Kontsevich's noncommutative numerical motives (1108.3785v1)

Published 18 Aug 2011 in math.KT, math.AG, and math.AT

Abstract: In this note we prove that Kontsevich's category NCnum of noncommutative numerical motives is equivalent to the one constructed by the authors. As a consequence, we conclude that NCnum is abelian semi-simple as conjectured by Kontsevich.
