Generalized Bloch conductor formula
Generalized Bloch conductor formula
Let ) be a complete discrete valuation ring with algebraically closed residue field , let , and let be a flat, generically smooth, regular -scheme of finite type whose singular locus is proper over . Write , let be the special fiber, and fix a prime number different from the residue characteristic. Let be the -adic complex of vanishing cycles. The notation denotes the Bloch intersection number, while and denote the Euler characteristic and Swan conductor, respectively.
Generalized Bloch conductor formula. If is an arithmetic -scheme with -proper singular locus , then
This generalizes Bloch's conductor formula from proper arithmetic schemes to arithmetic schemes whose singular locus is proper over the base. It relates an algebro-geometric intersection number to topological and arithmetic invariants of vanishing cycles; the supplied text does not state whether the conjecture is resolved.
