We compute the 2‐adic effective slice spectral sequence (ESSS) for the motivic stable homotopy groups of , a motivic analogue of the connective ‐local sphere over prime fields of characteristic not two. Together with the analogous computation over algebraically closed fields, this yields information about the motivic ‐local sphere over arbitrary base fields of characteristic not two. To compute the spectral sequence, we prove several results that may be of independent interest. We describe the ‐differentials in the slice spectral sequence in terms of the motivic Steenrod operations over general base fields, building on analogous results of Ananyevskiy, Röndigs, and Østvær for the very effective cover of Hermitian K‐theory. We also explicitly describe the coefficients of certain motivic Eilenberg–MacLane spectra and compute the ESSS for the very effective cover of Hermitian K‐theory over prime fields.
Cohomological Invariants in Positive Characteristic
Abstract We determine the mod $p$ cohomological invariants for several affine group schemes $G$ in characteristic $p$. These are invariants of $G$-torsors with values in étale motivic cohomology, or equivalently in Kato’s version of Galois cohomology based on differential forms. In particular, we find the mod 2 cohomological invariants for the symmetric groups and the orthogonal groups in characteristic 2, which Serre computed in characteristic not 2. We also determine all operations on the mod $p$ étale motivic cohomology of fields, extending Vial’s computation of the operations on the mod $p$ Milnor K-theory of fields.

Abstract Given a profinite group G of finite p -cohomological dimension and a pro- p quotient H of G by a closed normal subgroup N , we study the filtration on the Iwasawa cohomology of N by powers of the augmentation ideal in the group algebra of H . We show that the graded pieces are related to the cohomology of G via analogues of Bockstein maps for the powers of the augmentation ideal. For certain groups H , we relate the values of these generalized Bockstein maps to Massey products relative to a restricted class of defining systems depending on H . We apply our study to prove lower bounds on the p -ranks of class groups of certain nonabelian extensions of $\mathbb {Q}$ and to give a new proof of the vanishing of Massey triple products in Galois cohomology.more » « less

ThisisasurveyofrecentworkonvaluesofRankin-SelbergL-functions of pairs of cohomological automorphic representations that are critical in Deligne’s sense. The base field is assumed to be a CM field. Deligne’s conjecture is stated in the language of motives over Q, and express the critical values, up to rational factors, as determinants of certain periods of algebraic differentials on a projective algebraic variety over homology classes. The results that can be proved by automorphic methods express certain critical values as (twisted) period integrals of automorphic forms. Using Langlands functoriality between cohomological automorphic repre- sentations of unitary groups, which can be identified with the de Rham cohomology of Shimura varieties, and cohomological automorphic representations of GL.n/, the automorphic periods can be interpreted as motivic periods. We report on recent results of the two authors, of the first-named author with Grobner, and of Guerberoff.more » « less

We propose a relationship between the cohomology of arithmetic groups, and the motivic cohomology of certain (Langlands-)attached motives. The motivic cohomology group in question is that related, by Beilinson’s conjecture, to the adjoint L-function at s=1. We present evidence for the conjecture using the theory of periods of automorphic forms, and using analytic torsion.more » « less

null (Ed.)We investigate constructions of higher arity self-distributive operations, and give relations between cohomology groups corresponding to operations of different arities. For this purpose we introduce the notion of mutually distributive [Formula: see text]-ary operations generalizing those for the binary case, and define a cohomology theory labeled by these operations. A geometric interpretation in terms of framed links is described, with the scope of providing algebraic background of constructing [Formula: see text]-cocycles for framed link invariants. This theory is also studied in the context of symmetric monoidal categories. Examples from Lie algebras, coalgebras and Hopf algebras are given.more » « less
