A natural place to study the Chow ring of the classifying space $BG$, for $G$ a linear algebraic group, is Voevodsky's triangulated category of motives, inside which Morel and Voevodsky, and Totaro have defined motives $M(BG)$ and…

This thesis is concerned with the mixed Tate property of reductive algebraic groups $G$, which in particular guarantees a Chow Kunneth property for the classifying space $BG$. Toward this goal, we first refine the construction of the…

Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group over a perfect field $k$ and $\cG$ a $G$-bundle over a scheme $X/k$. The main aim of this article is to study the motive associated with $\cG$, inside the Veovodsky Motivic categories. We consider the…

For a variety with a Whitney stratification by affine spaces, we study categories of motivic sheaves which are constant mixed Tate along the strata. We are particularly interested in those cases where the category of mixed Tate motives over…

Building on earlier work concerning the motives of $G$-bundles, we study the structure of motives associated with certain classes of $G$-varieties. In particular, we show that the corresponding motives lie within the category of mixed-Tate…

We establish the complete classification of Chow motives of projective homogeneous varieties for $p$-inner semi-simple algebraic groups, with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$. Our results involve a new motivic invariant, the Tate…

Let G be a semisimple affine algebraic group over a field F. Assuming that G becomes of inner type over some finite field extension of F of degree a power of a prime p, we investigate the structure of the Chow motives with coefficients in a…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $\{B_{\mathbb{C}}G\}$ the class of its classifying stack $B_{\mathbb{C}}G$ in Ekedahl's Grothendieck ring of algebraic $\mathbb{C}$-stacks $K_0(\operatorname{Stacks}_{\mathbb{C}})$. We show that if…

Combining work of Peyre, Colliot-Th\'el\`ene and Voisin, we give the first example of a finite group $G$ such that the motivic class of its classifying stack $BG$ in Ekedahl's Grothendieck ring of stacks over $\mathbb{C}$ is non-trivial and…

For every smooth and separated Deligne-Mumford stack $F$, we associate a motive $M(F)$ in Voevodsky's category of mixed motives with rational coefficients $\mathbf{DM}^{\eff}(k,\mathbb{Q})$. When $F$ is proper over a field of characteristic…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ with associated finite group of Lie type $G^{F}$. Let $T$ be a maximal torus contained inside a Borel $B$ of $G$. We relate the (rational) Tate motives of $\text{B}G^{F}$ with the…

Given a finite group G, we develop a theory of G-equivariant noncommutative motives. This theory provides a well-adapted framework for the study of G-schemes, Picard groups of schemes, G-algebras, 2-cocycles, equivariant algebraic K-theory,…

Over a perfect field k, let G be an extension of an abelian variety by the multiplicative group $\G_m$. We compute the motive of G in Voevodsky's category of etale motivic complexes with rational coefficients. The result is a decomposition…

We define the category of mixed Tate motives over the ring of S-integers of a number field. We define the motivic fundamental group (made unipotent) of a unirational variety over a number field. We apply this to the study of the motivic…

We give necessary conditions for a category fibred in pseudo-abelian additive categories over the classifying topos of a profinite group to be a stack; these conditions are sufficient when the coefficients are $\mathbf{Q}$-linear. This…

Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface of genus $g \geq 2$ and let $D\subset X$ be a fixed finite subset. We considered the moduli spaces of parabolic Higgs bundles and of parabolic connections over $X$ with the parabolic structure over $D$.…

We define and compare two different definitions of Chow motives for Deligne-Mumford stacks, associated with two definitions of Chow rings. The main result we prove is that both categories of motives are equivalent to the usual category of…

We define a ring of motivic classes of stacks suitable for symmetric powers in finite characteristic. Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over a field of arbitrary characteristic. We calculate the motivic classes of the moduli stacks of…

Let $\mathbb{k}$ be a field of characteristic $p$. We introduce a formalism of mixed sheaves with coefficients in $\mathbb{k}$ and showcase its use in representation theory. More precisely, we construct for all quasi-projective schemes $X$…

We prove that the symmetric monoidal category of mixed motives generated by an abelian variety (more generally, an abelian scheme) can be described as a certain module category. More precisely, we describe it as the category of…
