Deligne: Hodge cycles on abelian varieties (Notes by J.S. Milne)

This is a TeXed copy of Hodge cycles on abelian varieties (the notes of most of the seminar "Periodes des Integrales Abeliennes" given by P. Deligne at I.H.E.S., 1978--79; pp9--100 of Deligne et al. 1982, LNM 900) somewhat revised and updated with the addition of endnotes.

"The summer institute gave us the idea that algebraic geometry was now a real subject, and no longer simply a mass of iffy results with a few valiant people like Zariski and Weil struggling to make order in this Augean Stable." (Mumford)
In the summer of 1964, the AMS held a conference on Algebraic Geometry at Woods Hole, and distributed the informal mimeographed proceedings of the conference to a select few. Despite their great historical importance, for example, this was where Tate first stated his conjectures on cycles and they contain the only written statement by Artin and Verdier of their duality theorem and the only written account by Serre and Tate of their lifting theorem, the AMS has ignored all requests to make the proceedings more widely available. Here (courtesy of Roy Smith), I've posted the complete notes. More...
