Waldhausen's algebraic K-theory machinery is applied to motivic homotopy theory, producing an interesting motivic homotopy type. Over a field F of characteristic zero, its path components receive a surjective ring homomorphism from the…

In this paper we study a spectrum $K(\mathcal{V}_k)$ such that $\pi_0 K(\mathcal{V}_k)$ is the Grothendieck ring of varieties and such that the higher homotopy groups contain more geometric information about the geometry of varieties. We…

We lift the classical Hasse--Weil zeta function of varieties over a finite field to a map of spectra with domain the Grothendieck spectrum of varieties constructed by Campbell and Zakharevich. We use this map to prove that the Grothendieck…

For an additive Waldhausen category linear over a ring $k$, the corresponding $K$-theory spectrum is a module spectrum over the $K$-theory spectrum of $k$. Thus if $k$ is a finite field of characteristic $p$, then after localization at $p$,…

We introduce the notion of a bounded weight structure on a stable $\infty$-category and use this to prove the natural generalization of Waldhausen's sphere theorem: We show that the algebraic $K$-theory of a stable $\infty$-category with a…

We study the question of the existence of a Waldhausen category on any (relative) abelian category in which the contractible objects are the (relatively) projective objects. The associated $K$-theory groups are "stable algebraic…

This work is devoted to the study of the foundations of quantum K-theory, a K-theoretic version of quantum cohomology theory. In particular, it gives a deformation of the ordinary K-ring K(X) of a smooth projective variety X, analogous to…

The aim of this paper is to describe the topological $K$-ring, in terms of generators and relations of a flag Bott manifold. We apply our results to give a presentation for the topological K-ring and hence the Grothendieck ring of algebraic…

It is now well known that the K-theory of a Waldhausen category depends on more than just its (triangulated) homotopy category (see [Schlichting]). The purpose of this note is to show that the K-theory spectrum of a (good) Waldhausen…

Let $G$ be a split semisimple linear algebraic group over a field and let $X$ be a generic twisted flag variety of $G$. Extending the Hilbert basis techniques to Laurent polynomials over integers we give an explicit presentation of the…

This paper provides a complete presentation of $K_1(Var)$, the $K_1$ group of varieties, resolving and simplifying a problem left open in \cite{ZakhK1}. Our approach adapts Gillet-Grayson's $G$-Construction to define an un-delooped…

We give a small functorial algebraic model for the 2-stage Postnikov section of the K-theory spectrum of a Waldhausen category and use our presentation to describe the multiplicative structure with respect to biexact functors.

We prove that Waldhausen K-theory, when extended to a very general class of quasicategories, can be described as a Goodwillie differential. In particular, K-theory spaces admit canonical (connective) deloopings, and the K-theory functor…

In this paper we study the "holomorphic K-theory" of a projective variety, which is defined in terms of the homotopy type of spaces of holomorphic maps from the variety to Grassmannians and loop groups. This theory was introduced by Lawson,…

We introduce a periodic form of the iterated algebraic K-theory of ku, the (connective) complex K-theory spectrum, as well as a natural twisting of this cohomology theory by higher gerbes. Furthermore, we prove a form of topological…

We describe the algebraic K-theory of the $K(1)$-local sphere and the category of type 2 finite spectra in terms of K-theory of discrete rings and topological cyclic homology. We find an infinite family of 2-torsion classes in the $K_0$ of…

We decompose the K-theory space of a Waldhausen category in terms of its Dwyer-Kan simplicial localization. This leads to a criterion for functors to induce equivalences of K-theory spectra that generalizes and explains many of the criteria…

Recall that the definition of the $K$-theory of an object C (e.g., a ring or a space) has the following pattern. One first associates to the object C a category A_C that has a suitable structure (exact, Waldhausen, symmetric monoidal, ...).…

We introduce a version of algebraic $K$-theory for coefficient systems of rings which is valued in genuine $G$-spectra for a finite group $G$. We use this construction to build a genuine $G$-spectrum $K_G(\mathbb{Z}[\underline{\pi_1(X)}])$…

We show that the map from $K({\mathbb S})$ to its chromatic completion is a connective cover and identify the fiber in $K$-theoretic terms. We combine this with recent work of Land-Mathew-Meier-Tamme to prove a form of "Waldhausen's…
