The author completes his proof of the Lichtenbaum conjecture on the algebraic K-theory of an algebraically closed field. In [Invent. Math. 73, 241-245 (1983; Zbl 0514.18008)] he showed that it suffices to take one field of each characteristic. Here, by considering local rings, he shows that one needs only one field altogether. He computes the K-theory of the complex numbers (also of the real numbers), and so makes the proof independent of computations for fields of finite characteristic.
