Motivic equivalence of algebraic groups
Abstract
Two semisimple algebraic groups of the same type are said to be motivic equivalent if the motives of the associated projective homogeneous varieties of the same type are isomorphic. We give general criteria of motivic equivalence in terms of the so-called higher Tits p-indices of algebraic groups. These results allow to give a complete classification of absolutely simple classical groups up to motivic equivalence in terms of the underlying algebraic structures. Among other applications of this classification, we deduce that there is a bijection between the stable birational equivalence classes of Severi-Brauer varieties of fixed dimension and the motivic equivalence classes of projective linear groups of the same rank.
