Beilinson). This generalizes a result of L. Barbieri-Viale and V. Srinivas in the surface case. We then show that the Abel-Jacobi map for codimension 2 cycles and the Albanese map are bijective if a general hyperplane section is a surface for which Bloch's conjecture is proved. In certain cases we verify Nori's conjecture on the Griffiths group. We also prove a weak Lefschetz-type theorem for (higher) Chow groups, generalize a formula for the Abel-Jacobi map of higher cycles due to Beilinson and Levine to the smooth non proper case, and give a sufficient condition for the nonvanishing of the transcendental part of the image by the Abel-Jacobi map of a higher cycle on an elliptic surface, together with some examples.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v14", "updated": "2002-11-18T11:52:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14C30", "32S35" ], "keywords": [ "higher chow groups", "deligne cohomology", "blochs conjecture", "abel-jacobi map", "higher cycle" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 33, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "1999math.....10113S" } } }
