Chow--Kuenneth decomposition for special varieties
Abstract
In this paper we investigate Murre's conjecture on the Chow--K\"unneth decomposition for two classes of examples. We look at the universal families of smooth curves over spaces which dominate the moduli space g, in genus at most 8 and show existence of a Chow--K\"unneth decomposition. The second class of examples include the representation varieties of a finitely generated group with one relation. This is done in the setting of equivariant cohomology and equivariant Chow groups to get equivariant Chow--K\"unneth decompositions.
