Algebraic theory of quadratic forms; Witt groups and rings (11E81) (K)-theory of quadratic and Hermitian forms (11E70)

Abstract: We study Witt groups of smooth curves and surfaces over algebraically closed fields of characteristic not two. In both dimensions, we determine both the classical Witt group and Balmer's shifted Witt groups. In the case of curves, the results are supplemented with a complete description of the (shifted) Grothendieck-Witt groups. In a second step, we analyse the relationship of Witt groups of smooth complex curves and surfaces with their real topological K-groups. They turn out to be surprisingly close: for all curves and for all projective surfaces of geometric genus zero, the Witt groups may be identified with the quotients of their even KO-groups by the images of their complex topological K-groups under realification.
