We recall some basic computations in the Milnor-Witt K-theory of a field, following Morel. We then focus on the Witt K-theory of a field of characteristic two and give an elementary proof of the fact that it is isomorphic as a graded ring…

We advance the understanding of K-theory of quadratic forms by computing the slices of the motivic spectra representing hermitian K-groups and Witt-groups. By an explicit computation of the slice spectral sequence for higher Witt-theory, we…

This paper studies "pro-excision" for the K-theory of one-dimensional (usually semi-local) rings and its various applications. In particular, we prove Geller's conjecture for equal characteristic rings over a perfect field of finite…

Consider a complete discrete valuation ring $\mathcal{O}$ with quotient field $F$ and finite residue field. Then the inclusion map $\mathcal{O} \hookrightarrow F$ induces a map $\hat{\mathrm{K}}^\mathrm{M}_*\mathcal{O} \to…

Let F be a field, let G be its absolute Galois group, and let R(G, k) be the representation ring of G over a suitable field k. In this preprint we construct a ring homomorphism from the mod 2 Milnor K-theory k_*(F) to the graded ring gr…

A rational positive-definite quadratic form is perfect if it can be reconstructed from the knowledge of its minimal nonzero value m and the finite set of integral vectors v such that f(v) = m. This concept was introduced by Voronoi and…

We use recent results proved by Berrick and the author (math.KT/0509404) to improve the periodicity theorem in hermitian K-theory. We define also a new filtration of the classical Witt ring W(A), built from non degenerate quadratic forms…

We investigate the standard graded $k$-algebras over a field $k$ of characteristic zero for which general linear forms are exact zero divisors. We formulate a conjecture regarding the Hilbert function of such rings. We prove our conjecture…

Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $2$ and let $K/F$ be a purely inseparable extension of exponent $1$. We show that the extension is excellent for quadratic forms. Using the excellence we recover and extend results by Aravire and…

We employ the slice spectral sequence, the motivic Steenrod algebra, and Voevodsky's solutions of the Milnor and Bloch-Kato conjectures to calculate the hermitian $K$-groups of rings of integers in number fields. Moreover, we relate the…

An integral quadratic form is called strictly $n$-regular if it primitively represents all quadratic forms in $n$ variables that are primitively represented by its genus. For any $n \geq 2$, it will be shown that there are only finitely…

We compute the algebraic K-theory of the non-commutative ring k<x_1,...,x_n>/(m^a) when k is a perfect field of positive characteristic and m=(x_1,...,x_n). We express the answer in terms of the truncation poset Witt vectors developed in…

We describe the modulo $2$ de Rham-Witt complex of a field of characteristic $2$, in terms of the powers of the augmentation ideal of the $\mathbb{Z}/2$-geometric fixed points of real topological restriction homology TRR. This is analogous…

The authors establish a connection between the Quillen K-theory of certain local fields and the de Rham-Witt complex of their rings of integers with logarithmic poles at the maximal ideal. They consider fields K that are complete discrete…

We introduce controlled $KK$-theory groups associated to a pair $(A,B)$ of separable $C^*$-algebras. Roughly, these consist of elements of the usual $K$-theory group $K_0(B)$ that approximately commute with elements of $A$. Our main results…

H. J. S. Smith proved Fermat's two-square theorem using the notion of palindromic continuants. In this paper we extend Smith's approach to proper binary quadratic form representations in some commutative Euclidean rings, including rings of…

In this thesis we generalise the six-term exact sequence in graded $KK$-theory obtained in a paper of Kumjian, Pask and Sims (2017) to allow correspondences with non-compact left action. In particular, this allows us to compute the graded…

Counterparts of several classical results of number theory are proven for the ring of polynomials with coefficients in a number field. A theorem of Milnor that determines the Witt ring of a function field is applied to prove an analogue of…

In 2012 the first named author conjectured that totally real quartic fields of fundamental discriminant are determined by the isometry class of the integral trace zero form; such conjecture was based on computational evidence and the analog…

We study the algebraic $K$-theory of rings of the form $R[x]/x^e$. We do this via trace methods and filtrations on topological Hochschild homology and related theories by quasisyntomic sheaves. We produce computations for $R$ a perfectoid…
