We introduce the notion of the boundary motive of a scheme X over a perfect field. By definition, it measures the difference between the motive X and the motive with compact support of X. We develop three tools to compute the boundary…
We explain the role of the boundary motive in the construction of certain Chow motives, and of extensions of Chow motives. Our two main examples concern proper, singular surfaces and fibre products of a universal elliptic curve.
We study genus 2 Hilbert-Siegel varieties, i.e. Shimura varieties $S_K$ corresponding to the group $\mbox{GSp}_{4,F}$ over a totally real field $F$, along with the relative Chow motives $^\lambda \mathcal{V}$ of abelian type over $S_K$…
The purpose of this article is to provide a simplified construction of the intermediate extension of a Chow motive, provided a condition on absence of weights in the boundary is satisfied. We give a criterion, which guarantees the validity…
In this article, we construct a Hecke-equivariant Chow motive whose realizations equal intersection cohomology of Siegel threefolds with regular algebraic coefficients. As a consequence, we are able to define Grothendieck motives for Siegel…
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…
The purpose of this article is to construct a Hecke-equivariant Chow motive whose realizations equal interior (or intersection) cohomology of Picard surfaces with regular algebraic coefficients. As a consequence, we are able to define…
In this paper, we give a notion of the potentially good reduction locus of a Shimura variety. It consists of the points which should be related with motives having potentially good reductions in some sense. We show the existence of such…
Let $X$ be a smooth cubic hypersurface, and let $F$ be the Fano variety of lines on $X$. We establish a relation between the Chow motives of $X$ and $F$. This relation implies in particular that if $X$ has finite-dimensional motive (in the…
The purpose of this article is to construct a Hecke-equivariant Chow motive whose realizations equal interior (or intersection) cohomology of Hilbert-Blumenthal varieties with non-constant algebraic coefficients.
We study the motivic cohomology of the special fiber of quaternionic Shimura varieties at a prime of good reduction. We exhibit classes in these motivic cohomology groups and use this to give an explicit geometric realization of level…
We prove that the generating series of special divisors in toroidal compactifications of orthogonal Shimura varieties is a mixed mock modular form. More precisely, we find an explicit completion using theta series associated to rays in the…
In this article, we give an unconditional construction of a motivic analogue of the intermediate extension in the context of Chow motives of Abelian type. Our main application concerns intermediate extensions of Chow motives associated to…
Using a version of weight conservativity we demonstrate that for certain Shimura varieties (including all Shimura three-folds, most Shimura four-folds and the Siegel sixfold) the construction of the motivic intersection complex due to…
The aim of this article is the construction of the interior motive of a Picard variety. Those are Shimura varieties of PEL type. Our result is an application of the strategy developed by Wildeshaus to construct a Hecke-invariant motive…
K. Kato has recently defined and studied heights of mixed motives and proposed some interesting questions. In this paper, we relate the study of heights to the study of Tamagawa numbers of motives. We also partially answer one of Kato's…
For a cellular variety $X$ over a field $k$ of characteristic 0 and an algebraic oriented cohomology theory $\hh$ of Levine-Morel we construct a filtration on the cohomology ring $\hh(X)$ such that the associated graded ring is isomorphic…
In this paper we study resolutions which arise as iterated mapping cones.
We apply Wildeshaus's theory of motivic intermediate extensions to the motivic decomposition conjecture, formulated by Deninger-Murre and Corti-Hanamura. We first obtain a general motivic decomposition for the Chow motive of an arbitrary…
We consider Fano sevenfolds $Y$ obtained by intersecting the Grassmannian $\hbox{Gr}(3,6)$ with a codimension 2 linear subspace (with respect to the Pl\"ucker embedding). We prove that the motive of $Y$ is Kimura finite-dimensional. We also…
