We establish a motivic version of the May Nilpotence Conjecture: if E is a normed motivic spectrum that satisfies $E \wedge HZ \simeq 0$, then also $E \wedge MGL \simeq 0$. In words, motivic homology detects vanishing of normed modules over…

We investigate forms of the Hopf invariant one problem in motivic homotopy theory over arbitrary base fields of characteristic not equal to $2$. Maps of Hopf invariant one classically arise from unital products on spheres, and one…

This note serves to record examples of diffeomorphisms of closed smooth $4$-manifolds $X$ that are homotopic but not pseudoisotopic to the identity, and to explain why there are no such examples when $X$ is orientable and its fundamental…

The main goal of this paper is to deduce (from a recent resolution of singularities result of Gabber) the following fact: (effective) Chow motives with $Z[1/p]$-coefficients over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p$ generate the…

In this expository article, we give the foundations, basic facts, and first examples of unstable motivic homotopy theory with a view towards the approach of Asok-Fasel to the classification of vector bundles on smooth complex affine…

We prove that a motivic equivalence of objects of the form \begin{equation*} X/(X-x)\simeq X^\prime/(X^\prime-x^\prime) \end{equation*} in $\mathbf{H}^\bullet(B)$ or $\mathbf{DM}(B)$ over a scheme $B$, where $x$ and $x^\prime$ are closed…

It is shown that modular invariance provides a natural explanation for the absence of monopoles when assumed to be a discrete gauge symmetry. It follows that monopoles can not be seen because it is always possible to find a suitable…

We survey over some recent applications of motivic homotopy theory in the definition and the study of $p$-adic cohomology theories. In particular, we revisit the proof of the $p$-adic weight-monodromy conjecture for smooth projective…

We prove that any category of props in a symmetric monoidal model category inherits a model structure. We devote an appendix, about half the size of the paper, to the proof of the model category axioms in a general setting. We need the…

We analyze stabilization with respect to ${\mathbb P}^1$ in the Morel--Voevodsky unstable motivic homotopy theory. We introduce a refined notion of cellularity (a.k.a., biconnectivity) in various motivic homotopy categories taking into…

We describe the behaviour of the homotopy similarity relations and finite-order invariants under the function $[X,Y]\to[X,Z]$ induced by a map $Y\to Z$ strongly $r$-similar to the constant map.

Let k be a base commutative ring, R a commutative ring of coefficients, X a quasi-compact quasi-separated k-scheme, A a sheaf of Azumaya algebras over X of rank r, and Hmo(R) the category of noncommutative motives with R-coefficients.…

Given a perfect field of exponential characteristic $e$ and a functor $f:\mathcal A\to\mathcal B$ between symmetric monoidal strict $V$-categories of correspondences satisfying the cancellation property such that the induced morphisms of…

Let H be a homology theory for algebraic varieties over a field k. To a complete k-variety X, one naturally attaches an ideal of the coefficient ring H(k). We show that, when X is regular, this ideal depends only on the upper Chow motive of…

Let $k$ be a number field. We describe the category of Laumon 1-isomotives over $k$ as the universal category in the sense of Nori associated with a quiver representation built out of smooth proper $k$-curves with two disjoint effective…

Our main purpose is to describe the category of isotropic cellular spectra over flexible fields. Guided by [6], we show that it is equivalent, as a stable $\infty$-category equipped with a $t$-structure, to the derived category of left…

Let $M$ be an Anderson t-motive of dimension $n$ and rank $r$. Associated are two $\Bbb F_q[T]$-modules $H^1(M)$, $H_1(M)$ of dimensions $h^1(M)$, $h_1(M)\le r$ - analogs of $H^1(A,\Bbb Z)$, $H_1(A,\Bbb Z)$ for an abelian variety $A$. There…

Let X be a smooth complex algebraic variety. Morgan [Mor78] showed that the rational homotopy type of X is a formal consequence of the differential graded algebra defined by the first term of its weight spectral sequence. In the present…

The monopole map defines an element in an equivariant stable cohomotopy group refining the Seiberg-Witten invariant. This first of two articles presents the details of the definition of the stable cohomotopy invariant and discusses its…

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…
