The log Grothendieck ring of varieties

Algebraic Geometry 2024-12-11 v1

Abstract

We define a Grothendieck ring of varieties for log schemes. It is generated by one additional class ``PP'' over the usual Grothendieck ring. We show the na\"ive definition of log Hodge numbers does not make sense for all log schemes. We offer an alternative that does.
