Spectrum of the Grothendieck ring of varieties
Here's a problem that may ultimately require just simple algebraic-geometry skills to be solved, or perhaps it's very deep and will never be solved at all. From the comments, some literature and my ...

Are "strongly finite dimensional" homotopy invariant sheaves with transfers (locally) constant?
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Let $S$ be a homotopy invariant $\mathbb{Q}$-linear sheaf with transfers in the sense of Voevodsky–Suslin, and assume that the dimension of $S(U)$ (over $\...

Arc space & formal loops in motivic integration
One of the most essential ingredients in the theory of motivic integration are the space of arcs of a given $k$-variety
$X$. This is a scheme, whose $k$-rational points are the $k[[t]]$-valued points ...

Finiteness results in the category of schemes up to $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy
In algebraic geometry, we know that there exist geometrical conditions on a scheme $X/k$ for having finitely many rational points when $k$ is a number field. Namely for curves there is the Mordell ...

Motivic strong bellows conjecture
There is a theorem due to Gaifullin--Ignashchenko stating that the Dehn invariant of any flexible polyhedron in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space ($n\geq 3$) is constant during the flexion.
Is ...

Why would one "attempt" to define points of a motive as $\operatorname{Ext}^1(\mathbb{Q}(0),M)$?
I'm a novice when it comes to motives. (I've read multiple introductory texts.)
I'm attempting to read Galois Theory and Diophantine geometry by Minhyong Kim. In it, he says that "One might attempt, ...

(Mixed) Tate motives
Hi there,
in recent times I was reading texts about motives, and I want to ask
something about Tate motives which is not clear to me (as I came across
