Description
The Period Conjecture makes a qualitative prediction about all linear relations between the periods of motives. It is a theorem in the case of 1-motives, e.g. for numbers like logarithms or algebraic numbers or periods of elliptic curves over number fields.
In joint work with Martin Kalck, we explain how to deduce dimension formulas via the structure theory of finite dimensional algebras over perfect fields.
