Abstract.
In this talk, I will recall
a few geometric results -
non-uniruledness and Bogomolov-Beauville decomposition - concerning
varieties with trivial canonical class in
characteristic zero contrasting them with characteristic p>0
counterexamples. I will then explain how to salvage some part of the
characteristic p>0 theory using the arithmetic assumption of ordinarity.
The talk is based on the joint work in progress with Zsolt Patakfalvi.
