Colloquium - Valery Lunts
Title: Survey of Grothendieck ring of varieties and motivic measures
Speaker: Valery Lunts (Indiana University Bloomington)
Abstract: Grothendieck introduced the group K(Var) of algebraic varieties which is generated by isomorphism classes of varieties subject to "cut and paste" relations ("scissors congruence"). This group is naturally a commutative ring. I will discuss a few interesting "motivic measures" which are homomorphisms from K(Var) to other rings. Some applications to rationality of motivic zeta function will be discussed.
