A¹-Colocalization and Logarithmic Cohomology Theories
[ Abstract ]
In recent joint work with Hoyois and Iwasa, we discovered that non-A¹-invariant motivic homotopy theory offers a new lens for understanding logarithmic cohomology theories. Central to this perspective is A¹-colocalization, which produces a cohomology theory whose value on a smooth scheme U agrees with the "logarithmic cohomology" of a good compactification (X,D). In many examples, including de Rham and crystalline cohomology, the quotation marks can be dropped, as A¹-colocalization recovers the classical logarithmic cohomology groups. I will explain this connection and, time permitting, sketch a proof of the duality theorem underlying this phenomenon, which states that smooth projective schemes have a dualizable motive.
