In the present article we define an integral analogue of Chow-K\"unneth decomposition for \'etale motives. By using families of conservative functors we are able to establish a decomposition of the \'etale motive of commutative group…

We construct an explicit, multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition for the Hilbert scheme of points of a K3 surface. We further refine this decomposition with respect to the action of the Looijenga-Lunts-Verbitsky Lie algebra.

The Hilbert scheme $X^{[3]}$ of length-$3$ subschemes of a smooth projective variety $X$ is known to be smooth and projective. We investigate whether the property of having a multiplicative Chow-Kuenneth decomposition is stable under taking…

Let $Y$ be a smooth complete intersection of a quadric and a cubic in $\mathbb{P}^n$, with $n$ even. We show that $Y$ has a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen-Vial. As a consequence, the Chow ring of (powers…

Let $Y$ be a smooth complete intersection of three quadrics, and assume the dimension of $Y$ is even. We show that $Y$ has a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen-Vial. As a consequence, the Chow ring of (powers…

Given a smooth projective variety, a Chow-K\"unneth decomposition is called multiplicative if it is compatible with the intersection product. Following works of Beauville and Voisin, Shen and Vial conjectured that hyper-K\"ahler varieties…

In this paper we investigate Murre's conjecture on the Chow--K\"unneth decomposition for two classes of examples. We look at the universal families of smooth curves over spaces which dominate the moduli space $\cM_g$, in genus at most 8 and…

In this paper, we investigate Murre's conjecture on the existence of a Chow--Kuenneth decomposition for a rational homogeneous bundle $Z\to S$ over a smooth variety, defined over complex numbers. Chow-K\"unneth decomposition is exhibited…

We prove that K\"uchle fourfolds $X$ of type d3 have a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition. We present some consequences for the Chow ring of $X$.

This article is about motives of quadric bundles. In the case of odd dimensional fibers and where the basis is of dimension two we give an explicit relative and absolute Chow-K\"unneth decomposition. This shows that the motive of the…

We exhibit several families of Fano threefolds with a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen-Vial. As a consequence, a certain tautological subring of the Chow ring of powers of these threefolds injects into…

We give a survey of the background and recent development on the $K$-equivalence relation among birational manifolds. After a brief historical sketch of birational geometry, we define the $K$-partial ordering and $K$-equivalence in a…

This is a considerably expanded version of the "pure" part of our 2002 preprint. We define a category of pure birational motives over a field, depending on the choice of an adequate equivalence relation on algebraic cycles. It is obtained…

In this paper, we show the existence of a Chow--Kuenneth decomposition for the moduli stack of stable curves of genus g with r marked points, for low values of g,r. We also look at the moduli space R of double covers of genus 3 curves,…

We construct a relative Chow-Kunneth decomposition for a conic bundle over a surface such that the middle projector gives the Prym variety of the associated double covering of the discriminant of the conic bundle. This gives a refinement…

The decomposition theorem for smooth projective morphisms $\pi:\mathcal{X}\rightarrow B$ says that $R\pi_*\mathbb{Q}$ decomposes as $\oplus R^i\pi_*\mathbb{Q}[-i]$. We describe simple examples where it is not possible to have such a…

Using wall-crossing for K3 surfaces, we establish birational equivalence of moduli spaces of stable objects on generic Enriques surfaces for different stability conditions. As an application, we prove in the case of a Mukai vector of odd…

We study a formal deformation problem for rational algebraic cycle classes motivated by Grothendieck's variational Hodge conjecture. We argue that there is a close connection between the existence of a Chow-K\"unneth decomposition and the…

We consider proper, algebraic semismall maps f from a complex algebraic manifold X. We show that the topological Decomposition Theorem implies a "motivic" decomposition theorem for the rational algebraic cycles of X and, in the case X is…

Given a smooth projective variety $M$ endowed with a faithful action of a finite group $G$, following Jarvis-Kaufmann-Kimura and Fantechi-G\"ottsche, we define the orbifold motive (or Chen-Ruan motive) of the quotient stack $[M/G]$ as an…
