Abstract

We use the cylindrical homomorphism and a geometric construction introduced by J. Lewis to study the Lawson homology groups of certain hypersurfaces X ⊂ ℙn + 1 of degree dn + 1. As an application, we compute the rational semi-topological K-theory of generic cubics of dimensions 5, 6 and 8 and, using the Bloch-Kato conjecture, we prove Suslin's conjecture for these varieties. Using generic cubic sevenfolds, we show that there are smooth projective varieties such that the lowest nontrivial step in their s-filtration is infinitely generated and undetected by the Abel-Jacobi map.
