Number field analog of Artin-Tate $\Rightarrow$ BSD?
What is the difference between the alternating product of the Hasse-Weil $L$-functions of the generic fiber of an arithmetic scheme $X\to\text{Spec}(\mathbf{Z})$ and the zeta function of $X$? (each ...

Linear algebra of elliptic curves over p-adic fields
Unfortunately, the following question is somewhat ill-posed. However, I hope to make what I'm looking for sufficiently clear.
Given two elliptic curves (or Abelian varieties) over $\mathbb{C}$, one ...

How are the hypergeometric motives of WZ-Pairs connected?
If $\small{(F,G)}$ is a WZ-pair and general asymptotic conditions $\lim_{k\rightarrow\infty}\small{G(n,k)=0}$ and $\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}\small{F(n,k)=0}$ hold, then we have the certified ...

What is the precise definition of "Hypergeometric motives over $\mathbb{Q}$"?
The question is as in the title, but here is some background:
Section 4 of this paper by Beukers, Cohen and Mellit is called "Hypergeometric motive over $\mathbb{Q}$" but no actual (pure) ...

Geometric vs combinatorial motives over Spec Z
Consider the category of reduced schemes of finite type over $\mathbb{Z}$. Take the Grothendieck group of this category, i.e. the free abelian group on isomorphism classes, modulo the usual "syzygy" ...

Searching for hypergeometric motives that split
Motivation: It seems that the splitting of a hypergeometric motive is closely related to some highly non-trivial hypergeometric identities discovered by Ramanujan, Guillera et al. The splitting of ...

A Generalization of the Tate-Shafarevich/Tate/Fontaine-Mazur Conjectures
Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a number field $k$. The Tate-Shafarevich conjecture says that the Tate-Shafarevich group of $A$ is finite.
A weakening of this conjecture states that the $\ell$-...

Quadratic twists of 1-motives
Quadratic twists of elliptic curves (or, more generally, abelian varieties) are familiar objects in arithmetic geometry. I would like to extend that definition to the category of 1-motives over global ...

Motivic $L$-functions came from automorphic representations
Langlands in his 1978 ICM talk made a conjecture that all motivic $L$-functions should arise as automorphic $L$-functions. A part of this conjecture, namely for some Hasse-Weil $\zeta$ functions is a ...

Motivic Galois group and Shimura varieties
Hi,
Suppose that one has a Shimura variety $Sh(G,X)$ where $(G,X)$ is the corresponding Shimura datum and suppose that it can be interpreted as a moduli space of motives (e.g. PEL type Shimura ...

Derived weight filtration on motivic Galois representations
Thanks to modern techniques (such as the pro-etale site), we can now understand etale (co)homology of varieties and motives as "genuinely" derived (e.g. DG) Galois-equivariant objects. I'm looking for ...

A Galois equivariant Weil cohomology theory with coefficients in the rational numbers and a variation of the Tate/Hodge conjecture
A well-known example of Serre shows that there can be no Weil cohomology theory with $\mathbb Q$ coefficients for schemes over $\mathbb F_{p^2}$. However, this example is no obstruction to a Weil ...
