Ph.D. Oral Defense: "Regulators on Higher Chow Groups"

Abstract: Building on Kerr, Lewis and Mueller-Stach's work on the rational regulator, we prove the existence of an integral regulator on higher Chow complexes and give an explicit expression. This puts firm ground under some earlier results and speculations on the torsion in higher cycle groups by K-L-M, Petras, and Kerr-Yang.
