Algebraic connective \(K\)-theory and the niveau filtration (Q2481808)

The author gives the definition of the algebraic connective \(K\)-theory for quasi-projective schemes of finite type over the base field \(k\) as the \(D^2_{p,q}\) groups of the Brown-Gersten-Quillen spectral sequence. In topological case the connective \(K\)-theory shares many properties of singular homology and topological \(K\)-groups. The author shows that many properties of Chow groups and algebraic \(K\)-groups are shared by the connective algebraic \(K\)- groups. The author also proves that the Quillen \(K\)-groups are localizations of the connective \(K\)-groups at a distinguished element \(\beta\).
