The goal of this paper is to present proofs of two results of Markus Rost: the Chain Lemma and the Norm Principle. These are the final steps needed to complete the publishable verification of the Bloch-Kato conjecture, that the norm residue maps are isomorphisms between Milnor K-theory $K_n^M(k)/p$ and etale cohomology $H^n(k,mu_p^n)$ for every prime p, every n and every field k containing 1/p. Our proofs of these two results are based on Rosts 1998 preprints, his web site and Rosts lectures at the Institute for Advanced Study in 1999-2000 and 2005.
We introduce a new perspective on the $K$-theory of exact categories via the notion of a CGW-category. CGW-categories are a generalization of exact categories that admit a Qullen $Q$-construction, but which also include examples such as finite sets a
We give conditions for the Mayer-Vietoris property to hold for the algebraic K-theory of blow-up squares of toric varieties in any characteristic, using the theory of monoid schemes. These conditions are used to relate algebraic K-theory to topologic
We compute Witt groups of maximal isotropic Grassmannians, aka. spinor varieties. They are examples of type D homogenuous varieties. Our method relies on the Blow-up setup of Balmer-Calm`es, and we investigate the connecting homomorphism via the proj
We show that if X is a toric scheme over a regular ring containing a field then the direct limit of the K-groups of X taken over any infinite sequence of nontrivial dilations is homotopy invariant. This theorem was known in characteristic 0. The affi
Let $R$ be the homogeneous coordinate ring of a smooth projective variety $X$ over a field $k$ of characteristic~0. We calculate the $K$-theory of $R$ in terms of the geometry of the projective embedding of $X$. In particular, if $X$ is a curve then
