We compute the class of the classifying stack of the special orthogonal group in the Grothendieck ring of stacks, and check that it is equal to the multiplicative inverse of the class of the group.

We compute the class of the classifying stack of the exceptional algebraic group $G_2$ and of the spin groups $\mathrm{Spin}_7$ and $\mathrm{Spin}_8$ in the Grothendieck ring of stacks, and show that they are equal to the inverse of the…

Let k be a field, let G be a finite group and let T be a split k-torus on which G acts multiplicatively, and for every m greater than 1 denote by T[m] the m-torsion subgroup of T. Under a suitable assumption on m, we show that the motivic…

We compute the motive of the classifying stack of an orthogonal group in the Grothendieck ring of stacks over a field of characteristic different from two.

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…

We describe the class, in the Grothendieck group of stacks, of the stack of twisted $G$-covers of genus $0$ curves, in terms of the loci corresponding to covers over smooth bases.

We show the compactly supported motive of the moduli stack of degree $n$ rational curves on the weighted projective stack $\mathcal{P}(a,b)$ is of mixed Tate type over any base field $K$ with $\text{char}(K) \nmid a,b$ and has class…

We prove that the moduli spaces of twisted $\mathrm{SL}_n$ and $\mathrm{PGL}_n$-Higgs bundles on a smooth projective curve have the same (stringy) class in the Grothendieck ring of rational Chow motives. On the level of Hodge numbers this…

In the integral cohomology ring of the classifying space of the projective linear group $PGL_n$ (over $\mathbb{C}$), we find a collection of $p$-torsions $y_{p,k}$ of degree $2(p^{k+1}+1)$ for any odd prime divisor $p$ of $n$, and $k\geq…

Let $F$ be a field of characteristic zero admitting a biquadratic field extension. We give an example of a torus $G$ over $F$ whose classifying stack $BG$ is stably rational and such that $\{BG\}\{G\}\neq 1$ in the Grothendieck ring of…

We provide a proof in the language of model categories and symmetric spectra of Lurie's theorem that topological complex $K$-theory represents orientations of the derived multiplicative group. Then we generalize this result to the motivic…

We investigate recursive relations for the Grothendieck classes of the affine graph hypersurface complements of melonic graphs. We compute these classes explicitly for several families of melonic graphs, focusing on the case of graphs with…

We prove that for every reductive algebraic group $H$ with centre of positive dimension and every integer $K$ there is a smooth and projective variety $X$ and an algebraic $H$-torsor $P \to X$ such that the classifying map $X \to \Bclass H$…

Given any irreducible smooth complex projective curve $X$, of genus at least $2$, consider the moduli stack of vector bundles on $X$ of fixed rank and determinant. It is proved that the isomorphism class of the stack uniquely determines the…

We introduce a Grothendieck group of algebraic stacks (with affine stabilisers) analogous to the Grothendieck group of algebraic varieties. We then identify it with a certain localisation of the Grothendieck group of algebraic varieties.…

Let $S = \mathbb{C}[x_{i,j}]$ be the ring of polynomial functions on the space of $m \times n$ matrices, and consider the action of the group $\mathbf{GL} = \mathbf{GL}_m \times \mathbf{GL}_n$ via row and column operations on the matrix…

Approximation theorems for algebraic stacks over a number field $k$ are studied in this article. For G a connected linear algebraic group over a number field we prove strong approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction for the classifying…
