Homology of linear groups via cycles in BG x X
Abstract:- Let G be a linear algebraic group over a field k and let X be a nice
scheme over k. I will construct a homology theory from cycles in the
simplicial scheme BG x X in a style similar to the construction of
motivic cohomology by Suslin--Voevodsky. When X is the spectrum of an
algebraically closed field K, then the homology groups obtained are
precisely the homology groups of the discrete group of K-rational points
of G. Connections to Friedlander's Generalized Isomorphism Conjecture
(which predicts the homology of G(K)) will be discussed, as will some
interesting examples. Moreover, there is a connection between this
theory and equivariant homology.
This is joint work with Mark Walker.
