Matthias Wendt (Osnabrück): Motives of rigid-analytic varieties

This is the first in a series of four talks which aims at an introduction to the theory of motives for rigid-analytic varieties as developed by Ayoub. In the first talk, I will mostly discuss the motivations for defining and studying rigid-analytic varieties and formulate some results (by Ayoub and Vezzani) that can be proved for the categories of motives of rigid-analytic varieties. In particular, I will formulate the recent rigidity theorem for rigid-analytic motives, proved by Bambozzi and Vezzani. While the first talk should mainly convey ideas and motivation, the remaining three talks will give more details to understand the proof of the rigidity theorem.
