BCN Spring16 Workshop on Number Theory & K-theory

Minicourse on motivic cohomology of curves and varieties over a finite field

Co-ordinators

Satoshi Kondo

Description

We give some definitions of algebraic K-theory and
some definitions of motivic cohomology groups.   We discuss some conjectures, known results, and some basic properties needed for the computation in the case of varieties over finite fields.
Secondly, we concentrate on the computation of motivic cohomology of curves over finite fields.   We will give an outline of proof, using some known strong results.   We then discuss some of my results (joint with Seidai Yasuda) on the computation of motivic cohomology and K-theory
of some higher dimensional varieties over a finite field.
