It's documented here: https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/183101?hl=en

Text editing / Delete the next letter (forward delete): Alt + Backspace
Page & web browser / Page up : Alt + Up arrow
Page & web browser / Page down : Alt + Down arrow
Page & web browser / Go to top of page: Ctrl + Alt + Up arrow
Page & web browser / Go to bottom of page: Ctrl + Alt + Down arrow

But feel free to omit alt-backspace, the others are more important to me.
