In this paper, we examine a theorem of Mumford, based on a technique of Severi, on the role of regular 2-forms in determining the "size" of the Chow group of 0-cycles on a smooth, complex, projective algebraic surface (cf [6]). L et X b e a smooth, complex projective algebraic variety of dim ension n, CH k (X) = C H (X ) = Chow group of algebraic cycles of dimension k (codim n — k) modulo rational equivalence, a n d Ak ( X ) = Iv E CHk (X)11) is algebraically equivalent to zero}. O n rational cohomology (of X) there is equipped an arithmetic filtration, fo r w h ich to quo te i n [2 ], " . . . embodies deep arithmetic properties of [the scheme] X " . O ur purpose is to apply Mumford's theorem to exhibit a connection between graded pieces o f th is filtration and the "size" of A 5 (X ) for k > O. According to the statement of the main theorem below, when k = 0, we arrive at the conclusion of Mumford's theorem for the case n = 2, and Roitman's generalization (see [8 ]) fo r n > 2, namely h ' ° (X) 0 0 fo r som e p > 2 implies A 0 (X) "infinite dimensional". We begin with the setting of this paper by recalling two filtrations (see also [2]). Fak (i)=Gysin images of Hi 2 4 (Y, Q) in H i (X, Q), where Y = desingularization o f T a n d w here T c X i s a subvariety o f codimension q > k; ( i ) = largest subHodge structure in {F i-I i (X, C)} fl 16X , Q ). There is the well known inclusion Fa (i) FL' (i), conjectured to be an equality ([Grothendieck amended] Hodge conjecture), and corresponding graded morphisms Tk ,i : Grak ( i ) = F ak(i)/Fak+1(i) n (i) /Fr(i) = G rti (i), w hich aga in translate to isom orphism s if one assum es th e Hodge conjecture to b e t r u e .

Our main assumption is a standard conjecture of Lefschetz type: A (* ): ( j* ) is algebraic, i.e. induced by a n algebraic cycle with rational coeffi-
