The aim of this paper is to give a detailed proof of a comparison of Voevodsky’s categories of geometric motives with and without transfers, respectively. The latter category is defined by means of h-topology introduced by Voevodsky, a topology essentially given by Zariski coverings, finite coverings and blowups.

Let $K$ be a field. The \'etale open topology on the $K$-points $V(K)$ of $K$-variety $V$ was introduced in our previous work. is non-discrete if and only large. If separably, real, $p$-adically closed then agrees with Zariski, order, valuation topology, respectively. We show that existentially definable sets perfect large fields behave well respect to this topology: such are finite unions subs...

1. Summary. My prior and current research is primarily concerned with the internal structure, representation theory, and \noncommutative aane geometry" of certain classes of associative algebras. The examples directly involved arise from algebraic quantum groups, nite dimensional Lie superalgebras, and polycyclic-by-nite-groups; in particular, Hopf (super)algebras play an essential part. My foc...

We describe the structure QHO = QHON (dependent on the positive integer number N) on the universe L which is a finite cover, of order N, of the projective line P = P(F), F an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We prove that QHO is a complete irreducible Zariski geometry of dimension 1. We also prove that QHO is not classical in the sense that the structure is not interpretable in a...

Here we take the view that small abelian categories are certain categorical versions of rings and the collection of Serre subcategories of a small abelian category is then analogous to the set of ideals of a commutative ring. We consider two topologies on the collection of Serre subcategories; one is a very direct lift of the Zariski topology, the other, dual, topology appeared in the context o...

The starting point for this dissertation is whether the concept of Zariski geometry, introduced by Hrushovski and Zilber, could be generalized to the context of nonelementary classes. This leads to the axiomatization of Zariski-like structures. As our main result, we prove that if the canonical pregeometry of a Zariski-like structure is non locally modular, then the structure interprets either ...
