## Algebraic cycles on toric fibrations over abelian varieties.(English)Zbl 0956.14004

Let $$X$$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a finite field $$k$$. Beilinson has conjectured that the cycle class map cl$$:\text{CH}^i(X) \otimes_Z\mathbb{Q}_\ell \to H^{2i}_{et}(X\otimes_k\overline k,\mathbb{Q}_\ell (i))$$ is injective for any prime $$\ell$$ different from $$\text{char} k$$. Assuming this conjecture, Grothendieck’s standard conjecture and the Tate conjectures can be reformulated as follows.
Let $${\mathcal L}_X$$ be an ample invertible sheaf on $$X$$ and $$L$$ the associated Lefschetz operator. Then
(i) the Lefschetz operator induces an isomorphism $$L^{d-2p}:\text{CH}^p (X)_\mathbb{Q} @>\cong>> \text{CH}^{d-p} (X)_\mathbb{Q}$$, $$0\leq 2p\leq d=\dim X$$;
(ii) define by $$(\alpha,\beta)\mapsto(-1)^p\deg_X(\alpha.L^{d-2p}\beta)$$ CH$$^p(X)_\mathbb{Q}\times\text{CH}^p(x)_\mathbb{Q}\to\mathbb{Q}$$ asymmetric bilinear form. It is positive definite on the subspace of primitive elements;
(iii) the action of $$\Gamma_k =\text{Gal}(\overline k/k)$$ on $$H^i_{et}(X\otimes_k\overline k, \mathbb{Q}_\ell (j))$$ is semi-simple;
(iv) the cycle class map induces an isomorphism $$\text{CH}^i (X)\otimes_Z \mathbb{Q}_\ell @>\cong>> H^{2i}_{et} (X\otimes_k \overline k,\mathbb{Q}_\ell(i))^{\Gamma_k}$$.
In this paper the author proves these conjectures for the contraction product $$P=G\times^TZ$$, where $$G$$ is an extension of an abelian variety $$A$$ by an algebraic torus $$T$$ which is split over $$k$$ and $$Z$$ is a smooth projective toric variety $$T\subset Z$$, under the assumption $$\dim A\leq 2$$. The strategy of his proof is to deform $$P$$ into the product $$A\times Z$$ for which the proof becomes easy. The restriction on the dimension of $$A$$ comes from the fact that it relies on the validity of the case $$i=1$$ of the part (iv) due to Tate, and on the Hodge index theorem for surfaces due to Fulton.
