Borel-Weil-Bott theorem for wonderful compactification in characteristic p

Are there any known results for a Borel-Weil-Bott theorem for the wonderful compactifications over characteristic $p$ (i.e., theorems that classify the cohomologies of all line bundles on a wonderful ...

Cohomologies of $[V/GL_n]$ in characteristic $p$ for a representation $V$ of $GL_n$

Let $V$ be a representation of $G=GL_n$ (or more generally any reductive group $G$) over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb k$ of characteristic $p$. Let $[V/G]$ be the corresponding quotient ...

finitness of syntomic/fppf cohomology with coefficients in a finite flat group scheme

Let $X/k$ be a smooth projective variety over a finite field of characteristic $p$ and $\mathscr{A}/X$ be an Abelian scheme. Is then $H^1_\mathrm{SYN}(X,\mathscr{A}[p]) = H^1_\mathrm{fppf}(X,\mathscr{...

Finiteness of cohomology with finite coefficients

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and let $S$ be a variety over $\mathbb{F}_p$. It is natural (I think) to expect that the cohomology group $H^i(S,G)$ is finite. But with respect to which cohomology? ...

Vanishing theorems that work in positive characteristic

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over a field of characteristic $p>0$ of dimension at least $2$. I am looking for some examples when $H^2(\mathcal{O}_X)$ vanishes. Is there any standard way ...

Lifting varieties to characteristic zero.

If you want to compute crystalline cohomology of a smooth proper variety $X$ over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p$, the first thing you might want to try is to lift $X$ to the Witt ring $W_k$ ...
