Abstract

Recent work of Inna Zakharevich and Jonathan Campbell has focused on building machinery for studying scissors congruence problems via algebraic K-theory, and applying these tools to studying the Grothendieck ring of varieties. In this paper we give a new application of their framework: we construct a K-theory space that recovers the classical SK (“schneiden und kleben,” German for “cut and paste”) groups for manifolds on , and we construct a derived version of the Euler characteristic.
