In this survey, we explain how to compute both the quadratic Euler characteristic of nearby cycles, and the motivic monodromy, at a quasi-homogeneous singularity. This gives, for such singularity, a quadratic refinement to the…

The purpose of this paper is to show that the monodromy of action variables of the Lagrange top and its generalizations can be deduced from the monodromy of cycles on a suitable hyperelliptic curve (computed by the Picard-Lefschetz…

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…

The purpose of this paper is to study motivic aspects of the Hitchin system for $\mathrm{GL}_n$. Our results include the following. (a) We prove the motivic decomposition conjecture of Corti-Hanamura for the Hitchin system; in particular,…

We prove a mixed characteristic analog of the Beilinson-Lichtenbaum Conjecture for p-adic motivic cohomology. It gives a description, in the stable range, of p-adic motivic cohomology (defined using algebraic cycles) in terms of…

Using iterated vanishing cycles and convolution, we prove a motivic version of a conjecture of Steenbrink concerning the spectrum of hypersurface singularities

We prove the motivic classes in the motivic cohomology groups of Picard modular surfaces with non-trivial coefficients constructed in a paper of Loeffler\textendash Skinner\textendash Zerbes are in the motivic cohomology groups of the…

We show that the Grothendieck-Chow motive of a smooth hyperplane section $Y$ of an inner twisted form $X$ of a Milnor hypersurface splits as a direct sum of shifted copies of the motive of the Severi-Brauer variety of the associated cyclic…

For any polynomial f with complex coefficients we find a remarkable subset of poles of the motivic zeta function. It is combinatorially determined by any log resolution and it admits an intrinsic interpretation in terms of contact loci of…

The goal of this paper is to study non-$\mathbb{A}^1$-invariant motivic cohomology, recently defined by Elmanto, Morrow, and the first-named author, for smooth schemes over possibly non-discrete valuation rings. We establish that the cycle…

In this thesis we give two applications of Ayoub's motivic nearby cycles functor: First we give a generalization of Grothendieck's classical local monodromy theorem. In the classical setup we show that the inertia group acts…

These notes are an account of a series of lectures I gave at the LMS-CMI Research School `Homotopy Theory and Arithmetic Geometry: Motivic and Diophantine Aspects', in July 2018, at the Imperial College London. The goal of these notes is to…

We give a new proof - not using resolution of singularities - of a formula of Denef and the second author expressing the Lefschetz number of iterates of the monodromy of a function on a smooth complex algebraic variety in terms of the Euler…

We give a proof the monodromy conjecture relating the poles of motivic zeta functions with roots of b-functions for isolated quasihomogeneous hypersurfaces, and more generally for semi-quasihomogeneous hypersurfaces. We also give a strange…

We give here a description of the motivic Poincare series in case of irreducible quasi-ordinary hypersurfaces in all dimension. We give an explicit formula in a particular case. Finally, for such singularities, we give a constructive proof…

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…

For the universal family of cyclic covers of projective spaces branched along hyperplane arrangements in general position, we consider its monodromy group acting on an eigen linear subspace of the middle cohomology of the fiber. We prove…

We provide a new, geometric proof of the motivic monodromy conjecture for non-degenerate hypersurfaces in dimension $3$, which has been proven previously by the work of Lemahieu--Van Proeyen and Bories--Veys. More generally, given a…

We give a survey on some aspects of the topological investigation of isolated singularities of complex hypersurfaces by means of Picard-Lefschetz theory. We focus on the concept of distinguished bases of vanishing cycles and the concept of…

The rational points of a smooth curve $X$ over a number field $k$ map to the set of augmentations of the associated motivic algebra. An expectation, related to Kim's conjecture, is that for $X$ hyperbolic, the set of augmentations which…
