Excellent connections in the motives of quadrics

Alexander Vishik (2011)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

In this article we prove the conjecture claiming that the motive of a real quadric is the “most decomposable” among anisotropic quadrics of given dimension over all fields. This imposes severe restrictions on the motive of arbitrary anisotropic quadric. As a corollary we estimate from below the rank of indecomposable direct summand in the motive of a quadric in terms of its dimension. This generalizes the well-known Binary Motive Theorem. Moreover, we have the description of the Tate motives involved....
