The Grothendieck ring of varieties has well-known realization maps to, say, mixed Hodge structures or compactly supported $\ell$-adic cohomology. Zakharevich and\ Campbell have developed {a spectral refinement} of the Grothendieck ring of…
We consider the "limiting behavior" of *discriminants*, by which we mean informally the locus in some parameter space of some type of object where the objects have certain singularities. We focus on the space of partially labeled points on…
Using integral $p$-adic Hodge theory, Kato and Koshikawa define a generalization of the Faltings height of an abelian variety to motives defined over a number field. Assuming the adelic Mumford-Tate conjecture, we prove a finiteness…
We define a motivic Greenlees spectral sequence by characterising an associated $t$-structure. We then examine a motivic version of topological Hochschild homology for the motivic cohomology spectrum modulo a prime number $p$. Finally, we…
It is an open conjecture of Orlov that the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves of a smooth projective variety determines its Chow motive with rational coefficients. In this master's thesis we introduce a category of \emph{perfect…
Let A and B be two central simple algebras of a prime degree n over a field F generating the same subgroup in the Brauer group. We show that the Chow motive of a Severi-Brauer variety SB(A) is a direct summand of the motive of a generalized…
We prove that the class of the classifying stack $B PGL_n$ is the multiplicative inverse of the class of the projective linear group $PGL_n$ in the Grothendieck ring of stacks for $n = 2$ and $n = 3$ under mild conditions on the base field…
The goal of this paper is to define a certain Chow weight structure for the category of Voevodsky's motivic complexes with integral coefficients (as described by Cisinski and Deglise) over any excellent finite-dimensional separated scheme…
We define model category structures on the category of chain complexes over a Grothendieck abelian category depending on the choice of a generating family, and we study their behaviour with respect to tensor products and stabilization. This…
For an abelian variety $A$ over a finitely generated field $K$ of characteristic $p > 0$, we prove that the algebraic rank of $A$ is at most a suitably defined analytic rank. Moreover, we prove that equality, i.e., the BSD rank conjecture,…
We prove that for $1$-motives defined over an algebraically closed subfield of $\C$, viewed as Nori motives, the motivic Galois group is the Mumford-Tate group. In particular, the Hodge realization of the tannakian category of (Nori)…
We prove a formula, originally due to Feit and Fine, for the class of the commuting variety in the Grothendieck group of varieties. Our method, which uses a power structure on the Grothendieck group of stacks, allows us to prove several…
Let $p$ be a prime and $q$ be a power of $p$. We compute the Chow ring of the classifying space of some Chevalley groups $G(\mathbb{F}_q)$, when considered as a finite algebraic group over a field of characteristic $p$ containing…
Motivic cohomology is powerful tool in algebraic geometry with associated realization maps giving important information about the relations between cohomological invariants of schemes and their classifying spaces. The problem of computing…
This paper provides a computation of the mod 2 Chow ring of the motivic \'etale classifying space of the finite group $\mathrm{Syl}_2(\mathrm{GL}(4,2))$. It outlines a general computation strategy, adapted from work by Burt Totaro, that has…
We study properties of a category after quotienting out a suitable chosen group of isomorphisms on each object. Coproducts in the original category are described in its quotient by our new weaker notion of a 'phased coproduct'. We examine…
We initiate a study of path spaces in the nascent context of "motivic dga's", under development in doctoral work by Gabriella Guzman. This enables us to reconstruct the unipotent fundamental group of a pointed scheme from the associated…
Motivic equivalence for algebraic groups was recently introduced in [9], where a characterization of motivic equivalent groups in terms of higher Tits indexes is given. As a consequence, if the quadrics associated to two quadratic forms…
We prove a formula for the motive of the stack of vector bundles of fixed rank and degree over a smooth projective curve in Voevodsky's triangulated category of mixed motives with rational coefficients.
Let $\mathbf{T}$ be a neutral tannakian category over a field of characteristic 0. Let $M$ be an object of $\mathbf{T}$ with a filtration $0=F_0M\subsetneq F_1M\subsetneq \cdots\subsetneq F_kM=M$, such that each successive quotient…
