Connectivity of the slice filtration
Abstract
Using methods similar to Morel's stable connectivity theorem, we prove that, over an arbitrary field, the Tate truncation functors f0/n preserve motivic connectivity of $ S^1$-spectra. An analogous result for complexes yields a Hurewicz theorem for the Lp,n- and Lbirn-localizations over perfect fields. Over such fields, we establish a stronger connectivity property for categories of correspondences, showing that fnC preserves connectivity of motivic spectra with π-transfers, whenever π satisfies cancellation. We then use the motivic reconstruction theorem to deduce that fn, and consequently sn and f0/n, also preserve connectivity for effective (and thereby, β1-) motivic spectra. Along the way, we also establish the slice analog of the motivic (effective) reconstruction theorem, as well as the slice analog of motivic S1- and β1-recognition theorems.

An analogous result for complexes yields a Hurewicz theorem for the L^p,n- and L_bir^n-localizations over perfect fields. Over such fields, we establish a stronger connectivity property for categories of correspondences, showing that f_n^C preserves connectivity of motivic spectra with π-transfers, whenever π satisfies cancellation. We then use the motivic reconstruction theorem to deduce that f_n, and consequently s_n and f_0/n, also preserve connectivity for effective (and thereby, β^1-) motivic spectra. Along the way, we also establish the slice analog of the motivic (effective) reconstruction theorem, as well as the slice analog of motivic S^1- and β^1-recognition theorems.
