Description
Book SynopsisThese two volumes provide a self-contained account of research on algebraic cycles and motives. Twenty-two contributions from leading figures survey the key research strands, including: Abel-Jacobi/regulator maps and normal functions; Voevodsky's triangulated category of mixed motives; conjectures of Bloch-Beilinson and Murre on filtrations on Chow groups.
