In this paper we reduce the generalized Hilberts third problem about Dehn invariants and scissors congruence classes to the injectivity of certain Chern--Simons invariants. We also establish a version of a conjecture of Goncharov relating scissors congruence groups of polytopes and the algebraic $K$-theory of $mathbf{C}$.
We equate various Euler classes of algebraic vector bundles, including those of [BM, KW, DJK], and one suggested by M.J. Hopkins, A. Raksit, and J.-P. Serre. We establish integrality results for this Euler class, and give formulas for local indices a
t isolated zeros, both in terms of 6-functor formalism of coherent sheaves and as an explicit recipe in commutative algebra of Scheja and Storch. As an application, we compute the Euler classes associated to arithmetic counts of d-planes on complete intersections in P^n in terms of topological Euler numbers over R and C.
We establish a kind of degree zero Freudenthal Gm-suspension theorem in motivic homotopy theory. From this we deduce results about the conservativity of the P^1-stabilization functor. In order to establish these results, we show how to compute cert
ain pullbacks in the cohomology of a strictly homotopy invariant sheaf in terms of the Rost--Schmid complex. This establishes the main conjecture of [BY18], which easily implies the aforementioned results.
We show that an old conjecture of A.A. Suslin characterizing the image of a Hurewicz map from Quillen K-theory in degree $n$ to Milnor K-theory in degree $n$ admits an interpretation in terms of unstable ${mathbb A}^1$-homotopy sheaves of the general
linear group. Using this identification, we establish Suslins conjecture in degree $5$ for infinite fields having characteristic unequal to $2$ or $3$. We do this by linking the relevant unstable ${mathbb A}^1$-homotopy sheaf of the general linear group to the stable ${mathbb A}^1$-homotopy of motivic spheres.
We do three things in this paper: (1) study the analog of localization sequences (in the sense of algebraic $K$-theory of stable $infty$-categories) for additive $infty$-categories, (2) define the notion of nilpotent extensions for suitable $infty$-c
ategories and furnish interesting examples such as categorical square-zero extensions, and (3) use (1) and (2) to extend the Dundas-Goodwillie-McCarthy theorem for stable $infty$-categories which are not monogenically generated (such as the stable $infty$-category of Voevodskys motives or the stable $infty$-category of perfect complexes on some algebraic stacks). The key input in our paper is Bondarkos notion of weight structures which provides a ring-with-many-objects analog of a connective $mathbb{E}_1$-ring spectrum. As applications, we prove cdh descent results for truncating invariants of stacks extending the work of Hoyois-Krishna for homotopy $K$-theory, and establish new cases of Blancs lattice conjecture.
We define a notion of colimit for diagrams in a motivic category indexed by a presheaf of spaces (e.g. an etale classifying space), and we study basic properties of this construction. As a case study, we construct the motivic analogs of the classical
extended and generalized powers, which refine the categoric
