Abstract
We show that by working over the absolute base (the categorical version of the sphere spectrum) instead of improves our previous Riemann-Roch formula for . The formula equates the (integer-valued) Euler characteristic of an Arakelov divisor with the sum of the degree of the divisor (using logarithms with base 2) and the number , thus confirming the understanding of the ring as a ring of polynomials in one variable over the absolute base , namely .
