Abstract

The main goal of this paper is to define the so-called Chow weight structure for the category of Beilinson motives over any 'reasonable' base scheme SS (this is the version of Voevodsky's motives over SS defined by Cisinski and Deglise). We also study the functoriality properties of the Chow weight structure (they are very similar to the well-known functoriality of weights for mixed complexes of sheaves). As shown in a preceding paper, the Chow weight structure automatically yields an exact conservative weight complex functor (with values in Kb(Chow(S))K^b(Chow(S))). Here Chow(S)Chow(S) is the heart of the Chow weight structure; it is 'generated' by motives of regular schemes that are projective over SS. Besides, Grothendiek's group of SS-motives is isomorphic to K0(Chow(S))K_0(Chow(S)); we also define a certain 'motivic Euler characteristic' for SS-schemes. We obtain (Chow)-weight spectral sequences and filtrations for any cohomology of motives; we discuss their relation to Beilinson's 'integral part' of motivic cohomology and to weights of mixed complexes of sheaves. For the study of the latter we introduce a new formalism of relative weight structures.
