We show a conditional exactness statement for the Nisnevich Gersten complex associated to an $\mathbb{A}^1$-invariant cohomology theory with Nisnevich descent for smooth schemes over a Dedekind ring with only infinite residue fields. As an application we derive a Nisnevich analogue of the Bloch-Ogus theorem for \'etale cohomology over a henselian discrete valuation ring with infinite residue field.
Vorst's conjecture relates the regularity of a ring with the $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy invariance of its $K$-theory. We show a variant of this conjecture in positive characteristic.
Given a small simplicial category $\C$ whose underlying ordinary category is equipped with a Grothendieck topology $\tau$, we construct a model structure on the category of simplicially enriched presheaves on $\C$ where the weak equivalences are the local weak equivalences of the underlying (non-enriched) simplicial presheaves. We show that this model category is a $t$-complete model topos and describe the Grothendieck topology $[\tau]$ on the homotopy category of $\C$ that corresponds to this model topos. After we first review a proof showing that the motivic homotopy theory is not a model topos, we specialize this construction to the category of smooth schemes of finite type, which is simplicially enriched using the standard algebraic cosimplicial object, and compare the result with the motivic homotopy theory. We also collect some partial positive results on the exactness properties of the motivic localization functor.
We prove that algebraic K-theory satisfies `pro-descent' for abstract blow-up squares of noetherian schemes. As an application we derive Weibel's conjecture on the vanishing of negative K-groups.
We show that $\mathbb{A}^1$-localization decreases the Nisnevich-stalkwise connectivity by at most one over a Dedekind scheme with infinite residue fields. For the proof, we establish a Nisnevich-local version of Gabber's geometric presentation lemma over a henselian discrete valuation ring with infinite residue field.
We show that the homotopy invariant algebraic K-theory of Weibel vanishes below the negative of the Krull dimension of a noetherian scheme. This gives evidence for a conjecture of Weibel about vanishing of negative algebraic K-groups.
We construct models for the motivic homotopy category based on simplicial functors from smooth schemes over a field to simplicial sets. These spaces are homotopy invariant and therefore one does not have to invert the affine line in order to get a model for the motivic homotopy category.
