The Tate conjecture for h^{2, 0} = 1 varieties over finite fields

We (Asvin G, Yifan Wei and John Yin) define a notion of splitting density for "nice" generically finite maps over p-adic fields and show that these densities satisfy a functional equation. As a consequence, we prove a conjecture about factorization probabilities of Bhargava, Cremona, Fisher, Gajovic. Zoom ID: 93014934562 Password: The order of A9 (the alternating group of 9 elements)
