A motivic fundamental lemma
Abstract
In this paper we prove motivic versions of the Langlands-Shelstad fundamental lemma and Ngô's geometric stabilization.To achieve this, we follow the strategy from the recent proof by Groechenig, Wyss and Ziegler which avoided the use of perverse sheaves using instead p-adic integration and Tate duality.We make a key use of a construction of Denef and Loeser which assigns a virtual motive to any definable set in the theory of pseudofinite fields.1.
