Voevodsky, V., Suslin, A., Friedlander, E.M.: Cycles, Transfers, and Motivic Homology Theories. The original goal that ultimately led to this volume was the construction of "motivic cohomology theory," whose existence was conjectured by A. Beilinson and S. Lichtenbaum. The fifth and last paper in the volume gives a proof of the fact that bivariant cycle cohomology groups are canonically isomorphic (in appropriate cases) to Bloch's higher Chow groups, thereby providing a link between the authors' theory and Bloch's original approach to motivic (co-)homology. pup.princeton.edu /titles/7003.html   (305 words)

3 earn math, computer science awards / Prestigious honors for problem-solving skills to Frenchman, 2 from U.S. Awarded every four years for the most outstanding mathematical research, the Fields Medals have been awarded to Vladimir Voevodsky of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, N.J., and Laurent Lafforgue of Institut des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques in Bures-sur-Yvette, France. Born in 1966 in Antony, France, Lafforgue is a scholar whose "work is characterized by formidable technical power, deep insight, and a tenacious, systematic approach," according to the International Mathematical Union's statement. The work of Voevodsky, who was born the same year in Russia and educated at Harvard, "is characterized by an ability to handle highly abstract ideas with ease and flexibility and to deploy those ideas in solving quite concrete mathematical problems." www.sfgate.com /cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/chronicle/archive/2002/08/20/MN155523.DTL   (457 words)

We can trace these developments to a lecture at Luminy by Suslin in 1987 and to Voevodsky 's Harvard thesis in 1992. What results is a powerful general theory of sheaves with transfers on schemes over a field, a theory developed primarily by Voevodsky with impressive applications by Suslin and Voevodsky. sherry.ifi.unizh.ch /friedlander97motivic.html   (585 words)
