Over a field of characteristic zero, we establish the homotopy invariance of the Nisnevich cohomology of homotopy invariant presheaves with oriented weak transfers, and the agreement of Zariski and Nisnevich cohomology for such presheaves. This generalizes a foundational result in Voevodsky's theory of motives. The main idea is to find explicit smooth representatives of the correspondences which provide the input for Voevodsky's cohomological architecture.

This paper studies higher index theory for a random sequence of bounded degree, finite graphs with diameter tending to infinity. We show that in a natural model for such random sequences the following hold almost surely: the coarse Baum-Connes assembly map is injective; the coarse Baum-Connes assembly map is not surjective; the maximal coarse Baum-Connes assembly map is an isomorphism. These results are closely tied to issues of expansion in graphs: in particular, we also show that such random sequences almost surely do not have geometric property (T), a strong form of expansion. The key geometric ingredients in the proof are due to Mendel and Naor: in our context, their results imply that a random sequence of graphs almost surely admits a weak form of coarse embedding into Hilbert space.

We study pro excision in algebraic K-theory, following Suslin--Wodzicki, Cuntz--Quillen, Corti~nas, and Geisser--Hesselholt, as well as Artin--Rees and continuity properties of Andr'e--Quillen, Hochschild, and cyclic homology. Our key tool is to first establish the equivalence of various pro Tor vanishing conditions which appear in the literature. Using this we prove that all ideals of commutative, Noetherian rings are pro unital in a certain sense, and show that such ideals satisfy pro excision in $K$-theory as well as in cyclic and topological cyclic homology. In addition, our techniques yield a strong form of the pro Hochschild--Kostant--Rosenberg theorem, an extension to general base rings of the Cuntz--Quillen excision theorem in periodic cyclic homology, and a generalisation of the Feu{i}gin--Tsygan theorem.

Let k be an algebraically closed subfield of the complex numbers, and X a variety defined over k. One version of the Beilinson-Hodge conjecture that seems to survive scrutiny is the statement that the Betti cycle class map cl_{r,m} : H_M^{2r-m}(k(X),Q(r)) -> hom_{MHS}(Q(0),H^{2r-m}(k(X)(C),Q(r))) is surjective, that being equivalent to the Hodge conjecture in the case m=0. Now consider a smooth and proper map rho : X -> S of smooth quasi-projective varieties over k. We formulate a version of this conjecture for the generic fibre, expecting the corresponding cycle class map to be surjective. We provide some evidence in support of this in the case where X is a product, the map is the projection to one factor, and m=1.
设k是复数的代数闭子域,X是定义在k上的一个变种。贝林森-霍奇猜想的一个版本似乎可以通过仔细的检验,即Betti循环类映射cl_{r,m}: H_M^{2r-m}(k(X),Q(r)) -> hom_{MHS}(Q(0),H^{2r-m}(k(X)(C),Q(r)))是满射,在m=0的情况下等价于霍奇猜想。现在考虑k上光滑拟射影变体的光滑和适当映射rho: X -> S。我们为一般纤维构造了这个猜想的一个版本,期望相应的循环类映射是满射的。在X是乘积的情况下,我们提供了一些证据来支持这一点,映射是对一个因子的投影,m=1。

We study Farrell Nil-groups associated to a finite order automorphism of a ring $R$. We show that any such Farrell Nil-group is either trivial, or infinitely generated (as an abelian group). Building on this first result, we then show that any finite group that occurs in such a Farrell Nil-group occurs with infinite multiplicity. If the original finite group is a direct summand, then the countably infinite sum of the finite subgroup also appears as a direct summand. We use this to deduce a structure theorem for countable Farrell Nil-groups with finite exponent. Finally, as an application, we show that if $V$ is any virtually cyclic group, then the associated Farrell or Waldhausen Nil-groups can always be expressed as a countably infinite sum of copies of a finite group, provided they have finite exponent (which is always the case in dimension $0$).

The goal of this paper is to establish fundamental properties of the Hochschild, topological Hochschild, and topological cyclic homologies of commutative, Noetherian rings, which are assumed only to be F-finite in the majority of our results. This mild hypothesis is satisfied in all cases of interest in finite and mixed characteristic algebraic geometry. We prove firstly that the topological Hochschild homology groups, and the homotopy groups of the fixed point spectra $TR^r$, are finitely generated modules. We use this to establish the continuity of these homology theories for any given ideal. A consequence of such continuity results is the pro Hochschild-Kostant-Rosenberg theorem for topological Hochschild and cyclic homology. Finally, we show more generally that the aforementioned finite generation and continuity properties remain true for any proper scheme over such a ring.

We study index theory for manifolds with Baas-Sullivan singularities using geometric K-homology with coefficients in a unital C*-algebra. In particular, we define a natural analog of the Baum-Connes assembly map for a torsion-free discrete group in the context of these singular spaces. The cases of singularities modelled on k-points (i.e., z/k-manifolds) and the circle are discussed in detail. In the case of the former, the associated index theorem is related to the Freed-Melrose index theorem; in the case of latter, the index theorem is related to work of Rosenberg.

We study elementary Tate objects in an exact category. We characterize the category of elementary Tate objects as the smallest sub-category of admissible Ind-Pro objects which contains the categories of admissible Ind-objects and admissible Pro-objects, and which is closed under extensions. We compare Beilinson's approach to Tate modules to Drinfeld's. We establish several properties of the Sato Grassmannian of an elementary Tate object in an idempotent complete exact category (e.g. it is a directed poset). We conclude with a brief treatment of n-Tate modules and n-dimensional ad`{e}les. An appendix due to J. vSvtov'ivcek and J. Trlifaj identifies the category of flat Mittag-Leffler modules with the idempotent completion of the category of admissible Ind-objects in the category of finitely generated projective modules.
我们在一个精确范畴中研究基本的Tate对象。我们将初等Tate对象的范畴描述为可容许Ind-Pro对象的最小子范畴,它包含了可容许ind -对象和可容许pro -对象的范畴,并且在扩展下是封闭的。我们将Beilinson的Tate模块方法与Drinfeld的方法进行比较。我们建立了幂等完全精确范畴上初等Tate对象的Sato Grassmannian的几个性质(例如它是一个有向偏集)。最后,我们对n-Tate模和n维ad {e}进行了简要的处理。在J. v vtov ivcek和J. Trlifaj的附录中,利用有限生成投影模范畴中可容许ind对象范畴的幂等补全,确定了平面Mittag-Leffler模的范畴。
