Abstract: We show that under favorable circumstances, one can construct an intersection product on the Chow groups of a tensor triangulated category

m a t h c a l T

(as defined by Balmer) which generalizes the usual intersection product on a non-singular algebraic variety. Our construction depends on the choice of an algebraic model for

m a t h c a l T

(a tensor Frobenius pair), which has to satisfy a

m a t h r m K

-theoretic regularity condition analogous to the Gersten conjecture from algebraic geometry. In this situation, we are able to prove an analogue of the Bloch formula and use it to define an intersection product similar to a construction by Grayson. We then recover the usual intersection product on a non-singular algebraic variety assuming a

m a t h r m K

-theoretic compatibility condition.

Review text

The paper under review studies a theory of Chow groups for tensor triangulated categories. Given a tensor triangulated category \(\mathcal T\) Balmer introduced Chow groups in case \(\mathcal T\) allows a dimension function \(\dim\), satisfying that it is strictly monotone with respect to inclusion of prime tensor ideals. The author then assumes that \(\mathcal T\) allows a model in the sense that it is the stable category of a Frobenius category, and needs to apply a sophisticated idempotent completion strategy. Because of this technical difficulty, the author defines a certain subgroup, called intersection Chow group, of Balmer's Chow group, and shows for this subgroup that it equals Balmer's if the relevant categories are already idempotent complete. Schlichting developed a \(K\)-theory in this situation, and the first main theorem realises, roughly speaking, the intersection Chow group as cohomology of the spectrum of the tensor triangulated category with values in the \(K\)-theory. A general argument then produces a bilinear map on the intersection Chow groups, called the intersection product. In the special case of the derived category of bounded complexes of locally free modules over a non singular algebraic variety the author shows that his intersection Chow groups are actually isomorphic to the usual Chow groups, and his intersection product coincides with the usual intersection product under the isomorphism.
