Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Mathematics, 2013. / Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. / Includes bibliographical references (pages 37-38). / Let X be a regular arithmetic curve or point (meaning a regular separated scheme of finite type over Z which is connected and of Krull dimension </= 1). We define a compactly-supported variant Kc(X) of the algebraic K-theory spectrum K(X), and establish the basic functoriality of Kc. Briefly, K, behaves as if it were dual to K. Then we give this duality some grounding: for every prime t invertible on X, we define a natural l-adic pairing between Kc(X) and K(X). This pairing is of an explicit homotopy-theoretic nature, and reflects a simple relation between spheres, tori, and real vector spaces. Surprisingly, it has the following two properties: first (a consequence of work of Rezk), when one tries to compute it the e-adic logarithm inevitably appears; and second, it can be used to give a new description of the global Artin map, one which makes the Artin reciprocity law manifest. / by Dustin Clausen. / Ph.D.
