Abstract

We define Deligne–Beilinson cycle maps for Lichtenbaum cohomology of arbitrary complex algebraic varieties and show that the analogues of the Abel–Jacobi theorem and the Lefschetz theorem on $(1, 1)$-cycles hold for any complex algebraic variety if we replace the divisor class group with Voevodsky’s motivic cohomology with compact supports. For more general indices, we study the torsion part of the cycle maps. We also characterize the algebraic part of Griffiths’s intermediate Jacobians by a universal property.
