Mixed Motives and Algebraic K-Theory
The relations that could or should exist between algebraic cycles, algebraic K-theory, and the cohomology of - possibly singular - varieties, are the topic of investigation of this book. The author proceeds in an axiomatic way, combining the concepts of t

Preface
This is an almost unchanged version of my 1988 Habilitationsschrift at Regensburg. My original plan was to completely rewrite it for publication; in particular I wanted to make it more readable for the nonexpert. Finally I chose to rather publish it like it is than turn it into a long range project. So I have only made some minor corrections and added three appendices. The first one reproduces a letter from S. Bloch to me and the second one consists of an example by C. Schoen. I thank both for the permission to publish this material, and the latter for the effort of rewriting the example, which also figured in a letter to me. The third appendix contains some remarks and complements written in 1989.

Introduction
This
text
consists of three parts. In part I we define a
category of mixed motives in the setting of absolute Hodge cycles. In part II we investigate, as general as possible, relations between algebraic cycles, algebraic K-theory, and mixed structures in the cohomology of arbitrary varieties. In part III we present some conjectures on Chern characters from K-theory into £-adic cohomology for varieties over finite fields or global fields, and prove these in some (very) specific cases.
Background
The concept of motives [Ma]
,[Kl]
, [SR] was introduced
by Grothendieck to explain phenomena in different cohomology theories of algebraic varieties in a coherent way, in particular those related to algebraic cycles and weights. For example in both the £-adic and the Hodge theory the cohomology Hi(X) of a smooth projective variety is pure of weight i, the class of an algebraic cycle of codimension j can be interpreted as a morphism from the 2'
trivial structure into H J(X) (j), and the parallel formulation of the conjectures of Hodge and of Tate is that the functor se
