract

    CSS-T codes were recently introduced as quantum error-correcting codes that respect a transversal gate. A CSS-T code depends on a CSS-T pair, which is a pair of binary codes$$(C_1, C_2)$$(C1,C2)such that$$C_1$$C1contains$$C_2$$C2,$$C_2$$C2is even, and the shortening of the dual of$$C_1$$C1with respect to the support of each codeword of$$C_2$$C2is self-dual. In this paper, we give new conditions to guarantee that a pair of binary codes$$(C_1, C_2)$$(C1,C2)is a CSS-T pair. We define the poset of CSS-T pairs and determine the minimal and maximal elements of the poset. We provide a propagation rule for nondegenerate CSS-T codes. We apply some main results to Reed–Muller, cyclic and extended cyclic codes. We characterize CSS-T pairs of cyclic codes in terms of the defining cyclotomic cosets. We find cyclic and extended cyclic codes to obtain quantum codes with better parameters than those in the literature.

    Let us fix a primepand a homogeneous system ofmlinear equations$$a_{j,1}x_1+\dots +a_{j,k}x_k=0$$aj,1x1++aj,kxk=0for$$j=1,\dots ,m$$j=1,,mwith coefficients$$a_{j,i}\in \mathbb {F}_p$$aj,iFp. Suppose that$$k\ge 3m$$k3m, that$$a_{j,1}+\dots +a_{j,k}=0$$aj,1++aj,k=0for$$j=1,\dots ,m$$j=1,,mand that every$$m\times m$$m×mminor of the$$m\times k$$m×kmatrix$$(a_{j,i})_{j,i}$$(aj,i)j,iis non-singular. Then we prove that for any (large)n, any subset$$A\subseteq \mathbb {F}_p^n$$AFpnof size$$|A|> C\cdot \Gamma ^n$$|A|>C·Γncontains a solution$$(x_1,\dots ,x_k)\in A^k$$(x1,,xk)Akto the given system of equations such that the vectors$$x_1,\dots ,x_k\in A$$x1,,xkAare all distinct. Here,Cand$$\Gamma $$Γare constants only depending onp,mandksuch that$$\Gamma Γ<p. The crucial point here is the condition for the vectors$$x_1,\dots ,x_k$$x1,,xkin the solution$$(x_1,\dots ,x_k)\in A^k$$(x1,,xk)Akto be distinct. If we relax this condition and only demand that$$x_1,\dots ,x_k$$x1,,xkare not all equal, then the statement would follow easily from Tao’s slice rank polynomial method. However, handling the distinctness condition is much harder, and requires a new approach. While all previous combinatorial applications of the slice rank polynomial method have relied on the slice rank of diagonal tensors, we use a slice rank argument for a non-diagonal tensor in combination with combinatorial and probabilistic arguments.

    Let$$X\rightarrow {{\mathbb {P}}}^1$$XP1be an elliptically fiberedK3 surface, admitting a sequence$$\omega _{i}$$ωiof Ricci-flat metrics collapsing the fibers. LetVbe a holomorphicSU(n) bundle overX, stable with respect to$$\omega _i$$ωi. Given the corresponding sequence$$\Xi _i$$Ξiof Hermitian–Yang–Mills connections onV, we prove that, ifEis a generic fiber, the restricted sequence$$\Xi _i|_{E}$$Ξi|Econverges to a flat connection$$A_0$$A0. Furthermore, if the restriction$$V|_E$$V|Eis of the form$$\oplus _{j=1}^n{\mathcal {O}}_E(q_j-0)$$j=1nOE(qj-0)forndistinct points$$q_j\in E$$qjE, then these points uniquely determine$$A_0$$A0.

    Let$$(h_I)$$(hI)denote the standard Haar system on [0, 1], indexed by$$I\in \mathcal {D}$$ID, the set of dyadic intervals and$$h_I\otimes h_J$$hIhJdenote the tensor product$$(s,t)\mapsto h_I(s) h_J(t)$$(s,t)hI(s)hJ(t),$$I,J\in \mathcal {D}$$I,JD. We consider a class of two-parameter function spaces which are completions of the linear span$$\mathcal {V}(\delta ^2)$$V(δ2)of$$h_I\otimes h_J$$hIhJ,$$I,J\in \mathcal {D}$$I,JD. This class contains all the spaces of the formX(Y), whereXandYare either the Lebesgue spaces$$L^p[0,1]$$Lp[0,1]or the Hardy spaces$$H^p[0,1]$$Hp[0,1],$$1\le p < \infty $$1p<. We say that$$D:X(Y)\rightarrow X(Y)$$D:X(Y)X(Y)is a Haar multiplier if$$D(h_I\otimes h_J) = d_{I,J} h_I\otimes h_J$$D(hIhJ)=dI,JhIhJ, where$$d_{I,J}\in \mathbb {R}$$dI,JR, and ask which more elementary operators factor throughD. A decisive role is played by theCapon projection$$\mathcal {C}:\mathcal {V}(\delta ^2)\rightarrow \mathcal {V}(\delta ^2)$$C:V(δ2)V(δ2)given by$$\mathcal {C} h_I\otimes h_J = h_I\otimes h_J$$ChIhJ=hIhJif$$|I|\le |J|$$|I||J|, and$$\mathcal {C} h_I\otimes h_J = 0$$ChIhJ=0if$$|I| > |J|$$|I|>|J|, as our main result highlights: Given any bounded Haar multiplier$$D:X(Y)\rightarrow X(Y)$$D:X(Y)X(Y), there exist$$\lambda ,\mu \in \mathbb {R}$$λ,μRsuch that$$\begin{aligned} \lambda \mathcal {C} + \mu ({{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-\mathcal {C})\text { approximately 1-projectionally factors through }D, \end{aligned}$$λC+μ(Id-C)approximately 1-projectionally factors throughD,i.e., for all$$\eta > 0$$η>0, there exist bounded operatorsABso thatABis the identity operator$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}$$Id,$$\Vert A\Vert \cdot \Vert B\Vert = 1$$A·B=1and$$\Vert \lambda \mathcal {C} + \mu ({{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-\mathcal {C}) - ADB\Vert < \eta $$λC+μ(Id-C)-ADB<η. Additionally, if$$\mathcal {C}$$Cis unbounded onX(Y), then$$\lambda = \mu $$λ=μand then$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}$$Ideither factors throughDor$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-D$$Id-D.
