A vanishing theorem for quadratic intersection multiplicities (2112.05200v1)

Abstract: We study intersection theoretic problems in the setting of Chow-Witt groups with coefficients in a fixed Milnor-Witt cycle algebra over a perfect field. We prove that the product maps on such groups satisfy the following property: given two points in a regular local scheme with supports which do not intersect properly, their product vanishes. This gives an analogue of Serre's vanishing result for intersection multiplicities.
