The Cremona groups are the groups of all birational equivalences of projective spaces and, equivalently, the automorphism groups of the rational function fields. We construct highly connected spaces on which these groups act in a way that allows us to deduce that their abelianisations, and more generally, the homologies of these groups, stabilise as the dimension increases.

This is the first in a series of papers where scissor congruence and K-theoretical invariants are related to cobordism groups of foams in various dimensions. A model example is provided where the cobordism group of weighted one-foams is identified, via the Sah-Arnoux-Fathi invariant, with the first homology of the group of interval exchange automorphisms and with the Zakharevich first K-group of the corresponding assembler. Several variations on this cobordism group are computed as well.

Let $K$ be an arbitrary infinite field. The cohomology group $H^2(SL(2,K), H_2,SL(2,K))$ contains the class of the universal central extension. When studying representations of fundamental groups of surfaces in $SL(2,K)$ it is useful to have classes stable under deformations (Fenchel--Nielsen twists) of representations. We identify the maximal quotient of the universal class which is stable under twists as the Witt class of Nekovar. The Milnor--Wood inequality asserts that an $SL(2,{bf R})$-bundle over a surface of genus $g$ admits a flat structure if and only if its Euler number is $leq (g-1)$. We establish an analog of this inequality, and a saturation result for the Witt class. The result is sharp for the field of rationals, but not sharp in general.

We consider slice filtrations in logarithmic motivic homotopy theory. Our main results establish conjectured compatibilities with the Beilinson, BMS, and HKR filtrations on (topological, log) Hochschild homology and related invariants. In the case of perfect fields admitting resolution of singularities, the motivic trace map is compatible with the slice and BMS filtrations, yielding a natural morphism from the motivic Atiyah-Hirzerbruch spectral sequence to the BMS spectral sequence. Finally, we consider the Kummer 'etale hypersheafification of logarithmic $K$-theory and show that its very effective slices compute Lichtenbaum 'etale motivic cohomology.

We show that every reciprocity sheaf gives rise to a cycle (pre)module in the sense of Rost over a perfect field, under mild additional hypotheses. Over a perfect field of positive characteristic, we show that the first cohomology group of a logarithmic de Rham-Witt sheaf has a partial cycle module structure. As a consequence, we show that Kato complexes of logarithmic de Rham-Witt sheaves satisfy functoriality properties similar to Rost's cycle complexes.

We show that the algebraic K-theory of semi-valuation rings with stably coherent regular semi-fraction ring satisfies homotopy invariance. Moreover, we show that these rings are regular if their valuation is non-trivial. Thus they yield examples of regular rings which are not homotopy invariant for algebraic K-theory. On the other hand, they are not necessarily coherent, so that they provide a class of possibly non-coherent examples for homotopy invariance of algebraic K-theory. As an application, we show that Temkin's relative Riemann-Zariski spaces also satisfy homotopy invariance for K-theory under some finiteness assumption.
我们证明,具有稳定相干正则半分数环的半估值环的代数 K 理论满足同调不变性。此外,我们还证明,如果这些环的估值是非三维的,那么它们就是正则环。因此,它们给出了对代数 K 理论来说不具有同调不变性的正则环的例子。另一方面,它们不一定是相干的,因此它们为代数 K 理论的同调不变性提供了一类可能是非相干的例子。作为一个应用,我们证明了滕金的相对黎曼-扎里斯基空间在某种有限性假设下也满足 K 理论的同调不变性。

We prove that Atiyah duality holds in the $infty$-category of non-$mathbb A^1$-invariant motivic spectra over arbitrary derived schemes: every smooth projective scheme is dualizable with dual given by the Thom spectrum of its negative tangent bundle. The Gysin maps recently constructed by L. Tang are a key ingredient in the proof. We then present several applications. First, we study $mathbb A^1$-colocalization, which transforms any module over the $mathbb A^1$-invariant sphere into an $mathbb A^1$-invariant motivic spectrum without changing its values on smooth projective schemes. This can be applied to all known $p$-adic cohomology theories and gives a new elementary approach to "logarithmic" or "tame" cohomology theories; it recovers for instance the logarithmic crystalline cohomology of strict normal crossings compactifications over perfect fields and shows that the latter is independent of the choice of compactification. Second, we prove a motivic Landweber exact functor theorem, associating a motivic spectrum to any graded formal group law classified by a flat map to the moduli stack of formal groups. Using this theorem, we compute the ring of $mathbb P^1$-stable cohomology operations on the algebraic K-theory of qcqs derived schemes, and we prove that rational motivic cohomology is an idempotent motivic spectrum.

Flux- and charge-quantization laws for higher gauge fields of Maxwell type -- e.g. the common electromagnetic field (the "A-field") but also the B-, RR-, and C-fields considered in string/M-theory -- specify non-perturbative completions of these fields by encoding their solitonic behaviour and hence by specifying the discrete charges carried by the individual branes (higher-dimensional monopoles or solitons) that source the field fluxes. This article surveys the general (rational-)homotopy theoretic understanding of flux- and charge-quantization via the Chern-Dold character map generalized to the non-linear (self-sourcing) Bianchi identities that appear in higher-dimensional supergravity theories, notably for B&RR-fields in D=10, for the C-field in D=11 supergravity, and for the B-field on fivebrane worldvolumes.

We establish fundamental motivic results about hermitian K-theory without assuming that 2 is invertible on the base scheme. In particular, we prove that both quadratic and symmetric Grothendieck-Witt theory satisfy Nisnevich descent, and that symmetric Grothendieck-Witt theory further satisfies d'evissage and A^1-invariance over a regular Noetherian base of finite Krull dimension, as well as a projective bundle formula. We use this to show that over a regular Noetherian base, symmetric Grothendieck-Witt theory is represented by a motivic E-infinity-ring spectrum, which we then show is an absolutely pure spectrum, answering a question of D'eglise. As with algebraic K-theory, we show that over a general base, one can also construct a hermitian K-theory motivic spectrum, representing this time a suitable homotopy invariant and Karoubi-localising version of Grothendieck-Witt theory.
