Beschreibung
The contributions in this book explore various contexts in which the derived category of coherent sheaves on a variety determines some of its arithmetic. This setting provides new geometric tools for interpreting elements of the Brauer group. With a view towards future arithmetic applications, the book extends a number of powerful tools for analyzing rational points on elliptic curves, e.g., isogenies among curves, torsion points, modular curves, and the resulting descent techniques, as well as higher-dimensional varieties like K3 surfaces. Inspired by the rapid recent advances in our understanding of K3 surfaces, the book is intended to foster cross-pollination between the fields of complex algebraic geometry and number theory.

Offers a unique synthesis of techniques: tools from complex algebraic geometry are applied to fundamental questions in number theory and Diophantine geometry Investigates the connection between derived equivalences and existence of rational points on varieties, especially on K3 surfaces Includes a founding paper in the emerging theory of universal triviality of the Chow group of 0-cycles and its relationship to stable rationality problems
