Spectral sequences in $K$-theory

There is an algebraic analogue of the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence from singular cohomology to topological $K$-theory of a topological space. For a field $k$, let $X$ be smooth variety $X$ ...

Can we reconstruct positive weight invariants in algebraic topology using algebraic geometry?

I can't really say that I understand what a weight is, but the qualitative distinction between weight zero and positive weight has come up a couple times in MathOverflow questions: The étale ...

State of the art for Gersten's conjecture for K-theory?

Does anyone know (of a reference to) under what restrictions on the regular scheme $X$ it is known that we have an exact sequence $$0 \to \mathcal{K}_n(X) \to \bigoplus_{x \in X^{(0)}} K_n(k(x)) \to \...

Who proved the motivic 6-functor formalism?

In the recent beautiful talk "Motives and ring stacks" Peter Scholze states the theorem saying that there exists an initial 6-functor formalism on $\mathit{Sch}_\mathbb{Z}$ such that when $...

Values of cohomology theory on a point

$\DeclareMathOperator\Sm{Sm}$It is a well-known fact that in algebraic topology, generalized cohomology theories are determined by their values on the point. I was wondering whether anything similar ...

A question about the (motivic) integral cohomology of the Eilenberg-MacLane spectrum

Let $H\mathbb{Z}$ be the Eilenberg-MacLane spectrum. Let $n\geq 0$ be any integer. Is it known the structure of the group $[H\mathbb{Z},\Sigma^{n}H\mathbb{Z}]$? Is there any reference in this ...

Analytical Dold-Thom

Let's $X$ be a projective smooth variety over a field that has an embedding into $\mathbb{C}$. Let's denote the infinite symmetric power of $X$ by $\text{Sym}^{\infty}(X)$. Denote the algebraic ...

Support of torsion in the Borel–Moore homology

Given a complex quasi-projective variety $X$, let $\alpha$ be an element of the Borel–Moore homology $H_i^\text{BM}(X)$ such that it can be killed by a prime $p$. Under what conditions one can say ...

Suspension Theorem in $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy

In algebraic topology, the suspension theorem tells us that for a topological space $X$, we have $$\tilde{H}^n(X,F)\cong \tilde{H}^{n+k}(S^k\wedge X,F).$$ So I'm wondering if this has an analogue in ...

Do there exist nontrivial motivic cohomology operations preserving weights?

Suppose that for each field $F$ a linear map $X(F): H_M^{p,q}(F, \mathbb{Q}) \longrightarrow H_M^{p,q}(F,\mathbb{Q})$ is given, such that $X$ commutes with inclusions of fields and transfers for ...

Loop spaces of motivic Eilenberg-Mac Lane spaces

Consider the unstable $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy category (say over $\mathbb{C}$). By the loop space $\Omega X$ of an object $X$, we mean the homotopy fiber of $pt\to X$. For an abelian group A and the ...

The multiplicativity of the (complex) geometric realization of motivic cohomology

Consider the (complex) geometric realization of the motivic cohomology theory on simplicial presheaves over complex smooth schemes, which is a functorial homomorphism of $R$-modules, where $R$ is the ...

Contractibility of a $K_0^{\oplus}$ presheaf

Let's assume $X$ is a smooth projective variety over a field. Let $\Delta^{\bullet}$ be the cosimplicial scheme over the same field, where at level $n$ is just the $n$-th algebraic simplex. We can ...
