Topology of Conjugate Varieties
Abstract
Description
Serre and Abelson have produced examples of non-homeomorphic conjugate varieties. We show that if the field of definition of a polarized projective variety coincides with its field of moduli then all of its conjugates have the same topological type. This extends the class of varieties known to posses conjugacy invariant to canonically embedded varieties. We also show that normal complete interswections in homogeneous varieties have this property.
