Abstract

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic \(p > 3\). Let A be an abelian surface over k. Fix an integer \(n \ge 1\) such that \(p \not \mid n\) and let \(K^{[n]}\) be the n-th generalized Kummer variety associated to A. In this article, we show that the S-fundamental group scheme and the Nori’s fundamental group scheme of \(K^{[n]}\) are trivial.
