Chow groups of products of Severi-Brauer varieties and invariants of degree 3 by Baek, Sanghoon is a scholarly article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Chow groups of products of Severi-Brauer varieties and invariants of degree 3 about?

We study the semi-decomposable invariants of a split semisimple group and their extension to a split reductive group by using the torsion in the codimension $2$ Chow groups of a product of Severi-Brauer varieties. In particular, for any $n\geq 2$ we completely determine the degree $3$ invariants of a split semisimple group, the quotient of $(\operatorname{\mathbf{SL}}_{2})^{n}$ by its maximal central subgroup, as well as of the corresponding split reductive group. We also provide an example illustrating that a modification of our method can be applied to find the semi-decomposable invariants of a split semisimple group of type A.
