Voevodsky has given two different proofs of the Milnor conjecture, based on
the same principle but differing in the tools involved to obtain the central point
(actually the final step).
The first one appeared in June 1995 and was based on the
conjectural existence of a geometrical analog of the Morava K-theories of algebraic
topology.
The second one appeared about one year later (December 1996).
The use of Morava K-theories was replaced by Margolis motivic cohomology,
which is defined using certain operations on motivic cohomology
called Steenrod operations by analogy with the classical one acting on singular
cohomology.
The proof was finally published seven years later. It is based on the
second approach together with some modifications.
As a first objective of the summer school, we want to provide the audience
an introduction to the homotopy theory of schemes and to the theory of mixed
motives.
The second objective is to give a detailed overview of the proof of the Milnor
conjecture, as an illustration of the theories introduced in the first part.
