Abstract
We show that under some assumptions on the monodromy group some combinations of higher Chern classes of a flat vector bundle are torsion in the Chow group. Similar results hold for flat vector bundles that deform to such flat vector bundles (also in case of quasi-projective varieties). The results are motivated by Bloch’s conjecture on Chern classes of flat vector bundles on smooth complex projective varieties but in some cases they give a more precise information. We also study Higgs version of Bloch’s conjecture and analogous problems in the positive characteristic case.
