• Author / Creator

  Jenan Shtayat

• Our main interest has to do with a conjecture of Nori, based on the weak Lefschetz theorem for Betti cohomology.We first prove Nori's conjecture under the assumption of the existence of a Bloch-Beilinson filtration.In the second part of my thesis, I re-prove a result of Paranjape on smooth general complete intersections, that supports Nori's conjecture.
