Bloch's formula
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
In algebraic K-theory, a branch of mathematics, Bloch's formula, introduced by Spencer Bloch for , states that the Chow group of a smooth variety X over a field is isomorphic to the cohomology of X with coefficients in the K-theory of the structure sheaf
; that is,
where the right-hand side is the sheaf cohomology; is the sheaf associated to the presheaf
, U Zariski open subsets of X. The general case is due to Quillen.[1] For q = 1, one recovers
. (see also Picard group.)
The formula for the mixed characteristic is still open.
