K-theoretic defect in Chern class identity for a free divisor

Algebraic Geometry 2016-12-26 v1

Abstract

Let XX be a nonsingular variety defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 00, and DD be a free divisor. We study the motivic Chern class of DD in the Grothendieck group of coherent sheaves G0(X)G_0(X), and another class defined by the sheaf of logarithmic differentials along DD. We give explicit calculations of the difference of these two classes when: DD is a divisor on a nonsingular surface; DD is a hyperplane arrangement whose affine cone is free.
