Chow groups of some generically twisted flag varieties

Nikita A. Karpenko

Vol. 2 (2017), No. 2, 341–356
Abstract

We classify the split simple affine algebraic groups G of types A and C over a field with the property that the Chow group of the quotient variety EP is torsion-free, where P G is a special parabolic subgroup (e.g., a Borel subgroup) and E is a generic G-torsor (over a field extension of the base field). Examples of G include the adjoint groups of type A. Examples of EP include the Severi–Brauer varieties of generic central simple algebras.
