We settle a question recently raised by Mark Green and Phillip Griffiths concerning the existence of Bloch-Gersten-Quillen-type resolutions of algebraic K-theory sheaves on infinitesimal thickenings of nonsingular varieties, and the relationships between these sequences and their \"tangent sequences,\" expressed in terms of absolute K\\\"ahler differentials. More generally, we place Green and Griffiths' concrete geometric approach to the infinitesimal theory of Chow groups in a natural and formally rigorous structural context, expressed in terms of nonconnective K-theory, negative cyclic homology, and the relative algebraic Chern character", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-01-29T17:46:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14C25", "19D55" ], "keywords": [ "chow groups", "relative chern character", "infinitesimal theory", "algebraic chern character", "nonsingular quasiprojective algebraic variety" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150107525D" } } }
