A Lefschetz Theorem for Crystalline Local SystemsOrganizer: Heng Du (YMSC) Speaker:Kang Zuo 左康 (Wuhan University)Time:Thur., 10:00–11:00 am, May 14, 2026Venue:Room A301, Jianhua BuildingAbstract:Carlos Simpson proved a strong Lefschetz theorem for complex polarized VHS via nonabelian Hodge theory. We give an arithmetic analogue using the p-adic nonabelian Hodge correspondence. This is joi...
Abstract:In this talk, I will discuss the motivic decomposition of a smooth hyperplane section in twisted Milnor Hypersurfaces. The key feature of our result is the appearance of a spectrum of a particular field in the decomposition. A critical ingredient is in the non-triviality of the (monodromy) Galois action on the equivariant Chow group. The steps of our proof can be likened to several th...
